How to Conceal & Highlight Under the Eyes!
 
 
Hey dolls!! Hope you've been keeping well. Today I aim to shed light on the dreaded make-up area CONCEALER. Yes, the agent that is meant to banish our weary panda eyes and signs of all night partying! Well, I think I've cracked it ladies? .......(not jinxing myself too soon I hope!)
After watching a few videos by the beautiful Miss Carli Bybel (CarliBel55) on YouTube, I thought I'd give her routine a bash-------and I love it!
 
Using the MAC Prep & Prime in Light Boost with the Blank Canvas F23 Pointed Kabuki first, I apply light to the under-eye area. This instantly draws light to the under-eye area without any concealer. When the concealer does go on top of it, the light enhancing agent really does it's job- thumbs up MAC!! The pointed top to the BC Pointed Kabuki brush really is the perfect brush to add light  to all areas of the under-eyes.



 
 
Following the Prep & Prime- I take the Laura Mercier Secret Camouflage Concealer with the Real Techniques Foundation Brush. First I correct with darkest parts of my eyes with the salmon shade on the right (below), then apply the concealing shade (left) over it. Works like a gem ladies!!
