Conceal Eye Baggage

Some dark circles or eye bags may be due to stress, lack of sleep, or simply heredity. Eye creams won't be able to cure them, so the best trick is to cover them up!


1. Make sure you sleep well

2. Using a concealer brush and light reflective concealer

3. Choose a light reflective concealer. There are many types of concealers on the market, but liquid light reflecting concealers will give better results for under the eyes. Pick one just a shade lighter than your foundation.

4. Tilt your head down so that the raised dark circles under your eyes are more obvious. The bottom of the bags is where the shadow falls and appears darker than the rest so this is where to concentrate coverage.

5. Apply your concealer by lightly dabbing on some along the bottom of the bags. Use a little at first and build up slowly - do not cake it on.

6. Blend, blend, blend the concealer into your skin with your finger. Use a light rolling movement.

7. Try to keep the line under the bag the brightest, so the shadow is neutralized. Apply a little more concealer to the eye, and blend fully up to the lash line, so the skin tone is fully evened out.

The fastest solution for dark circles is to apply concealer. Choose a gold-based color that matches your skin shade exactly (the gold will counter-act the blue of the under eye circles).

The most common mistake made when applying concealer is choosing a color that's too light. Another common problem is putting the concealer only under the eye. You should apply it all around the eye area, and be sure to blend well. Set the concealer with a light dusting of translucent face powder. To avoid drawing unwanted attention to your under eye area, do not apply eyeliner or mascara to your lower lashes.

Apply a white shimmer pencil to the inner corner of the eye, as that is often the darkest part.
