"I have
dark undereye circle and i have a light complexion, so it really stands out,
and I don't wear mascara, so how do I get rid of it? Can I get rid of it
so that it doesn't come
back?"
Advice from: Monica
Diaz, Makeup Artist and Owner of Cara Int'l

"Undereye circles can either
be hereditary or caused by other factors such as lack of rest, dehydration
or stress. If you know it is not hereditary and it can be one of these factors
my first advise get some rest, drink more water and try cucumber slices on
your eyes while you take a nap. You should do all of the previous even if
undereye circles run in your family. Makeup used to cover undereye circles
is called cover-up and comes in either a stick or a pot formulation. Cover-up
should have a heavy consistency and they come in shades of Light, Medium
or Dark depending on your skintone. I recommend you pick a shade that matches
your skintone and use it before any powder or foundation. Avoid using eyeliner
or mascara on your lower eye. You can use mascara and eyeliner on upper lashline,
try a water resistant formulation." |
