Concealing dark circles can be a challenge. No matter who you are you’ve probably got a little bit (or a lot) of darkness underneath your eyes, regardless of how much sleep you’ve had! Whilst you aren’t likely to achieve completely perfect, undetectable dark circles underneath your eyes without the help of photoshop or an entire tube of concealer, there is one tip in particular that can help make the world of difference..
When people ask me what my favourite makeup tip of all time is, I
respond with this: mix orange lipstick into your concealer. It’s
basically foolproof and something anyone and everyone can utilize and
master.
Step 1. Apply a small amount of concealer that matches your skintone (or is slightly lighter) onto the back of your hand.
Step 2. Alongside the concealer apply a swipe of creamy orange lipstick (bonus points for one that has a small amount of shimmer which will help reflect light)
Step 3. Using your finger mix the two shades together until it becomes a creamy peachy shade.
Step 4. Start by patting the concealer underneath your eyes and slowly building up the coverage.
Step 5. If desired, go in with an “airbrush” style buffing brush and gently blend and buff the concealer into the skin, add more product as desired.
Finished result.
