Green and Yellow Concealers

Okay I have a question about concealers:
I've heard about green and yellow ones - green for redness and yellow for under-eye circles. I was wondering if anyone has tried using these colors and if they actually worked/what brands would be good. I have a friend who uses a green concealer from Physician's Formula and she says it works for her, but she's the only one I know who uses it and I wanted more opinions.
Also, I have some darkish faded scars and i was wondering if the yellow concealer (since it's supposed to be for dark circles) would work for it rather than green (which is supposed to be for redness).
Any thoughts and opinions would be much appreciated! Happy

Hmm, I don't use them personally, but a friend of mine uses the Smashbox ones and loves them. I believe they have the green (redness), apricot (eye circles, sunspots, veins), and purple (natural yellow)

I use the Physician's Formula green concealer around my nose and on any blemishes to neutralize the red, but I also use MAC's Select coverup over top to make it all blend in Happy

i have a Quo pallet with a yellow, green, mauve and beige which i bought at shoppers drug mart and it actually works really well

from the back of the thing, it says:
Mauve (Pink-ish) - brightens sallow skin
Mint (Green) - helps remove redness
Yellow - Helps remove darkness
Beige - neutralize uneven skin tones

i use the beige on a few acne scars and it helps =)

I use the yellow one from physicians formula for under eye circles and I like it. It blends really nice and holds the concealer in place.
