Make Up Games for Under-Eye Circles


Tired? Even if you’re not you might still have unsightly under-eye circles. When faced with these huge dark rings under your eyes, you’ll want to take advantage of your make up games to make them go away.

Start by using a concealer that’s one shade lighter than your skin tone. A concealer too light will make your eyes look like reversed raccoon eyes. Dab the concealer from the corner of the eye out to the tip. Use the tip of your finger to blend it into your skin naturally. Next, apply your base over the concealer and your face, ensuring you’re doing a good job smoothing it over.

Finally, use a highlighter on your cheekbones just under your eyes. A bit of bright shine on your cheeks will make your eyes shine. A dab of highlighter at the corner of your eye can make your eyes shine as well. Avoid putting mascara on the bottom of your eyelashes as this can make the eye look heavy and dark again. Use a light application on the top lashes only and be sure to curl them first.
