How to reliably mask dark circles under the eyes: an ingenious makeup life hack

Dark circles under the eyes are a common problem that can ruin even the most flawless makeup. They can make you look tired, sick, or even older than you really are.

There are many concealers, creams, and other makeup products that promise to remove dark circles, but even the most expensive cosmetics don't always help. That's why Vogue has shared one effective life hack that will help you reliably mask all your imperfections.

Many women face the fact that when they try to mask dark circles with a thick concealer, an ugly shade of fatigue still breaks through. As a result, the skin under the eyes looks too gray or orange.

In addition, the excess product often leads to the appearance of additional folds and emphasizes existing wrinkles.

Cause of dark circles under the eyes

Dark circles under the eyes appear when the skin around the eyes becomes too thin or pale, causing the blood vessels underneath to become visible. There are many reasons for their appearance. The most common are fatigue, lack of sleep, aging, stress, regular eye rubbing, or genetics.

How to hide dark circles under the eyes

First, you need to moisturize your skin well. To do this, you can use a special cream or gel for the eyes. Apply the product evenly and wait until it is absorbed.

Then apply makeup base as usual, using SPF and primer.

The main secret of this life hack, as strange as it may sound, is red lipstick.

Before using concealer, apply it to the darkest areas under your eyes and blend with your fingers. Red neutralizes some colors and will be much easier to cover than blue or purple.

Now take the concealer and apply it to the inner, and outer corners of the eyes and the area under the eyes to cover the lipstick. To fix the effect, you can powder it all at the end.
