Covering Under Eye Circles and Blemishes



โ™ช Hi, this is Shiloe with StyleUnited, and today, I'm working with Nora and I'm gonna be showing you how to cover dark under-eye circles and blemishes. So the first thing that you need to consider is taking care of your skin. You want to make sure that your hands are clean, you're not touching your face often, and also that you have a solid skincare regimen. If your skin is acne-prone, you do want to make sure that you're addressing that through your regimen. What I want to start out with is concealing blemishes and I'm actually going to be using CoverGirl and Olay's Simply Ageless Eye Concealer in 215. And taking a small concealer brush, I'm just gonna take, put a little bit of product on there. Turn your head. To cover a blemish, you want to start by just gently patting the product on and then blending in a circular motion, slightly outward, so that way, not only are you getting the product on there, but you're not moving it around the face too much. You're just gonna do this in just small areas where you're gonna be needing the coverage. As you can see, the blemish is now covered. In order to set it with the eye concealer, you do want to make sure that you're using a powder. What I'm actually gonna be using is CoverGirl's Clean and Normal pressed powder with a fluffy face brush. And you're just gonna really gently just set it. This will ensure that the product stays on the blemish as well as just give it a finished look. So you're gently just gonna pat it in there. So now I'm gonna be moving on to concealing dark under-eye circles. And using a similar product, it's still by Olay and Simply Ageless, it's actually a corrector. What's great about this product is it still has the Olay Regenerist serum inside of it so not only does it have anti-aging benefits, which is great for the eye area, but also, it has that yellow pigmentation, so it'll help offset any dark pigmentation that you'll have under your eyes. And you're gonna apply it wherever you see a shadow. So typically it's in the middle of the center of your face, as well as sometimes it can even be on the outer corners. It's very similar to working with a blemish. You just want to make sure that you're patting it on and then blending it out. For darker complexions, you want to do this before you put on your foundation, so that way it doesn't show like a raccoon effect. As you can see, it's downplayed at least a little bit. It's opened her eyes up a little bit. As far as setting it with a powder, I wouldn't recommend it because you're gonna be putting on eyeshadow, more than likely. If you have any questions, please feel free to consult with a StyleUnited counselor.
