Most of the people on this planet have problems with darks circles under their eyes. They can be very stubborn, even if you live healthy life and sleep well at night. Using only liquid foundation and concealer usually doesn’t get the job done or creates another problem – white circles. Luckily there is a simple and weird make up trick, that the vlogger Deepica Mutyala swears by and it involves product that you already have in your cosmetic bag. Use orangey-red lipstick underneath your eye and then apply your foundation as you always do. It’s as simple as that!
You probably think this sounds crazy, but the science has explanation for it. The darks circles under the eyes are blueish-green colored. On the color wheel, red and orange nuances are directly across form blue and green colors, so they neutralize and the dark circles disappear.
Deepica suggests using creamy orange-red lipstick. Here’s what to do: Dab an eyeshadow brush into the lipstick and apply it underneath your eye and over the lid. Start with a light layer of lipstick and then use a little bit more. You can also apply lipstick over your scars, pimples or any other dark pigments on your face. Then apply foundation all over your face and see how this trick works like magic.
Bonus tips:
- If you have lighter skin, try pink or purple lipstick which brightens yellowish undertones.
- If you have extra dark circles use yellow lipstick.
- Peach lipstick covers up hyperpigmentation.
