How can I hide my dark circles? Aarrrhh!

Are you worried about concealing your dark circles without looking to thick or cakey? Hiding them can be a pain especially if we had a late night or for some its hereditary.
I maybe able to help. So here are some of my favourites.

Clinique: All about the eyes Concealer £15.50
Thanks to the inclusion of pentapeptides, antioxidants it has a creamy texture and concentrated pigmentation. A little goes along way and provides good coverage with minimal slip. Has a range of colours and great for for darker skin tones too. I highly recommend this product for disguising dark circles without looking thick or too cakey.



Mac: Lift concealer £21
Begins liquidy, but dries quickly to a long lasting, matte finish. It provides a good coverage to build up to a light to medium coverage. 5 shades are available, with the best ones being medium beige 2, Neutral beige 3 and matte beige 4. This product is best for oily skin or for use over oily areas as its a water, talc and silicone based formula. 

Benefit: Lyins Eyes £18
Nice click pen concealer with a built in synthetic brush. Three skin like shades applies with ease and provides a medium coverage while setting to a smooth matte finish. Great job for concealing minor flaws without looking you are hiding something.

Girls...once you have chosen your favourite concealer, or any make up product especially foundations don't be fooled by all the glamorous lighting in stores. Do double check in natural daylight to avoid purchasing the wrong shade or product.
