How to Get Concealer Under the Eye to Stay on All Day
Most women (and men, too) will get slight dark circles under the eyes. They can be very dark or only slightly noticeable, but putting a bit of concealer under the eyes will not only cover the dark skin but also give your eyes a little glow. There are plenty of under-eye concealers on the market, but whether you're paying $10 or $75, if you do not put the concealer on properly it won't even last one hour. Does this Spark an idea?
Things You'll Need
- Under-eye concealer
- Concealer brush
- Foundation powder

Instructions

1
Apply dime-sized dot of concealer to your finger.

2
Dab up only just enough concealer to coat the tip of the brush.
-
-
3
Brush the concealer lightly under the eyes from the outside corner of the eye inward.
-
4
Pat on a very light layer of foundation power under the eye. Use the foundation pad to blend the concealer and powder together.

5
Dip a powder brush into a sheer translucent powder just so a dusting is on the brush.

6
Brush the under-eye area lightly with the sheer translucent powder. The sheer translucent powder will set the makeup, making it last all day long.

Tips & Warnings
Concealer should not be applied under the eyes with your fingers. This can actually hurt the sensitive skin under the eyes, causing bruising (and darker circles). Always use a concealer brush or sponge. If you don't have one, only use your ring finger only (less pressure is applied with this finger than with the middle or pointer fingers).
