Hiding Dark Circles December 4, 2007

Filed under: Beauty Tips — btwice @ 10:48 am

Dark circles under your eye are tough to conceal.  Here is a useful guide when trying to hide the dull troublesome area.

1. Use a full coverage concealer that has a pink undertone.  A small amount of pink pigment brightens dull dark areas. 

2. The concealer should be close to your skin tone.

3. Pat the concealer while applying, blend and layer until the dark area disappears.  If the concealer is dry mix a wee bit of eye cream in with it.

If your under eye area is much darker than the rest of your skin tone, you need to use a concealer that is closer to the under eye color.  Otherwise if you use a concealer that is too light, the end result will appear ashy.

For ladies who have an  indian decent or are genetically predisposed to severly dark under eyes, you should use a  small speck of deep red lipstick.  Then cover the area with a concealer that is between your skin tone and under eye color.

The oh soo short mini dress is very cheeky, bold and elegant.  It doesn’t have to be sleezy just because it’s super short, when wearing this sassy style don’t bare all!  If you are showing off your lengthy limbs cover up the torso with a higher cut of fabric.  Make sure the top of the dress isn’t exceedingly low cut.
