    Question Dark Circles

    i have circles under my eyes, but they arent really dark, only when there is not much light on my face then they look like dark circles. I want to find a way to cover them, but i have them even after i use concealer!
    is it my concealer that is bad? or is there just nothing i can do about my circles? help please!

    I have the same problem. It is nothing wrong with your concealer, it is just not right for you. If it is an liquid one, that swap over to a cake one that you need a dry brush to apply, concealerbrush... always use a concealer color that is the step lighter than your own skincolor. And don't forget to drink plenty of water to get away with those cicrles, not that I do, I'm to lazy ^^ Good luck (Y)

    iv got very bad dark circles because im severely anaemic, so no it's possiby not your concealer, dark circles lke yours are common. using a sponge-applied concealr works for me (i use 2true from supedrug) because the liquid consistency of it reflects the light away , hiding the darkcircles; and if it works on me it's sure to work for everyone.

    Whether the concealer formula is a shade lighter or you're using a cream or liquid, it won't matter if you are using the wrong shade. Using a concealer with a pink or peach undertone will help neutralize the dark purply gray or brown undertones of unwanted under eye circles. Anything with a yellow undertone can actually pronounce them and make them look worse. There are also several eye creams on the market that will help reduce the appearance of under eye circles. Neutrogena makes a nice one. I apologize, I can't recall the exact name but it's very reasonably priced. I use MAC Fast Response Eye Cream, they also have MAC Moisturelush Eye Cream which has a subtle iridescense to it which also helps to brighten the area.

    Concealer ! Make sure it is two shades lighter than your actual shade, so it blend the DARK circles lighter. I recommend liquid.

    The very second tube on the left, she means, where the bottomless mascara applicator is positioned, the tube has a black lid see? and a skin colored body? in between that and the concealer stick applicator.
