Beauty Blogger In Her 50s Shares Viral Concealer Trick To Hide Wrinkled, Dark Under Eyes: ‘It’s Like Night and Day!”

Swap Concealer for Color Corrector

Concealer isn’t the same product as color corrector, and the two should be used in different ways to combat dark circles under the eyes. Investing in a color corrector palette is a great idea — they generally come with a few different shades including peach, purple, and green tones. Kellie Ann demonstrates how she uses a dual-sided brush with pointier bristles on one side. She dips the pointy end into a peach-toned color corrector and dabs the areas of discoloration under her eyes to cover it. You can see pretty quickly that the color counters her darkness.

Blur Your Makeup

After you’ve applied the color corrector, use the fluffier side of your makeup brush to blur your makeup so that it blends in with your skin. Kellie Ann explains that there’s nothing wrong with using concealer under the eyes, but that concealer is generally lighter and doesn’t always sit well on mature skin.

After Kellie Ann finishes applying color corrector under her eyes to conceal circles, she then applies her other makeup, she says — which, for you, may mean a little concealer to brighten the area, foundation for an even skin tone, and translucent powder to set your makeup. “It’s like night and day,” she exclaims, showing the (major) difference between one made-up under eye and one that isn’t made up.

If you’re looking for a different technique to brighten your eyes and help make them stand out, try swapping concealer for color corrector and addressing the tones of discoloration.
