Get enough sleep – at least eight hours per night – to avoid dark circles under your eyes

Not getting enough sleep can be detrimental to your well-being and lead to dark circles forming around your eyes. A lack of quality sleep can have a negative effect on both mental and physical health. Sleep deprivation is linked with a wide range of short and long-term problems, such as mood swings, reduced concentration, stress, and chronic fatigue. In contrast, getting sufficient restful sleep will leave you feeling energized, and productive and help ward off any potential eye bags or other facial blemishes. So, it is recommended that you aim for at least eight hours per night to ensure that your body can recharge and feel refreshed the next day.

Use a hydrating face mask once or twice a week to give your skin a boost

Taking time to treat your skin is essential, and face masks are a great way to do just that. Because our skin can quickly become dry and dull-looking, using a hydrating face mask once or twice per week will help keep it looking fresh, hydrated, and vibrant. In addition to feeling refreshed, you will notice an increased glow in your complexion – something that we all need every so often! Whether you opt for a ready-made product from the store or prefer creating your own at home with ingredients like honey and avocado, adding this weekly step into your skincare routine will make all the difference for your complexion.

Invest in a good quality concealer and foundation to even out your complexion

Achieving an even complexion with a natural-looking finish can be done in two easy steps – investing in a good quality concealer and foundation. Concealers are great at camouflaging any problem areas, such as dark under-eye circles, age spots, or pimples, while foundations can help blend them into the rest of your complexion. Whether you prefer a liquid or powder formulation, there is something out there to meet your needs and get you one step closer to flawless-looking skin. With all these benefits, it’s certainly worth considering investing in a quality concealer and foundation to even out your complexion!

The key to tackling dark circles under your eyes is taking the time for self-care. Taking note of the above tips will prevent or even reduce the appearance of dark circles. Keep in mind good quality products that suit your skin type and be sure to get at least eight hours of sleep each night. Lastly, don’t forget to have patience – no matter what beauty products you use, it may take some time for your skin to heal depending on the cases of dark circles under your eyes. More importantly, taking care of yourself and getting enough rest are integral for a successful journey toward a brighter and healthier complexion.

Wouldn’t it be great if you could airbrush your face in real life? Blur wrinkles, lighten dark circles and put a soft-focus filter over everything?

Make-up has always been able to give us a helping hand, but a new generation of smart cosmetics contain ingredients that reflect and diffuse light, making it so easy to conceal and correct.

1. Start with primer

If you’re going to buy only one new product, make it a primer. These multi-purpose wonders moisturize skin, as well as creating a flawless canvas that anchors foundation.

Try Laura Mercier’s Radiance Foundation Primer for a pearly, soft effect or L’Oreal’s Pure Light Primer, part of the Lumi Magique light-reflecting range, designed to make skin glow.

2. Flawless foundation

The newest foundations put light-reflecting technology centre stage, with impressive results. Try Estee Lauder’s Invisible Fluid Make-up, which uses pigments and molecules to bounce light.

To achieve a flawless finish for any foundation, apply with Urban Decay’s Optical Blurring Brush .

The rounded tip and close-packed bristles buff and polish the product into the skin, rather than just layering it on.

3. Don’t forget concealer

YSL’s Touche Eclat and its light-reflecting particles have been disguising bags for years, but it’s worth looking at less pricey options using similar technology.

Nurture’s Illuminating Touch Treatment Concealer contains UV filters to protect the area, and Boots No 7 Instant Radiance is, say its many fans, as good as the YSL version. Brush on, then use your finger to gently pat it into place.

If you use it on blemishes, be sure to add a dab of face powder on top or the highlighting concealer will draw attention to them.

4. Metallic eyeliner

Light-reflecting pigments in eyeliner sound unnecessary, but make-up innovator Terry de Gunzburg, creator of Touche Eclat, has come up with a lower-lash liner that will make your eyes look huge.

Opaline Flash is a pale metallic pink kohl that glides on easily and gently bounces light to open up the eye.

5. Shimmering eye shadow

Eye shadows that play with light are frequently glittery or frosted, so, for anyone older than 25, can feel too young or old-fashioned.

However, Bobbi Brown’s Long-Wear Cream Shadows deliver shimmer without glitter.

Try Slate or Galaxy, and then use the highlighter end of Soap & Glory’s Arch de Triumph under the brow and in the inner corner of the eyes for a subtle effect that lifts the eye.

6. Perfect your pout

Glosses are the conventional go-to for boosting lips as they reflect more light than lipsticks. But they can look a bit teenage.

New generation lippies, such as Dior Addict Extreme, offer serious shine and strong, lasting color, so you get the same effect without a gloopy gloss.

7. Finishing touches

Powder is used to mattify, but a dewy finish is more youthful – there’s no danger of that powdery-old-lady look.

The latest products offer the best of both worlds with silica-based formulations that moisturize skin.

Try Youngblood Hydrating Mineral Perfecting Powder. For a night out, try a finish with more impact, such as LKC Miracle Glo Perfecting Glotion.
