10 Concealers We Love Under £10
CYO Tailor Shade Concealer Palette, £3.25 (was £6.50)
Best For: Concealing & Contouring
A clever compact, CYO’s palette has primarily been created to help you conceal, but the other tones and textures mean you can highlight and contour, too. The bouncy, creamy formulas make application a breeze, melting into the skin as they’re applied. Plus, for £3.25, the coverage is seriously impressive, too.

E.l.f Flawless Concealer, £5
Best For: A Full-Coverage Finish
Creamy, malleable and lightweight, e.l.f.’s cult concealer is available in 18 shades and gets rave reviews for good reason. It covers every skincare woe – from acne to visible pores and scarring – with a silky-smooth finish that never looks cakey or dry. Expect a luminous dry down and skin to feel plump and nourished, thanks to moisturising squalane which helps maintain hydration.

L’Oreal Infallible Longwear More Than Concealer, £4 (was £9.99)
Best For: Longevity & No Budging
This cover-up comes in a whopping 25 shades and is designed to contour, as well as provide your usual concealing needs. We also love the huge, jumbo brush it comes with, which makes application easier than ever. Just dab on a few dots (a little goes a long way) and buff in with a big fluffy brush.

LA Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer, £4-5
Best For: All-Over Application
Long wearing and crease-resistant, LA Girl’s silky concealer works to even skin tone and hide dull, red patches. It’s full-coverage too, filling pores and fine lines for an all-over even base. Choose a shade that’s one or two tones lighter than your complexion for the best results.

5. Maybelline Dream Brightening Concealer Crayon, £4.99
Best For: Adding Luminosity & Concealing
This chunky crayon targets the eye area rather than the whole face. Formulated with light-reflecting pearl pigments, it brings a subtle luminosity that conceals both darkness and puffiness around the eyes – making it a make-up artist must-have . A brilliant, fool-proof concealer that’s great for on-the-go, too.

NYX Concealer Wand, £6
Best For: Concealing Redness & Uneven Tone
NYX’s must-have concealer is brilliant for masking blemishes, dark spots and under eye bags without looking heavy thanks to the emollient-rich formula. It’s thick though, so remember to just use a little and tap it on with your finger. This will help warm the product up for an even, smooth blend. Don’t be afraid to use it on other areas of the face too – it works well on uneven patches and to conceal any redness.

Revlon Photoready Candid Antioxidant Concealer, £6.99
Best For: Added Skincare Benefits
This affordable concealer covers up everything from acne to dark circles, brightening the skin as it goes thanks to the caffeine-infused formula. Its user-friendly oval applicator is brilliant too, mimicking the shape of a fingertip for application that wears well all day. Dot it on sparingly and only to the parts of the skin that really need to be evened out.

Revolution Fast Base Concealer, £3 (was £5)
Best For: Easy Application & Highlighting
Whether you’re covering blemishes or redness, you’ll be hard pushed to find a hard-working formula at a more affordable price point than this one. Giving the same coverage as high-end liquid concealers do, it’s no wonder it is so well-loved by both make-up artists and industry insiders worldwide. It doesn’t dry
down instantly either, so you have time to play with the formula and really buff it in.

Wet ‘n’ Wild Photo Focus Concealer, £3.95
Best For: Priming Lids & Minimal Caking
Tested to be white-cast free under different photo lighting, this bargain concealer never leaves behind any tell-tale caking or white patches. It blends seamlessly into the skin and works well on the lids as a good base for eye make-up, preventing creasing and flaking. Experts recommend investing in a lighter shade too for subtle highlighting.

Benefit Boi-ing Mini Cakeless Concealer, £10
Best For: Blendability & A Beautiful, Satin Finish
It’s a mini, but a little of this cult concealer goes a long way. Full-coverage, it delivers a beautiful finish that blends easily. The texture moves with your skin to prevent the product from breaking up, while still covering all imperfections and any areas you’re trying to hide.
