Re: under eye makeup

@Nisha25

one thing she says is that the concealer should be a shade darker than the skintone because light attracts attention and dark hides it so that’s why use a shade darker for under the eye, cuz i there’s a marked difference between my skintone and the under eye area but then some others say it should be shade lighter than one’s skintone and then with all the pink, green, yellow concealers my head’s spinning

lol, what she means is that go a shade darker for under the eyes since that area is darker to begin with and go a shade lighter for blemishes since yellow cancels out redness. For example. I use Bobbi Brown Corrector in Light peach which is darker than my face but it seems almost a lighter under the eye since the peachyness cancels out the darkness. I use a yellower concealer like Laura Mercier Secret Camo in SC-3 or MAC’s Studio Finish Concealer in NC20 to cancel out blemishes etc.
