Sleep in a Jar color recommendation!

Hi,
I'm interested in trying out Sleep in a Jar, but I'm wandering which color I should get. I have very pale and olive-yellow toned skin, and I have kind of intense under-eye circles, which are a browny-purply color. At MAC I'm NC15.
I'd get the original yellow-toned one, but the fact that it says it does not offer coverage confused me. Will it cover my circles or will I end up with those unattractive light grey circles?

Thank you very much for your time! :)

Concealers are tricky. They are even trickier than matching foundation. Since we offer samples, my recommendation is to try samples of the Sleep in a Jar in yellow and one of the peaches (probably Extra Light Peach).

Thank you for the reply! That's what I was thinking as well, but could you explain to me if the yellow one does offer coverage? Because it just seems so strange to me that the website says it doesn't. I mean, even if it's cancelling out the purply tones, isn't that still considered coverage? Haha, sorry for being so analytical!

It will be more like sheer color for color correction than a heavy product for concealing, if that makes sense?
