Heather in OK Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Is there anything that works?? I've tried concealers but they just don't work it seems. Maybe I'm buying the wrong thing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancer67 Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 The concealers should have a yellow tinge to it. Then apply matte powder around the eye. The night before, use some eye cream like Loreal, it reduces the puffiness and circles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather in OK Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 I've tried a concealer like that before. It just makes me look jaundiced. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nestof3 Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 Perhaps it's because of my pale skin, but the non-yellow works better for me. I do use L'Oreal eye cream every night, and I think this helps some, but nothing really covers them for good. I've had them all my life, and so do many people in my family.

Heather in OK Posted March 4, 2010 Author Share Posted March 4, 2010 Which eye cream is it? I looked on their site and see Revitalift and the Skin Genesis Eye Serum. A Sephora opened here not long ago. If I went in there would someone be able to help? I've never been in there and have never had someone help me with applying makeup so I really have no idea what I'm doing. :blushing: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Mungo Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 (edited) Which eye cream is it? I looked on their site and see Revitalift and the Skin Genesis Eye Serum. A Sephora opened here not long ago.

I've never been in there and have never had someone help me with applying makeup so I really have no idea what I'm doing. :blushing: I use this set from Benefit. The Oooh la lift in that kit is the best thing I've found for covering under-eye circles. These are small but I've had this kit for a year and a half, use it every day and I still have plenty left. I've heard good things about Philosophy's Dark Shadows (it's not a concealer, it's supposed to diminish dark shadows) but I haven't personally used it. But, yes, most of the time the salespeople in Sephora are pretty helpful as far as determining what would be best for your needs. eta: If you need help with application ideas you might try Sephora's youtube channel.

rose_king Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I'm a Mary Kay girl myself. ;) I love the highlighting pen, and firming eye cream for night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I went into a Sephora store in desperation one time because I had a big event to go to but had a MAJOR drug reaction rash all over my face. Putting make up on it wasn't going to hurt it, but I looked like I'd lived through something awful. By the time they were done, you couldn't even tell the rash was there. a Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luckymama Posted March 4, 2010 Share Posted March 4, 2010 I bought one of the starter kits from Bare Minerals (at Ulta but they are available at Sephora too) last year and love it! All the women (and my girls too) in my family have dark circles under our eyes----the under-eye veins are really close to the surface. The Bare Minerals foundation covers the circles, covers any pimples and evens out my skin tone. I don't have to use ANY concealer, which I had to do with other brands. I do use the concealer brush to "hit" the problem areas before using the larger face brush. I especially like that I don't have to use a separate sunscreen when I wear the Bare Minerals products. The employees at Sephora will be able to help you figure out what brands/products will work best for your situation. They sure helped me at Ulta :) I've taken my dd15 there too. The closer-than-Ulta Sephora just opened so I haven't been there yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RanchGirl Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I like Sheer Cover (both the concealer and the mineral make-up to go over it). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
