Make-up Tips for Concealing Dark Circles Part II - How to Apply Concealer

How to Apply Concealer
  1. Apply foundation to your face without paying particular attention to the skin under the eyes. It is easier for you to see the dark circles under eyes that you need to conceal after application of your foundation.

  2. Apply the concealer from the inner corner of eyes to outer side in a thin and even coat till the concealer blends completely with your skin. This can be accomplished either by using a make-up brush (some brands have their own brushes specifically designed for the purpose of their own concealers) or by patting it on with your finger.

  3. Spread the concealer evenly along the entire area around dark circles under eyes to achieve effective blending with the normal skin in order to prevent uneven skin tone and shading.

  4. Pay attention to your skin underneath the eyes, especially the place where your eyes meet the bridge of your nose as this area tends to have the darkest circles.

  5. Avoid applying mascara on lower lashes as flakes of mascara frequently fall from the lower lashes worsens the appearance of dark circles.

  6. Apply powder to the concealed areas with a translucent powder. This gives a smooth well polished appearance as a final step.
Personally, I am using Bobbi Brown Creamy Concealer Kit (Anti-Cernes Creme) as my eye concealer. You may visit my post at http://darkcirclestreatment.blogspot.com/2010/05/dark-circles-treatment-dark-circles.html for more details on this product.
