Mastering Undereye Brightening

The delicate skin under your eyes can often show signs of fatigue, but with the right techniques, you can achieve a bright, refreshed look. Today, we’re sharing our favorite tips for undereye brightening to help you look awake and radiant.

The Trick: Mastering Undereye Brightening

Step 1: Hydrate and Prep
Before applying any makeup, ensure the skin under your eyes is well-moisturized. Use a lightweight eye cream to smooth the area and reduce puffiness. This helps your concealer blend seamlessly and prevents it from creasing.

Step 2: Correct Before Concealing
If you have dark circles, start with a color corrector to neutralize any discoloration. For blue or purple undertones, use a peach or salmon-toned corrector. For brown undertones, opt for a more orange-based corrector.

Hint: Use a small, precise brush to apply the corrector only where needed for targeted coverage. The 935 Soft Slanted Square Concealer Brush is perfect for this step.

Step 3: Apply Concealer Strategically
To avoid a heavy, cakey look, focus your concealer application on the inner corners of the eyes and along the tear troughs where shadows are most prominent. Blend outwards using gentle tapping motions for a natural finish.

The Key Step: Blend with a soft brush to seamlessly merge the concealer into your skin, ensuring there are no harsh lines.

Hint: The 788 BDHD Phase III Blending/Concealing Brush is great for blending concealer in tight spaces while maintaining coverage.

Step 4: Set for Long-Lasting Brightness
To prevent your concealer from creasing, lightly dust a translucent setting powder under the eyes. Be sure to use a light hand to keep the area looking fresh and bright rather than dry or cakey.

Pro Tip: Add a Touch of Highlight
For an extra brightening effect, add a small amount of highlighter to the inner corners of your eyes and along the brow bone. This draws attention to your eyes, making them appear larger and more awake.

Why It Works: Brightening the undereye area can instantly lift your entire look, giving you a refreshed, youthful appearance. By using the right techniques and tools, you can achieve a natural, radiant finish.
