13 Ways I Cover Up My Dark Circles and Zits

I think there are two types of makeup in this world: the makeup you want (like these awesome mascaras or gorgeous lip colors) and the makeup you need. I, for instance, will scare small children if I go outside before covering my dark circles, so concealer is one of those makeup items that isn't exactly fun but is definitely necessary in my case.

Do you have anything like that? Odds are, most of us have a blemish or dark circle that could stand a little camouflage. To help you out in that arena, we gathered these top-rated concealers on TotalBeauty.com. Our readers say these will get the job done right -- no caking, flaking or frightening the neighbors' kids.
