We’ve all experienced late nights or have had genetics pass down to us the gift of blueish-purple tones that never seem to go away.

How to Cover Dark Circles Correctly
- When applying primer, don’t forget the eye area
- Using a flat concealer brush, dab the product directly underneath the eye, getting close to the lash line
- Continue outwards, towards the inner and outer corners of the eye
- Smooth any creases with your finger or beauty blender
- Apply your foundation, making sure blend so there isn’t a noticeable line where the under eye concealer ends and foundation begins
- Set with powder
- Add highlighter to the brow bone, cheek bone and inner corners of the eye for extra brightness!
