Hello!
I seem to have the hardest time finding a concealer that works with my skin tone and stays where I put it. I have a little bit of darkness under my eyes that drives me crazy. I have tried one from clinique that matches color-wise, as well as one from kryolan; clinique was too light and kryolan was too heavy. Both had this strange creasing under my eye, despite using a primer. I have had strange reactions to a few of mac's products, so I would like to avoid them.
Is there a concealer that doesn't crease and comes in more than a few shades?
You want to use a highly pigmented product, so you only need a small amount to cover imperfections. This way it won't crease, and it will also stay put much longer.
It's a good idea to use a color corrector, but I actually prefer to use Kevyn Aucoin's Sensual Skin Enhancer, it's extremely creamy and concentrated, and doubles as concealer and foundation, depending on how you use it. I've found I never need to use a corrector with it because it's so pigmented it covers anything. It's pricey but the jar will last you for years.
Becca cosmetics has a wide range of colors and their concealer isn't cakey. I also like the YSL touche eclat, but remember that it's a highlighting concealer.
Laura mercier's secret camouflage powder is amazing to set any concealer
This was an problem for me as well. I started using Touche Eclat then setting it with Laura Mercier's Secret Camouflage powder, and it looks amazing. I use a cheap elf powder puff and pat the powder on then wipe the excess off. For some reason only the Secret Camouflage powder has worked for me, all the other powders I tried looked cakey. So, even if you choose a different concealer, definitely get the powder.
ALL concealers will crease in certain conditions. If you are moisturized under the eye, don't go too heavy on the concealer/corrector, powder afterwards and a sealing spray....this will be the most preventive.

For Keromask, what colors would be a good choice for a well-rounded makeup kit? I wish I could buy all the colors.
