When it is exceeded with dinners and white nights, it causes a series of aperitifs and parties which, in addition to putting a strain on the line, they do not fail to show their effects also on the appearance of the skin. The many hours sitting at the table, the binges and the few hours of sleep in the long run can also be seen on the face that appears marked by deep and dark circles under the eyes.
But it is possible to resort to repairs. Arm yourself with the right products, including the corrector. «The corrector is not only used to correct dark circles, but also imperfections, discolorations, and to give light. Used alone, however, it guarantees only 50% of the result. If you want to obtain a camouflage effect, you must first apply a deflating and soothing treatment. And then other make-up tricks such as foundation, mascara, blush and even lipstick “, he lets us know Luca Mannucci, make-up artist Deborah Milano who revealed us the tricks to look bright on every occasion.
Before the concealer
«For a complete camouflage effect you must start with treatments such as soothing and deflating eye serums and balms. In addition to preparing the area to be covered, reducing swelling, they allow the make-up product to slide better ».
Advice for perfect application
«Always apply the foundation first and then the concealer, unless it is a compact foundation where I will then reverse the order. Never use corrector sponges. I apply a little product on the back of my hand, heat it with my fingertip and then I go to dab and tap to make it adhere better. After the concealer there are women who like to set it with powder. In this case it is always good to use the powder brush ».
A corrector for every type of dark circle
“White / black runner: it is suitable for women with very white, ivory skin. Pink concealer: it is indicated for those moments when the skin is tired because pink corrects fatigue and removes the yellowish pigment. So it is perfect for the period immediately after parties and binges when the face appears more tired and dull. Even that Violet it can be a solution because it is complementary to yellow. In both cases I recommend applying them on the T-zone and on the cheekbone up to the temple. In this way, the eye contour will also benefit. Biege concealer: it is a passe-partout to camouflage both dark circles, but also to correct skin discoloration. Green concealer: it is used more rarely around the eyes. It is mainly used to cover redness such as couperose. Amber-based orange concealer: for very deep dark circles because it is complementary to blue. This is good for all of them dark, brown spots, for example due to the sun, or pregnancy. If I have dark or tanned skin I will use the orange concealer alone; if I have light skin with the orange concealer I go to correct the dark parts, while with the foundation or concealer of the same tone of the complexion I will go to even out. The palette Secrets of Camouflage by Deborah Milano contains practically all of them. “
Some tricks
“In case of accentuated dark circles: apply a vanilla concealer and then you can decide to camouflage with a little peach / apricot / pink blush on the cheeks. Better if in cream. The eye contour will also benefit. In case of extreme and deep dark circles: never forget to apply the strong and vibrant color lipstick. The bare lips highlight the eye patch even more. Red in all its shades moves vertically and tends to lighten the eye contour. It is like a set of diamonds: it gives light to the face and camouflages the eyeglasses. In case of tired face: apply the powder on areas such as chin, forehead, T-zone and leave eye contour with a silk effect. Mascara: for those with deep bluish dark circles never apply it on the lower lashes because it creates shade and accentuates the hinge even more.
Hair and jewelry
Collected hair is to be preferred in case of deep dark circles, as well as uncovering the décolleté. Jewelry is also important. My advice is to try to always wear lively and important necklaces and earrings ».
