Steps to follow:

1

The area around the eyes is extremely sensitive, so before starting we must prepare the skin. First, thoroughly remove all traces of make up and mascara from around the area and then apply eye contour cream, one that is refreshing and will reduce swelling and keep skin hydrated. It is important for the treatment to be effective that you apply it around the eyes with small touches from the outside inwards, this will help reduce eye bags.

2

Now, with a good clean face, we can implement the first step to hide under eye bags with make up. Our best ally will be the corrector. Ideally apply the corrector just under the bag, that is, in the recessed portion. Unlike the dark lines beneath the eyes, to work on bags specifically we must not apply a corrector with a light tone as this will not camouflage but rather highlight the bags. Choose a beige corrector similar to your skin colour or a tone darker, these are perfect to camouflage the prominence of the bags. For best results you can do this step before and after applying your foundation.

It is important to note that if you want to hide under eye bags with make up you should not use a foundation that provides too much brightness to the face. Matt foundations are better, then use a small brush to apply a little translucent powder.

Dark eyeliners are not suitable when trying to hide bags under the eyes because it highlights the swelling and hardens the look. Opt for lining the eye with a beige pencil so that your eyes look bigger, awake and bright.
