#1- Concealment

This last week has been crazy...lots of stressful deadlines and sleepless nights. To help cover my tell-tale signs, I found a new best friend! Good concealer! This is the product that will help hide dark circles from all nighters and pesky blemishes from stressful studying. Since I know I'm not the only person with this problem, I'm offering my concealer advice.



For those deep, dark circles, find a yellow-based concealer. The yellow tint will help balance out the purple tones under your eyes. When applying the concealer, use a small brush or your ring finger because the skin under your eyes is very sensitive and thin…you need to be very gentle.

Apply the concealer over the dark circles and a little below…this helps reflect light up and better camouflage the shadow.

Find a creamy concealer that matches your skin tone perfectly. If you get one that is too light, you will end up highlighting your blemish and if you get a concealer that is too dark, you will end up with a brown spot on your face…you need a concealer that is just right. Also, be sure to check the color in the sun because it offers the most accurate lighting.
