Concealer for very deep skin with neutral undertone and peptides
Very deep skin with a neutral undertone is a combination rarely acknowledged in the makeup industry. The skin has a rich, ebony-like pigment depth without pronounced warmth or coolness — a balanced tone where neither gold nor red dominates. For those with this skin tone, it is recognizable: golden shades can turn orange, red shades feel too warm, and cool shades appear ashy gray on the skin. As a result, many women with this undertone have had to resort to mixing or compromising for decades.
DPR16 recognizes this nuance and offers a true neutral balance at maximum pigment depth. The concealer blends with the skin's natural appearance without adding unwanted warmth or coolness. Active Peptide Complex, niacinamide, and bioactive marine extract provide nourishing effects that are visible immediately and over time in the eye contour.

- Fades fine lines through peptides with daily use
Active ingredients
Active Peptide Complex: A precise blend of peptides that communicate with the skin at the cellular level and encourage collagen production. For very deep skin, which often has strong natural resilience but eventually loses collagen around the eyes, peptides provide targeted support for firmness and smoothness over time.
Niacinamide: A form of vitamin B3 that works on multiple levels for very deep skin. It slows the transfer of melanin to the upper skin layers and visibly reduces post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation — one of the most common skin issues in rich pigmentations. At the same time, niacinamide strengthens the skin barrier by stimulating ceramide production.
Bioactive Marine Extract: This ingredient derived from the ocean visibly brightens the eye contour and stimulates collagen production in the dermis. For very deep skin with a neutral undertone, it provides a natural brightening that enhances the skin's own richness without applying a separate camouflaging layer.
Cucumber extract: A mild plant extract that hydrates, soothes, and helps reduce puffiness under the eyes. A calm, smooth eye contour allows natural light to enhance the rich skin tone.
How to use
- Cleanse the skin thoroughly and apply a hydrating eye cream or moisturizer
- Click the pen slowly until a small amount of product appears on the applicator
- Apply the concealer in an inverted triangle from the inner corner of the eye to the top of the cheek
- Build a second layer if needed for deeply pigmented dark circles
- Always finish your morning routine with a daily SPF of at least factor 30

Frequently asked questions
How do I know if my very deep skin has a neutral undertone?
The easiest test is to study your skin in different lighting conditions: if your skin sometimes has a warm glow and sometimes a cooler appearance, your undertone is probably neutral. A second clue: both gold and silver jewelry suit you well, and you feel equally confident in cool jewel tones as in warm earth tones.
What is the difference between DPR15 and DPR16?
DPR15 has a pronounced red (warm) undertone, while DPR16 has a neutral undertone without distinct warmth or coolness. If you have skin with a clear wine-red or burgundy glow, DPR15 is the right match. For a balanced very deep skin without pronounced warmth, DPR16 is the choice.
Many concealers are not developed for my skin tone. Why does DPR16 work?
DPR16 is formulated from the ground up for very deep skin with a neutral undertone and is not a darker version of a lighter shade. The pigment balance and undertone are tailored to the natural composition of this skin tone, allowing the concealer to blend seamlessly rather than forming a separate layer. The difference lies in the specific development for your skin type, not in an extension of an existing range.
