Find the perfect recipe

The best eye concealer is a formula that reflects matte light, so opt for a reflective liquid instead of thicker, creamier pigments. The Radiant Lift Concealer is the perfect beauty product choice as it combines a radiant finish with nourishing vitamins to leave the entire eye area looking rested.

If you're also looking for a concealer that works on blemishes, try the Facefinity All Day Flawless Concealer, which uses Flexi-hold™ technology for medium coverage that moves with the skin. While not as radiant as the Radiant Lift, it gives you a natural and sophisticated finish and does an excellent job of covering up super dark circles under your eyes.

Correct dark circles

Color correction is the best secret to hiding signs of too many late nights as it helps neutralize the blues, greens and purples that surround tired eyes. Pay attention to the color of your under-eye circles as this will help you choose the shade of your color corrector. Trick? It's about finding a pigment that is the opposite color of dark circles on the color wheel.

If your under-eye circles look bluish or purple, consider using a yellow pigment like Color Corrector Stick: The Brightener. Meanwhile, with a swipe of the violet corrector, green under-eye circles appear transformed. We love Color Corrector Stick: The Revitaliser.

Match your sunglasses to your look

Some makeup artists recommend you choose a concealer that's a shade or two lighter than your skin tone, while others recommend finding a concealer that matches your skin tone exactly. Which shade you choose really depends on the look and finish you're trying to achieve—although it's always a good idea to find one that matches your undertone.

For a contouring effect on under-eye circles, take the “one tone lighter” approach, using a shade that's slightly lighter than your skin tone without being too pale and ashy. Meanwhile, getting the perfect match will give you the most natural look possible and ensure it blends perfectly and seamlessly with the rest of your foundation.

Aim for the inner corner of your eye

When covering up dark circles, many people focus on the area just below the lower eyelid. However, the inner corner of the eye is usually the darkest part. Apply concealer directly to the area using a sponge applicator like the one built into our Radiant Lift Concealer or the Facefinity All Day Flawless Concealer Wand.

Then press highlighter or tinted eyeshadow over it with your fingertips. The Shine Cream in Miracle Glow Duo is your dream because it brightens without shimmering.
mix with the ring finger

The skin around your eyes tends to be thinner and more delicate, and the last thing you want is tugging or tugging at your eyelids, which can result in fine lines and dark circles. That's why it's important to gently apply concealer under the eyes and dab the edges of the concealer with the ring finger - the weakest and therefore gentlest.

Simply apply the concealer under the eye area, not forgetting the inner corner of the eye and the upper lid, and tap, tap, tap with your fingertips until perfectly blended. easy.
