| Step 1.
Moisturize. "Prepare the undereye area by applying eye
cream and letting it absorb into the skin for two or three minutes,"
advises Robert. "Blot away any excess with a sponge or tissue. Using
eye cream first will help your concealer adhere and if the skin
under your eyes tends to be dry, your concealer won't end up with a
caked-on appearance." Step 2.
Conceal. "Use a concealer shade the same as your
foundation, or a shade or two lighter if you have truly dark
undereye circles. Use a fine-tip brush or sponge to trace your
concealer along the lowest part of the circle and work your way
outward from the inner corner of the eye. You'll want to leave about
1/8 of an inch between the concealed area and the lashline or it can
make your eyes look smaller."
Step 3. Blend. "Begin by
dabbing carefully with your fingertip until the concealer seems to
disappear. Don't forget to use a little at the inside corners of
your eyes where the skin tends to be darker. If you have serious
undereye circles, apply a lighter concealer first then put on your
foundation. Be gentle when you blend or you'll risk removing a major
part of it."
