7 Best Concealers for Dark Spots

Although dark sports and hyperpigmentation can be frustrating at the best of times, a good concealer really does make a world of difference. Look for a concealer that is buildable, high in coverage and will stay put throughout the day, all whilst not appearing cakey. Tried and tested, below are the best full coverage concealers to banish your dark spots and hyperpigmentation. Tip: Choose a concealer shade that has peach undertones to neutralise dark spots.  I also always recommend setting your concealer with a translucent powder to stop it from moving and last you ALL day and night – try the Cover FX Perfect Setting Powder or the Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Setting Powder.
