ALSO Mac stores sell a product called VIRGIN ISLE CREAM COLOR BASE. this may work better for some of you and seem less weird than using lipstick!
KEY POINTERS:
always use eyecream! it will help depuff your undereyes, help keep soften the dark circles, and help keep the wrinkles away.
if youre using an orange based product under your eyes, ONLY put it on top of the blue/purple in the dark circles, and you ONLY NEED A SMALL AMOUNT! if you put it over any other part of your skin, it wont help and will be obvious. the orange is meant to cancel out the blue, not anything else!
ALWAYS use a warm pink toned concealer under your eyes! your face and body may have more yellow or cool tones, but always use a warm based concealer under your eyes (this would be an NW shade for mac users).
Also, you want to go a shade lighter than your normal concealer/foundation shade for under eyes. this will help highlight the area, rather than darkening it, which will make the dark circles look worse.
Not the colors I would ever use for a natural look, but I wanted to get the point across that a lot of impressive makeup is really the same basics, just different combinations. Also, I wanted to make sure the contrast would be visible with new webcam
For a natural look I’d replace
