Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Eye Cream
  • Creamy Concealer
  • Small Makeup Brush to apply Concealer
  • Foundation
  • Makeup Sponge
  • Loose Powder
  • Large Powder Brush
  • Mirror
  1. Step 1

    Dab eye cream under your eyes and let the skin absorb it. This will prevent your makeup from caking.

  2. Step 2

    Brush on the concealer, starting at the inner area of your eye and working your way to the outer area. Brush on a thin line of the concealer along your eye socket.

  3. Step 3

    Feather the concealer out and up using your fingertip, until it reaches your lash line and the end of your eye.

  4. Step 4

    Apply foundation using a makeup sponge.

  5. Step 5

    Use the large brush to apply a dusting of loose powder to set your makeup.

Tips & Warnings
  • Use a yellow-tinted concealer if your under-eye circles have a blue hue.
  • Use a peach-tinted concealer if your under-eye circles are more purple or green in appearance.
