Under Eye Concealer

Post by feyith » Thu Dec 03, 2009 1:35 pm

I think I desperately need me some Sleep in a Jar but I'm confused about all the color options. The only way I know how to describe my under eye circles is that they seem to be the exact same color as my skin tones except darker. Does that make sense? I fail at the color wheel. :(

I also really don't understand how I only get them on one side. It makes them even more noticeable to me.

I'm thinking you will probably want medium. I love that stuff...it does work wonders for those under eye circles. ;)

Really? I'm kinda pale. I use BE Fairly Light and Summer Bisque. Should I grab a sample of the regular and Light versions too?

feyith-
I think you need to try the lighter of the two. Medium will most likely be too dark.

You might try samples of both...I mixed the two together. Medium seemed to dark and light seemed too light. Jen is better at the color matching thing though. ;)
