Whether you’ve stayed out a little too late, your allergies are out of control or it’s just hereditary– we’ve all had moments where our under eye area was looking a bit puffy. I’ve got a fool proof way to cover dark circles and under eye bags. Read on to see how I fake a full night’s sleep with just a few pats of concealer.
Step 1: Color Correct
Darkness under your eyes can be cancelled out with an orange color corrector. This also works well for covering dark marks and hyper pigmentation. I use Make Up For Ever 5 Camouflage Cream Palette in Dark 4 and blend the orange color corrector onto my under eye area with my ring finger because it has the lightest touch– perfect for the delicate under eye area.
Step 2: Apply Concealer
Choose a concealer that is 1 to 2 shades lighter than your skin. I like L.A. Girl Pro Conceal HD Concealer in Toffee. Use a flat concealer brush to apply concealer at the very bottom where the puffiness under your eyes is. Then use your finger to blend up.
Step 3: Set with powder
This step is integral to keeping your makeup in place all day. Either choose a translucent powder or a powder the same shade as your skin and apply a light layer to the under eye area with a fluffy brush.
All done, that’s how to cover dark circles!
This was a super easy and simple tutorial to cover dark circles and those pesky under eye bags. Now you can binge watch Netflix until 3am and everyone will be none the wiser. Thanks for stopping by.
