Concealer makes under eye skin look dry and flaky?

I've tried using mac and elizabeth arden concealers for the under eye skin and when i first put it on it looks fine but after a little while the skin under my eye looks dry and flaky so i am always rewashing my face with burts bees makeup wash. i just want the skin under my eyes to look smooth and not flaky.





by the way...before i put the concealer on my skin is smooth but when i apply the concealer it starts to look dry. :(


please help with suggestions on how to fix this problem!

Hm it might have to do with the type of concealer. Try a mineral powder concealer instead. I know Bare Minerals has one for sure. It could also just be dry skin that doesn't show up until you put makeup on. Try a moisturizer for your eyes.Concealer makes under eye skin look dry and flaky?
You should try a moisturizer before you apply concealer, I find that Dove works best for my skin but everyone has different skin, try different brands. Before resorting to moisturizers, try gently exfoliating and using a little bit of Vaseline.
That happens to me too! I use a little bit of Estee Lauder Idealist and mix it with the concealer or apply Idealist first. You need to apply some sort of moisturizer first.
i would recommend using a thicker moisturizer. a good one is Aveeno Positively Radiant. I use it and I love it! I had the same problem as you before too. You can also try putting a bit of moisturizer into your concealer.
Is the concealer your using a liquid? This could be a big problem... especially if you have sensitive skin or live in a humid area. Try a powder. Theres a great one by Physicians Formula.
use eye cream. i suggest using like cover girl liquid concealer. it works magic!
Its probably your skin itself that is dry, not the concealer. If your skin is dry, then applying concealer will exaggerate it and make it look EXTRA dry. Try using moisturizer for a week or so, morning and night. then try your concealer again and see how things work out
Put moisterizer on every single night before you go to bed.
I think that please is not dry
I use clean makeup by Covergirl. it is a liquid and it works very well. It doesn't make my skin look or feel dry.
