Re: dark eyelids--need help
here are some tips for Eyes ( from RV Sis's post ) :D
EYES
1) Make sure that you're taking a multivitamin
2) Get enough sleep/rest for your eyes
3) Try dipping cotton in cold rose water...and place on eyes
4) Take wet tea bags and put them in the fridge until they are cold...put on eyes.
5) You can also try potato slices instead of cucumber.

Hi,
Most desi women have yellow undertones in their skin. So, you should get a yellow-based foundation as that provides better coverage. Before applying eyeshadow/liner/mascara.....apply and blend foundation on your eyelids. Apply foundation and concealer under the eyes. This will help your eyeshadow to last longer and it will also make the color of the eyeshadow stand out more.
Have you tried cucumbers? They have a bleaching affect on the skin. You can try placing cucumber slices on your eyelid.
Definitely drink plenty of water and get good sleep. Lack of vitamins can make our complexion dull so take a multivitamin. And consider seeing a dermatologist who can help determine the cause and provide solutions.

just use a primer underneath ur eyeshadow, and it will look great.

^ A primer can also help the eyeshadow pigments stick to the skin better.

When i was pregnant with my first, my eyelids went considerably darker… everyone thought i had smoky eye makeup on!!! ![]()
I watched this programme on tv the other day, where the woman creates a mixtrure of chickpea flour, tomato paste, orange juice, some lemon juice, pinch of tumeric… the presenter said it reduces dark circles… ![]()
For the best concealor, go with Bobbi Brown, as the tones are really tailored for desi skin.
