Neat Trick:

(I don’t think this will work on all skintones, but for people with medium to golden tan skin with yellow undertones, it probably will.)

I have a bad problem with bluish dark circles underneath my eyes and I’ve had a hard time finding a something easy to correct and conceal with.

I was messing around with MAC’s Samoa Silk eyeshadow, and found that the color is orangey enough to cancel out the bluish darkness, and peachy enough to brighten the undereye area.

It’s not as full coverage as liquid or cream concealer obviously, but is sheer enough that its easy to swipe on compared to the time it takes me to blend out thicker concealers. 


I'm very fair and very cool toned. Can I do peaches and peachy pinks? If so, can you recommend some I should try? Thank you so much! from Anonymous

I think anyone can pull off any color, but it seems like most online beauty sources I’ve read say that very fair skin should watch out for blush that’s too orangey-peach toned. Try blushes on the more pinky peach side to be safe!

Milani Blush in Luminoso is a peachy pink shade that I think looks good on almost everybody. There’s MAC Pinch-O-Peach Sheertone Blush, or Buxom True Hue Blush in Swept Away (a peachy nude color that goes on pretty sheer, so it will look more natural!)
