How Sarah Jessica Parker (and 15 Other Celebrities) You Didn’t Know Had Dark Circles Are Covering Them Up

1. Sarah Jessica Parker: Roc Retinol Correxion Line Eye Cream is what SJP considers to be her “holy grail product.” It de-puffs and reduces both crow’s feet and dark circles — all things the Sex in the City star likely deals with more regularly as she ages.

2. Drew Barrymore: Although the 50-year-old actor is ageless, she swears by Flower Beauty Bright Eye Under Eye Corrector, a top-seller from her cosmetics brand. She uses it regularly to cover up both dark circles and blemishes.

3. Gal Gadot: Despite Gal Gadot’s flawlessness, even she uses Bobbi Brown’s color correctors when her dark circles are pronounced from traveling. They’re great for a quick and easy fix.

4. Jennifer Garner: As Jennifer Garner has gotten older, she’s gained an appreciation for Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair Retinol Pro+ Anti-Wrinkle Eye Cream. It helps erase wrinkles and brighten up dark circles, which she likely have become more pronounced over the years.

5. Camila Alves: Model Camila Alves (who is married to Matthew McConaughey) swears by Skyn Iceland Hydro Cool Eye Patches. It’s useful in reducing dark circles and puffiness.

“I love this hydro cool firming eye gel from [Skyn Iceland] as a quick fix for the day,” she said in an Instagram post. “This is NOT an ad or sponsored. I just love this thing and it works in 10 minutes!” Apparently, the secret ingredient is caffeine: “I’ve been using [it] because it has caffeine in it,” she explained to E! Online. “I find anything with some sort of caffeine in it really helps under my eyes.”

7. Chrissy Teigen: Chrissy Teigen spends $200 to get rid of her dark circles using La Mer’s The Lifting Eye Serum and it clearly works.

“Of course, I warm up the products with my hands first and then press it gently,” Teigen’s makeup artist Mary Philips said in an interview. “I pat [some] in with my ring finger under the eyes.”

8. Kendall Jenner: While Kendall Jenner is naturally beautiful, she uses NARS Radiant Creamy Concealer to cover dark circles and blemishes, and has been for years.

9. Gigi Hadid: Maybelline’s Instant Age Rewind Concealer makes you look young and well-rested… which is why Gigi Hadid swears by it. That’s right — the runway queen is yet another celebrity with dark circles, and she uses drugstore makeup to get rid of them.

10. Lizzo: Even though she’s gorgeous either way, “Boys” singer Lizzo deals with dark circles. But she uses Charlotte Tilbury’s Magic Away Liquid Concealer — her makeup artist even used it for her 2021 Grammy’s look.

11. Hailey Bieber: As a skincare queen, we can trust that Hailey Bieber knows how to get rid of problems like dark circles. She’s a fan of Dieux Forever Eye Masks, which contain nourishing glycerin, niacinimide and peptides.

12. Keira Knightley: Although Keira Knightley is a beauty queen, she’s had to find ways to combat her inevitable dark circles. She uses rosehip oil on her face before she goes to bed to fend off those bags.

13. Olivia Wilde: There’s a reason Olivia Wilde always looks bright-eyed and bushy-tailed: True Botanicals Radiance Eye Cream. It directly addresses dark circles, which is something Wilde has embraced for years now.

14. Alison Williams: Get Out star Alison Williams admitted to using Yon-Ka Phyto Contour Eye Cream regularly. And Byrdie reports that its 94% natural ingredients effectively “erase” dark circles… yes, please.

16. Mandy Moore: Although Mandy Moore hasn’t explicitly said (or shown off) her dark circles, she uses Tula Glow and Get It Cooling and Brightening Eye Balm regularly, InStyle reports, which is used to brighten dark circles. Needless to say, it’s working.
