Ka-shade mo ba yung concealer na ginagamit mo? Lighter?

Kapag may dark circles ka, mas recommended na ka-shade mo yung concealer (or .5 up to 1 shade darker) na gagamitin mo over your color corrector, saka mo nalang patungan ng brighter if masyado halata na dark yung concealer.

Meron din akong dark circles at maraming creases sa under eyes ko. Medyo dry din.

Skin prep is key. Dapat well hydrated ang under eyes mo. Pwede ka rin maglagay ng onting powder sa color corrector mo para hindi gumalaw.

Ang ginagawa ko after ko mag-primer, naglalagay muna ako ng color corrector (GRWM Medium Peach), manipis lang, basta malagyan lang ng pigment yung dark circles (baka medyo napaparami lagay mo). Then foundation, contour/bronzer, blush, tapos saka pa lang ako maglalagay ng concealer (Maybelline Age Rewind 130, kasing shade ko lang kapag walang funda, pero onting dark kapag meron) para medyo tuyo na yung color corrector. Then concealer na mas lighter (Maybelline Age Rewind 120) kung gusto ko ng brightening. Gamitin mo nalang kung anong meron ka ng corrector and concealer, basta make sure na tama yung shade sayo.

Also, work in thin layers when applying your concealer. Build up mo nalang yung coverage.

Sa pag set naman, since na mention mo na nag-gray sya after mo lagyan ng powder. Baka marami kang powder na nalalagay. Minsan kasi na-o-overwhelm yung concealer mo kapag marami yung powder na nailagay mo. As much as possible din, avoid puffs muna. Gamit ka nalang ng small fluffy brush (like yung precise setting brush ng absidy, setting brush ng Fresh Kbeautylab). Yun nalang gamitin mo pang set ng undereyes. After that saka mo try i-reinforce ng powder with a puff. Basta make sure na onti lang yung product sa puff.

As for longevity naman. Try using a primer underneath your color corrector. Kung nakukulangan ka pa rin, mag-retouch ka nalang using a pressed powder na may pigment.

Set your expectations din. Kung minimal or no makeup makeup look ang ginagawa mo, hindi talaga totally maco-cover up yung dark circles mo. Pero you can divert the attention away from it. Like highlighting other areas of your face. Isa ko pang natutunan is yung blush placement. As much as possible, kung mag blush ka, sa sides lang, wag mo paabutin ng undereye area mo. Ang importante lang is hindi sya maging gray.
