Create bright eyes
A problem for most women is bags under the eyes. Trying to conceal the shadows with tonnes of make-up is not the answer though – you need to apply the right eye make up too.
- Use smooth eye cream and a good concealer that will cover up the dark circles.
- Apply pale eye shadow just under the eyebrow. This will instantly make the eyes look brighter and fresh. If you’re not one for eye shadow, using brilliant volumising mascara will instantly make you look more awake.
- For a night out, false lashes are brilliant. Simply apply liquid or pencil eyeliner to cover the lash roots.
- If your eyes are tired and red, perk them up with an over the counter eye bath solution or use luke-warm water to calm and relax.
