HEALTH AND BEAUTY TIP -- COVER UP DARK CIRCLES



Make your concealer more effective by checking the color of the dark circles under your eyes first. If they're gray, apply a soft pink eyeshadow to the dark area before you put on your concealer. If they're more bluish, use light peach eyeshadow. Also, don't use concealer that's too light (two shades or more lighter than your natural skin tone), and don't lay it on too thick ... that can make the rest of your face look too dark.
