Finally someone who doesn’t color correct with red lipstick or extremely orange concealers! We need more makeup artists like you ♥️
I saw the Charlotte Tillbury under-eye corrector and it scared me a little because it looked very orange.
Indeed alex is a real one .
I mean, for deeper complexions those are the colors you use.
Ultimately depends on your skin value. But yes I do see people with lighter skin values looking orange because they choose one which are too dark.
Julie the Charlotte Tilbury color correctors are some of the I used . The one for fair to light skin is a mix of pink with a hint of peach , I have some of them in my kit and they work very well because they act like a stain if you don’t apply too much so they don’t add to product build up and undereye creasing or look cakey
lmao i just thought my concealer had a grey undertone but it all makes sense now
I have the same issue with dark circles showing through and this helps me.
😘❤️
@@AlexandraAnele same. I'm a hag. I've had tear trough twice but that's $$$$$. genetics. I've never NOT had them.
@@mizlisa19 I think you meant tear trough fillers? Did they work for you?
@@cozettem8226)pppp)
Wow! I always wondered why I had such a gray cast after using concealer! What a fantastic teacher you are! My darkness is not under my eyes, it’s on the inner most corners of my eyes on either side of the bridge of my nose, so I have been using a brightening powder over the concealer to help hide the gray cast, but NOW....I need to get a color corrector! Thank you so much!
The peach corrector by the LA Girl Color Correctors is amazingggg just started using it and I love it
Same!
I just bought that one and the cool pink one! I'm glad to hear someone liked it because I'm new to color correcting 😅
@@taylorpaige1117 how to use it i have dark Area around my mouth
@@jisoolh2109 same as u would w eyebags
Okay this girl deserves millions of subscribers I love her so much.
Also, hi I work at Ulta and I have genetic dark circles and kinds deep-set eyes. My FAVORITE color corrector is the Becca Under Eye Brightening, I use the light to medium (pink) color and it can be worn by itself on no makeup days and 👏🏻 it’s 👏🏻 amazing 👏🏻
It’s pricey, but you use so little of it at a time (dip your ring finger in and pat it on) that it’s so worth it. Mine usually lasts 5-6 months with using it probably 6x a week.
this was my holy grail but I had an allergic reaction :(
BewitchedStar urban has a - albeit - liquid pink color corrector that’s damn near the same exact color!
Wow this is so helpful thanks for this!
She’s the best. Hands down, the best!!!
Girl thank you!
Can you do a video on setting powders? I’ve noticed some of the ones I tried make me look grey under my eyes. Also I have the dragon beauty color corrector and I don’t like it. It’s way too dark. I would still love to see you try it though because you could probably make it work lol. Also please try the JS concealer and color corrector please!
Samantha Percs yes!!! Me too
idk if you found one yet, but i try to use a yellow powder to counter any extra gray or blue and it helps brighten your undereyes- i currently use makeup revolution “bake and blot” banana light
@@lizziele5212 thank you! I’ll give it a try!
Someone with actually dark circles!! I struggle with the same issue and just been feeling like I haven't been doing anything right to help cover them up. I use color correction daily and now I'm beyond excited to try these little methods you've done here.
Thank you so much !!
I have genetic dark circles and I really love the smashbox colour corrector stick. Don't know why it's not more popular. I have medium skin and it works really well!
they say that even the doctor says that a product dissolves after a said time- it might not be true. They did an MRI machine scan to see fillers, dermal fillers, still left in the face after 7 years (!!!) for some preparations that were supposed to only last one year. They concluded that the fillers don't disappear fully, they migrate to other places of your face. Lets say you got lip injections, you feel like it has worn off. It migrated from your lips to the cheeks. Where there is less movement so it settles there. Victorian Cosmetic Institute - is a youtube channel that has a video called "How long do dermal fillers really last? MRI scans provide evidence."
ItsNatashaFFS holy crap that’s a scary thought. Eye trough fillers are like hylauranic acid though so that wouldn’t be too harmful right?
@@jerry-maybayer6588 I would consult a specialist
Wow!!
Why not link the video copy and paste the link please?
Video link would be helpful so we can also watch.
I have the exact same problem and I'm a pale olive tone lol and I wanna add that you're so beautiful even without makeup❤❤
😭 thank you love ❤️
@@AlexandraAnele you're welcome beautiful 😊
Pale olive is the hardest to find!!!!
The new smash box foundation has a good olive shade as well as the new abh luminous, that one only really comes in darker shades but I mix it with a lighter one
Same lol
For color correction, it is important to think about neutralization of color. Complementary colors are how we achieve this. The color wheel is really helpful for this. Or, think sports team uniforms...i.e. Purple and yellow, orange and blue, green and red, etc. Then, we can add light and dark to create tints (white based/pastel), tones (gray/grey), and shades (black based). Thank you for talking about and demonstrating techniques for application. I know that you have an art background, but many of us might not know the underlying color theory behind why peach works, for instance. So, it is really hard to decide what to do for our own undertones, etc. Thanks for all you do!
Important to point out that complimentary colours (also known as opposite colours) are directly opposite each-other on the colour wheel...
@@gillianwills9049 thank you! You are entirely correct. Some TH-cam videos on color theory should be helpful for anyone who is curious.
I have reddish purple dark circles because it's not the actual skin that's discolored but the skin is so thin that the blood vessels are peeking through. I tried opposite colors like yellow or green to correct purple or red and for whatever reason I spend way too much effort and concealer trying to cover up the corrector, not to mention it ends up rubbing off the corrector. And I still find that the area is no more concealed than if I would have just used a couple of thin layers of concealer to begin with. The red/purple still peaks through no matter what I've ever tried. Its frustrating!
Can I just ask, so, I think my very dark circles are more warm toned, so does this mean I should use cool tones to colour correct them before concealing? (Sorry if I am dead wrong!)
I was wondering how I would figure that out. That totally makes sense. Very helpful! Thank you!
I’ve been so frustrated when doing makeup cause I just felt like my under eyes literally make me look dead lmao
Definitely gonna try this 😌
I am a man, and I loved the video. Been struggling with finding a way to conceal those dark circles and always ended up with some sort of darkness still visibile. Your right eye (left on video) effect is what I experience pretty much 100% of the time. Now I know how to fix it. Awesome, will give it a try!
Everyone with olive skin that's a from light to a little on the medium side, I reccomend that you use yellow on your darkest areas and blend it out with peach on your other areas! It works so well and gets rid of my dark circles so quickly! Also I use the NYX color correcting pallet. It's 12 dollars at ulta and it works really well!
thanks!
yellow works to cancel out purple hues, which is for neutral-cool undertoned skin. everybody is different
@@drmosaddegh I know it's different for everyone, but it also works to even out olive skin as we have more yellow-green undertones
@@marshall1003 yellow is the overtone. i just learned the difference a few days ago. i have pale-light-medium olive skin (honestly the shade changes i tan very easily but my natural skin is a yellow-y shade of white), the overtone is yellow but the undertone is blue-ish green. i thought all olive skin is warm but that's not true, olive skin can be cool toned
@@drmosaddegh I see, I have more green undertones and I tan very easily too. I don't usually meet a lot of other people with olive toned skin so I had assumed that olive skin people have neutral-warm tones like mine
Okay, confession time: i have been consistently watching your videos over the past few days.
Its just, it was amazing to hear a make up say what ive been trying to tell people and explain why i like make up. It reminds me of art. The drawing, shading, lines, contouring, highlighting, making 3D, using different colours and textures and blending. For me, whenever i wear make up, i'm just painting my face instead of a piece of paper.
Agreed!!
I wish it felt that way for me! It's a real challenge.
Thaaaaaat's why my dark circles looks grey under my concealer, haha. I'm not a make-up person and get pretty overwhelmed by make-up application in general, so i keep things simple and can get away with it! But addressing my dark circles has been heavy on my mind lately. So thank you for breaking this down, listing products and explaining beautifully! I've watched all your videos about dark circles and they're so so helpful. I've made my list and getting the products you have recommended (even the brushes!) Wish me luck, and thanks again! Xx
For those looking for the Ben Nye wheel, it's a type of theatrical/stage makeup, so Ben Nye/Graftobian/Kryolan will all have similar products. And that stuff is meant to stay and meant to be really full-coverage. LOVE using it as a color corrector!
I bought this Ben Nye wheel but its reaaaally dry. How do you sort that out please ? Thank you !
I mentioned in your eyeshadow blending video that you are an excellent teacher and I would like to reiterate it after watching this video. You are not only one of the most talented MU A’s on TH-cam but you are also one of the greatest instructors. If you ever decide to give up the makeup gig you should consider being a teacher or better yet a Professor.
😭 thank you so much! That’s literally what I was going to do! I was going to get my masters and become an art professor, but then makeup became my art form and here we are 🙃
Finally! Someone who does not "triangle" with concealer and actually explains how to correct and conceal. I have had BAD bags my entire life - sleep or no sleep... Most concealers just accentuate my dark circles, and nothing has worked... ever. They never go away. Please keep them coming - I am learning so much!
They sell the Ben Nye Corrector Wheels on Camera Ready Cosmetics. Just an FYI, is anyone has a hard time getting their hands on them after this video. These videos tend to sell out whatever product is being linked... 😉 Btw, per your request for suggestions; I've used the NYX apricot color corrector pot for years, and I like it. I just purchased NYX's version of the Ben Nye corrector wheel, and have high hopes because of the variety of colors, thus the ability to customize vs just the one color in the single pot. It seems to be the same consistency, but alot more affordable.
How was NYX your experience with NYX color corrector after 3 mos?
Update on how it worked out?
So glad I started following you! I originally found you a long time ago on my quest to find some way to cover my really bad under eye circles. You've really helped me a lot, thank you so much!
So glad it's helped!
Is it weird that I’m thankful that we have the same “flaws?” 😂 You’re gorgeous, so I say, “flaws,” but know I say it with love!
dark circles have always been my biggest complex. Thank you for the video, I will definitely try color correction, i hate putting too much concealer under my eyes
Hi,
Can you show us how to use Kevyn Aucoin SSE. And how to conceal for mature skin 40+
Finally you also have that dip like I do and when I conceal I find that there’s then a shadow there. Can you show how to place a lighter concealer so that we can play with the light and dark to counter the dip. Thank you.
Yes loved the art history about the green at the beginning, I’m going a art history bachelors degree so I was right there lol x
As a fellow dark circle gal, I thank you for this video! I really loved a concealer that Anthropologie came out when they released their own makeup line, which sadly has been discontinued. It had two cream concealer pans - a peach and then a neutral. I've tried the Jane Iredale two pan corrector and I don't recommend it unless you have Very fair skin. I'll have to try some of your recommendations.
One thing that I do on most days - since I go for a more natural look, is to use my dark circles to my advantage. I don't try to completely conceal them and I will leave parts of my eyelid as is because it creates the natural look of eyeshadow.
I have been BINGE WATCHING all of your vids since yesterday. THANK YOU for putting out such high quality content! I've learned so much!!!
what do you think of the becca and charlotte tilbury corectors? please review!
You know you’re brain is 100% analytical when you’re lost within 2 minutes of this video.
I love the Dior peach colour corrector. It’s the perfect shade for fair skin tones and is super hydrating. It is a bit sheer but can be layered on.
I wish I had her decision making capabilities.. "Its kinda too dark...Let's just fucking do it" My life would be much easier lol
I really love the Becca Under eye brightening corrector in Light/medium and the Lancôme teint idole ultra wear in Bisque
Yeah I would love to hear your thoughts on the Jeffree Star Concealer please :)
I don't feel like anyone dares to give an honest review. I bought all his eyeshadow palettes going wow this must be the best. The shimmery shadows were crumbly and noone mentioned how bad they were at all.
@@prettynostalgicau Everyone is SO scared of cancel culture or getting or involved in drama they don't need so some just avoid mentioning his products altogether. My friend bought the Jawbreaker palette and she told me that the mattes just disappeared off her eyelids. On the flip side I do know someone who has Blood Sugar and says that it's great. Regarding TH-camrs, I did find some channels that were honest about their JSC reviews. If you want I can send you some.
@@prettynostalgicau not every product works for everybody
I love his concealer and I’m not afraid to be canceled or speak my true thoughts.. haha.. I have drier skin and I’m older.. I feel they have excellent coverage and they are creamy! Not super thick, matte and cakey! I can’t stand super dry matte makeup.. They blend so well too! I haven’t tried the color corrector shades but definitely want to! I really love his shadows too.. I have a bunch of different palettes from different brands but I think his shadows work great for me any way? The setting powder is really good too.. This is the case for me anyway.. Dry/mature skin..
@@tracie3 Thank you so much for your input! I have dry skin too and I really wanted this concealer. But I didn't want a concealer that bring out any texture or cling to dryness so it's great to know that it works for someone with dry skin. Thanks again :) !!
I am of a similar color scheme as you, also of Slavic ethnicity with the genetic dark circles. I'm 60 years old and the best dark circle corrector I've found for me is by Becca cosmetics. It's called "Under Eye Brightening Corrector" . Basically I cannot live without it, it's that good.
Yes please I would love to see someone who actually has dark circles try and test out Nikita’s color corrector!! Thank you so much for this one. It was super helpful.
Great video explaining the steps. My favorite color corrector is from Charlotte Tilbury, that came out this year. Love how emollient and soft it is, does not move and it’s perfect color for my medium yellow skin
I use the Becca color corrector in the deep shade and I'm fair and olive. (It's really not deep at all) It's the only one that I have tried that sticks around when I apply my concealer. I still get a little purple on the inner corner so I end up going over it with a skin toned eyeshadow 🤷
I love your no nonsense methodical approach to makeup, I'm a very unfussy person and most makeup tutorialists (which is totally a word
... that I just made up) are too extra for me.
Could you bring in a guest that has pink/reddish undertones? Is that a thing? I feel like I am😭
I’m olive skinned and pale. I bought the infallible cashmere concealer after watching your video. It was amazing and affordable thank you.
Omg gurl! Hello hereditary dark circles with olive skin tones. My go to, never fail, will swear by is the jeffree star color corrector and concealer. I will never use anything else!
I use one from Tarte that I like, but still searching for "the one". I have also tried the Pixi one (a little dry) and the Becca (not pigmented enough).
Brilliant explanation. It just makes sense when you explain it. Thank you, thank you l, thank you.
Yay! Hope it helps! ❤️
Oh my gosh yessss! The video I need.
You are so talented and gorgeous, plus the way you explain the process, it makes sense
😭 Thanks babe ❤️❤️❤️
I mixed some of my powder peach blusher into my under eye concealer. Life changing!
Please try Kryolan Concealer Wheel in comparison with Ben Nye, Love this video, xx
Oh my goodness, Alex, you are a godsend. You have been solving all my problems-ESPECIALLY for my dark circles! I'm a brown girl and suffer from Dark Circle Syndrome, and these tips have helped me SO, SO MUCH. The concealer I use is full coverage but it doesn't brighten up the area and I still look /exhausted/ despite patting so much on. Life is a struggle! Thank you so much for your helpful tips; you've taught it in such a simple and straightforward way and I'm mindblown by you! Definitely subscribed!!!
Yayy!! I’m so glad it helped! ❤️
I have a child named Alex too. I love your dry humor. I'm turning 50 this year, but I think you could be one of my sisters. (I have 3) Take care!
I love your painter's perspective in makeup! It makes so much sense thank you so much ❤️
I can't speak english. what's the exact name? peach = MY-1, MO-2 ,CC-1, MY-2 , MO-11 , NT-1(C) I should buy the same color among other products.(sk-1, sk-11....)
LimeLife by Alcone’s camoflauge waterproof complete concealer in #3 is the perfect salmon shade for fair to light skintones and circle color correcting. It’s a wax base, a thicker formula, takes very* little, works best if you warm it up with your finger and I’ve been using it the last 3 yrs. I have hereditary circles so dark I look like I have huge black eyes without using it first... I’d def compare it to Ben Nyes. Each concealer is $24 I believe but they last a VERY VERY long time. I also own the #1 corrector for redness, #0 for highlighting and #2 for my skin tone. But anyway, it works beautifully with other concealers too.
Thanks for your detail. Mine have plagued me all my life. (Thanks, Dad!). In Kindergarten (and after), my teachers would send me home from school thinking I was sick (just dark circles).
It was years before color correctors came on the market. What a difference they make!
I was interested in undereye filler for years, but an aesthetic practitioner advised against it. She said it’s ideal for those over 50 or 60, but in younger people, the filler often shifts and creates noticeable pockets, requiring frequent corrections or removal. Instead, she recommended addressing lifestyle factors that cause dark circles and puffiness and improving makeup techniques with the right products. Additionally, my research showed that specific undereye creams aren’t necessary; face creams and serums usually work just as well. I managed to improve my undereye situation by managing my water intake, sleep schedule, and stress levels, and by trying out Korean skincare. With the makeup techniques I learned, it has really made a difference. Take my experience and advice with a grain of salt; You‘re up to ur choices ❤
ok ive been on a binge of your channel for the past few days and i genuinely love your videos so much. you teach everything so thoroughly and in a way thats SO easy to understand. you make makeup videos for REGULAR ASS PEOPLE.
You give me x men vibes. You just SITTING there in your dark circle beauty makes me think you would make a BOMBTASTIC MYSTIQUE
What do you do if you are pale and have blue circles & bags? I seem to be (IT 11.5 C) concealer color or Shape Tape 20B. I am trying soo many from apricot to pink and I end up looking like I just have circles and bags with concealer on my face. I hydrate, prime..etc but the blue-grey shows through. I don't know what I am doing wrong. Can't find any fair skin gals doing bags with concealer. Also my skin gets lines and has those tiny fat bumps. I don't do a lot of makeup for my look.
Dear Alexandra, I look at you and must say that compared to me you don’t have any dark circles at all 😅 mine are just.. almost black but still brownish.. I’m so tired of covering them every morning.. envious of people who can go out without applying make up on
I totally agree with your point on BH Cosmetics. I bought a 10 colour camouflage palette (now discontinued) and it is still solid. Olive shades included. And the best part after so many years of owning it I found it contained my perfect corrector shade and I was unaware. Silly me. It's been like 6 years I bought it and it is still going strong. It didn't go bad and I keep checking for it.
I loved your previous video where you explained your process for covering your hereditary dark circles. In that video, you also discussed the possibility of getting filler and on later videos, you could see that you had in fact gotten them. You are the very first creator I’ve heard even question the long-term effect of fillers. I thought about getting them for the dark troughs near my inner corner/tear ducts but am afraid of the long-term effects. I think that if you can color-correct them as flawlessly as you do, do you really need to spend the $ on filler? I’m TOTALLY not against fillers, but in your case, you’re so amazing at finding the correct shades, warmth, etc, is there a need to take the risk? I use the NYX light shade color correctors. There are 6 shades in a square compact. I like it very much but can’t compare it to the Ben-Nye. As always, thank you for showing us your unbelievable talent and for guiding/teaching us with clear, detailed, and thorough directions/instructions!! 😘💙🤗💜😉
I'm not Alexandra but they do different things imo. Colour correcting neutralizes the tone of the dark circles so that they don't appear ashy under concealer, and fillers reduce the appearance of bags so that the shadow in that 'dip' doesn't add to the appearance of dark circles. I have dark circles and no matter how much correcting and concealing I do, the area will still look dark in certain angles and lighting because of the shadow caused by my eye bags.
So glad I found you! I have the same exact coloring as you and dark circles. This pale olive skin is such a pain! I like Urban decay naked skin in peach. I used to use boing concealer by iT, but it was discontinued. My undereye is very dry, and my skin is uber sensitive, so I have to use moisture rich products and powder makes me look 95 years old. Struggle is real. No shape tape or maybellene for me.
cdboomer do you like the urban decay?
@@everg14 I do! It's thin, but it has very good coverage. Definitely a different texture than I was used to.
Try having a darker complexion with olive undertones phew 😒
Really nice video! As a man who just got into makeup, I really need videos like this! I have horrible circles around my eyes which I want to get away with the makeup.
You say you dont go all the way up to the "creasing, area with your concealer, cause you use eyeshadow anyways there.
Got any tips for a masculine guy about what to do?, I cant use eyeshadow I guess, Im looking for a "no makeup look"
You're super talented!! Love you from 🇵🇷
❤️❤️❤️
As an owner of hereditary dark circles, I thank you xXx
I love your makeup tutorials! (Somebody is messing with your video, FYI. Although I think you might be aware. ) I don't know what the laws are in your country about using someone's video without permission to create digitally generated videos that modify the small pixels in a digital graphic file to create a simulation of the person. Some call this Artifical Intelligence, but that is not how I understand the term. Companies who scrape art and video are simply using computer programs to modify the many embedded color commands in a graphics file. There are also computer programs that use tags embedded in the programs to generate new images based on the images in a large database of images. I think that you already know this, I am just writing this out for your viewers who may not know this.
Hey love your channel! Thank you for being honest. I love that you have textured skin like me and show so many helpful tips. I'm trying to find that damn wheel on Amazon! Did you put the link up??? I can't find it 😢
I love makeup artists with a visual artist background and/or family! All the things I've been taught as a kid just by being raised by artists has been super helpful in understanding makeup. You can definitely tell which makeup artists you see online have an art background. They have such a good understanding and sensitivity of how products affect and transform the face, beyond just using makeup as "decoration".
First, I just wanted to say... I have watched hundreds of these videos and you are the only one that not only helps make sense of the logic behind color correctoring but you are hilarious and our skin tone is SO spot on similar. I also have pale olive skin and extremely dark circles that I have a difficult time covering without looking "grey". Thank you for all you do to help us all look and most importantly FEEL beautiful.
You are beautiful and you are perfect!
I would like to see the Urban Decay color correctors and concealers, also the ones from Nyx
Alexandra- what do you do with large CIRCLES? I’m 46 and have these wicked circles. Don’t know how else to explain it lol
This makes me wonder if my problem is using a too cool hue of color corrector (peach), because I'm east Asian so I have warmer skintone, maybe the peach-pink conflicts too much which is why my dark circles are still so gray. I will have to try maybe a yellow or apricot type of shade and hope that works better.
Damn, i just bought the Clinique concealer, not only 1, but 2. it was 50% off.
I should have watched this video first hahah :,)
I used to have dark circles - got rid of them - but now at 53 have small bags under my eyes - getting rid of them too slowly! But I DO love make up - oh how I love make up and your channel xxxx
I love your videos but I'm a redhead so I have very fair skin with complicated undertones (meaning it's very easy to find things that are too pink or too yellow -- I haven't found MY shade) anyways... My dark circles actually look purple on my skin. I need a lot of education about correction and Concealor.. I love your vids but I have to remember your skin is different than mine.
I have never used foundation or premier etc.. anyway a few years back I started trying foundation but I had so much trouble I quit looking. My skin tone I was told at ulta it's fair olive, but idk what color to use for my face. Please help. Thank you
We love that you know to stay within the depth of tone and that you're using Ben Nye! Most people don't realize they make beauty makeup as well! 🙌
I cannot wait to utilize your tips!! Genetic dark circles has been the bane of my existence - other than the fair olive tone! So, so, SO relieved to finally find some real advice that I can apply and not go yeeeaaah... Not gonna work!! Thank you so much!!
Your video ended up in my feed, I REALLY enjoyed it. I have very dark circles, and will look for the products you mentioned. I am also an artist (63), and subscribed :)
I hope it helps! ❤️❤️❤️
👩🎨🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️
I love your video’s!!! They are so helpful about real issues. Unlike all the lip filled fake tan twig bitches out there in TH-cam land who don’t work real jobs and live on a basic income. I thank you for being honest about the reviews and concerns you give about different products
And thanks again for discussing the dark eye issue a lot of us have, you are the best Alex 👍🏻👍🏻
8:42 for the color corrector application!
omg this just SAVED my life.
may translate your videos to brazilian portuguese?

I don’t understand when these things happen. I just watched concealing your under eyes and you used Becca color corrector. I don’t understand why you didn’t mention it why you stopped using it etc. I guess I’m upset because I just ordered the same shade. I should’ve waited till this video. I’ve been looking at the stila color corrector. You never respond to these but I’m frustrated.
I'm also a pale olive with lots of darkness around my eyes
And my eyelids are super veiny lol
Thank you thank you thank you! You listened to my request ❤️I’ve been contemplating buying that dragon Beauty color corrector since it’s self setting, have you tried it? I’m super dry and I don’t know if I can pull it off
I need to pick it up still but I’ll include it in a review of some sort!
Alexandra Anele I jumped the gun asking sorry I just heard you mention it in the video lol 😂 my bad. Thank you for the update on your under eye filler too!
I know this has nothing to do with a tutorial but in a way maybe it does because you brought it up sooo what kind of espresso do you like ? Goodness gracious sounds like a color of a bronzer or an eyeshadow or an eyeliner I don’t know where I’m going with us but .. 😳😩😂💐💐💐
I've spent a bunch of $$ and not confident about my shade choices for colour corrector, concealers or foundation. Just a grey mess really. Love your vid❤️
Has anyone tried the Charlotte Tilbury corrector? I had high expectations, but feel like the consistency is way to thick...
I’ve tried several correctors for my very dark circles in shades of peach and light bisques but I can still see my circles through my concealer. Any suggestions?
I just bought a yellow color corrector and now I'm confused what color to use because I think I'm just a little bit lighter than Alex. So what is the yellow one for? If fair people can use peachy tones
Ben Nye products ROCK!! Nothing like them!! ❤
You're awesome. I love that you bring your artist background to these tutorials - it helps so much.
What is the actual shade number of the peachy concealer from Ben Nye wheel?
YIKES! I'd never support a brand that Nikita profits from >.
Just discovered you tonight and I'm obsessed! You are so down to earth . Thank you for keeping it 💯
Alex help. I've got pretty dry undereyes and also dark circles and I feel like anytime I use corrector it's just a lot of product under my eyes and it makes my undereyes look very textured but not setting my undereyes doesn't seem like an option for me cuz I crease. But anytime I try a creamier consistency to combat the dryness my corrector just seems to mix in with my concealer.
Carol Ortiz let your corrector dry down for a few mins before going in over it. I I also do this with the top concealer. It really helps! And making sure I’m lightly tapping it on and not swiping which moves the products around. Oh and apply your concealer below your creases and cover the creases with shadow like Alex does. I used to have the creasing issue too bc when we have creases already it almost doesn’t matter what we put over them, how lightly we put product there or how well we set the area. It will still usually crease. Ever since I’ve been doing Alex’s method though it’s not been a prob at all, plus my eyes look prettier with shadow always underneath my lash line.
You could try using a darker concealer to cover the darkness, let it set and then using a lighter one on top.
Otherwise try reducing the amount of product you're using and setting it with powder and a spray. Play around with this. Try using oil on your under eyes at night to help your skin too
Make sure you don't stretch out the skin by kind of tightening it when you set... guh hard to explain what I mean. Need to make sure you keep looking forward and don't move your eyes. I find that helps a lot instead of kind of looking up when setting.
Please review catrice true skin high cover concealer? Thanks. Also, do you even put concealer over your foundation?
I finally figured out how to use my concealer palette correctly! Thank you so much! Bye bye dark circles!! 💁🏻♀️❤️
Thank you for all your dark circle help. I’ve been watching your concealer/ colour corrector videos and I feel like I’ve met my dark circle twin... except you handle the problem much better than I. Hopefully I can be better too now.😊
