I’m actually in between shades for under eyes.
The artist who matched me said she thought the darker one was better. In store I tried both the Medium Neutral and Med-Dark Warm, one on each side. It’s one that is a perfect match on my skin but darkens after 5 minutes.
Urban Decay Naked Skin Weightless Complete Coverage Concealer ($28 for 5 ml/0.16 fl oz) in Medium Neutral and Med-Dark Warm is something that is raved about by so many. It held up well in the high 80 degree heat for me (I set it with Laura Mercier Translucent Loose Powder). It has a slight glow without looking too glowy that makes the face look younger with brightness. It is on the creamy side so if you have super oily skin it might be too dewy for you. There’s no caking or emphasizing of lines. Under the eyes it makes the skin look smooth. It covers smoothly and has a thinner texture making it feel truly weightless. Medium-Golden is my current match for under eyes. I say they surprised me because the color range look liked it skipped my match. Bare Minerals bareSkin Concealer ($20 for 6 ml/0.20 fl oz) in Medium-Golden and Tan were both pleasant surprises. For me as I get older I find I need and prefer more coverage (I’m 34 right now). If you don’t have a lot you need to cover under the eyes and need just a tad of brightening this is good. 
I found it worked under the eyes to brighten and conceal but in a very natural minimal way.
YSL Touche Éclat Radiant Touch Concealer ($42 for 0.1 oz) in 5.5 is a classic I’ve been using on and off. This has a skincare element to hydrate and plump the skin. It stays put although you do need to set with powder. It conceals and brightens dark circles like magic. It’s one that’s been on my radar for a long time but I’m usually not a fan of click-type brushes because they seem so unsanitary to me. Charlotte Tilbury The Retoucher Conceal and Treat Stick ($35 for 3.5 ml/0.12 fl oz) in #3 is a new concealer to me. 
A little goes a long way and my tube has lasted forever without going bad (one lasted 2 years). If you apply it cold and straight from the tube, it can look thick. The trick is to warm it up with the fingers to apply. It covers under the eye really well, doesn’t cake, lasts all day and blends really well. It’s extremely pricey but well worth the splurge. Clé de Peau Beauté Concealer ($70 for 5 g/.17 oz) in Almond is one of my all time favorite concealers.If you have oily skin or find that you only need a tiny bit of brightening/coverage this one is good, but I wasn’t thrilled with it. I found 5 to be a good match but the coverage is minimal and texture is on the dry side. It comes in a twist up stick form and has sheer to medium coverage. Surratt Beauty Surreal Skin Concealer ($50 for 0.06 oz) in #5 is the most expensive concealer I’ve tried in the per oz sense.
