- Опубліковано 7 лют 2022
- HEY. So you may have seen these makeup tutorials on tiktok and insta reels where people are using super full coverage white concealer to cover up their dark circles, brighten, and lift their eyes. WELLLLLL I basically always do this now, but I DON'T use a ridiculously thick white concealer and slather my foundation on top 🙃 So imma show you what I do to coneal, brighten and lift 😘

Only a minute in and can’t get over how stunning your skin looks!
😭 Thank you so much 🙏🏼❤️❤️❤️
i love how simplistic your videos are
🙏🏼❤️
I agree with this so much. The only time I would is for making eyeshadow stand out, and even then you don’t need a lot. I’m pretty fair but even the white is too light for me. Thick coverage isn’t my thing anymore now that I’m in my mid 30’s. Great video as always!
These thick ass concealers just aren't it 😂🙌🏼
I agree but I need some thickness for stronger coverage. But like Alexandra I don't put it close to my under eye to prevent creasing
same here :D
You have completely reshaped my relationship w makeup, thank you! It is like being a little painter and more is not always better
Thank you for making these popularized makeup techniques more believable, wearable, and practical
I've always like the way you do your make-up, it's light and looks natural...other videos emphasises on thickness of products they file on their faces..I will be 70 years old this year and I agree that as you get older changes of the way you do your face is important and not try to cover it with so much crap...loved your style 😀
I love your no-nonsense tutorials! you explain the technique and the why and how so clearly!
I love how she's so direct without a long intro. Keep up the great work!
Thank you for teaching me how to do my makeup much better and not telling me that coverage is all the matters. You tought me techniques ❤️
I love you ❤️
😩❤️
I really appreciate that you don't use skin filter for your videos. Your skin is already beautiful as it is, and I find that being honest about skin texture and how foundation & concealer doesn't hide that makes me feel better about myself, also teaches me better about how to use makeup for my own face.
I just love how she takes the time to reply to comments 🙌🏼
I don’t always really see a difference in different contouring techniques, but this was (no pun intended) eye opening! What a small but wonderful difference. I’m going to give this one a try!
not having music in videos is really nice for me personally. super informative!
Damn... Your skin is glistening ... Absolute goals ❤️
Its called filters and primers and tinted moisturizers, great lighting. . I wish influencers were honest.
Girl your camera quality is choice, thank you-I can actually see what you're doing.
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Hi Alexandra, thank you for all your videos. You taught me so much! One aspect of make up I'm still struggling with, however, is powder. What is the difference between setting powder, loose powder, foundation powder, etc. and how do I use them? Would you want to make a video about this?
Seeing the side by side of normal concealer vs concealer + brightening was super helpful for getting a sense of the difference the technique makes
I am minimalizing my makeup routine/collection but the products I felt like I couldn't part with were all my under eye brighteners, color correctors, etc... you just fixed this for me! Thank you. Your vidoes are literally the only makeup ones I watch anymore. So helpful!
obsessed with how you break down techniques and explain how they affect the way your face looks. a lot of times i've been just copying what other people do without understanding the mechanics and since i started watching your channel i've learnt so much!! i feel like i'm applying my makeup a lot more consciously now and as a result i love how the end results look so much more. thank you for making makeup so accessible for people like me who have no idea what we're doing lolol
Wow, that really makes a beautiful difference. I’m going to try this. Thanks Alex!
Love your tutorials. You're so unbelievably naturally beautiful. Love the fact you get straight to the point 😁 x
Great technique. Makes the eyes look lifted and brighter.
thank you for making sense & genuinely helping people to look their best 🤙
I love you! You’re videos are always so easy to understand.
I love these types of videos about specific techniques and solutions. Thanks! Also, my Rare Beauty concealer that is too light for me will be perfect for this-lightweight but bright. Cheers!
I’ve actually been doing this with a white or ivory matte eyeshadow, on top of a bit of eyeshadow base (so the eyeshadow sticks a bit better. White for when I want it to look more cohesive with a cool eyeshadow look and ivory when I want it for a more natural/neutral or no-makeup look. )
I use the white concealer by ELF or the palest (0.5?) concealer by Kosas to mix with other concealers that are a touch too dark for me.
What I’ve found, is that I HATE thick concealers and foundations. My skin is dryyyyyyy so thick products really show off how dry it is. I really like the new nyx serum concealer and truthfully, I don’t even like brightening. I like when it’s close to my skin tone so I don’t look like a ghost. Lol love your videos!
Yes would love to see the full coverage white concealer technique
Yes!! I'm so glad you don't want to cake it all on! Ever since you started doing this in your videos, I've adopted it and I really like the difference.
Love this, looks so subtle and shimmery!
I would love to see you do this technique. Thanks for sharing your expertise. 😘
you are just absolutely stunning & i am in love with your content ♡♡
Girl thank you for saying it about the filters
I love your makeup tutorials ☺️💯❤️🔥
I've kinda been doing this for some time.
Once I understand the light and shade rule, I applied it to my concealer steps.
# Apply concealer as usual (a doe foot either side of the eye), dab out.
# Using another concealer (two shades lighter than the previous one), apply one small dot either side of the eye AND a thin line in the "trough" area. Let sit for 30 seconds and dab out.
The areas of dark circles are diminished and the "trough" area has been "brought forward".
Works every time 😊. 💗💜💗
I really appreciate that you explain why people do such-and-such thing because it creates such-and-such effect. Your explanation of pushing things back in space and bringing things forward in space has helped me understand makeup so much more. Thanks for the videos!
Great tutorial! I’m going to start adding this to my routine. Thank you!
Wow. Thank you. Very helpful x
sooooooo helpful!!! thank you!!!!!!
The most gorgeous skin tone EVER.
Yay you did the video , thanks x
Your skin! Beautiful!
Alex!! Tysm this is perfect
I just love your channel! You’re soo stunning 💕
I love your videos. They’re so helpful
Omg. The thumbnail 😍 you are radiating
I’ll have to try the Sephora concealer! I use the Dior Forever concealer in their shade 00 Universal Brightener (which isn’t on Sephora, but is on the Dior website) for this purpose. I love the formula.
Love this simple and easy 💖
Great idea❤
Omg thanks for this vid!
😘
I appreciate this!!! I'm a little concerned about 2 concealers layered on without it getting funky. But I'll try it because I really need the lift and brightening. Thank you so much!!! I want to see it with your full face done.
blessed with another video to get me through the week
I like to watch your tutorials very much, not just because you teach in a brilliant way, but because you have very similar features to me and practically almost the same skin tone.
But what honestly makes my day after watching any of your videos, is feeling more normal, confident and pretty. Because of owning the same quirks as you do (hollow eye sockets, purple circles, greyish dark inner corners and weirdly dark outer corners, creasy lower lids since the age of effin' 5) and seeing You mushing your face into the camera and working and dashing with all of it - is just the most encouraging way, after how most beauty ideals are around us.
So to put it bluntly: you are very pretty and therefore I am, too and we rock. Hope you have a nice week : )
You are so awesome. Honestly though. You’re brave to put yourself out here on the Internet, you are confident in what you share, and so real! Just a great vibe and personality. I very much appreciate your videos and what you share :)
Thank you 💙
I'm not on socials enough to see this trend but it kinda baffles me in concept. I love that you're my age so it's more realistic to my situation. I tried a color corrector for my eyes based on your videos (don't have super dark circles but it's more than I used to lol) and it made a big difference!
I have been enjoying the elf brightening concealer. Love that its a pen
Thank you !! I’m going to try this asap with a korean cc cream that work as a veeery lightwear foundation.
Revolution Eye Bright is such a nice brightening concealer and so lightweight!
Dude, these are the best makeup videos.
Love these simple tutorials! 💕
Off topic, but possible topic - brow maintenance. Not sure if you need and/or do yourself but I literally just trimmed my brows for the first time this week & it made such a difference! Can be intimidating AF tho. Anyway, just a thought!
yes| super helpful!! will do for my caverns. xoxoxoxo
I love your “uhh hey!” 😁
damn girl your glowiness is deff goal 👏
Your videos are the best, dear ♥️
😩 Thank you love 🙏🏼
@@AlexandraAnele 😭 you’re welcome!
Such good info! I'm not going out much, and do wear a mask, so only need to have my eyes look less scary. This is perfect! Love your videos!
I live for those Sephora gel serum concealers. That’s what I use for brightening too!
The difference is insane. I love your fresh take on this technique!
I would love to see a video on mascara placement! Seems kind of obvious, but I seem to always regret when I put mascara on my bottom lashes? Even when you do more natural makeup looks and put mascara on your bottom lashes your eyes still seem so lifted and open! I feel like it drags my face down or something. I don’t know shit about fuck 🤷🏻♀️
You don't have to wear mascara on your bottom lashes!
if your problem is your bottom lashes being too thick, try taking the tip of your mascara wand and lightly brushing against the tips of the hairs. it’ll add some length while keeping mascara on the bottom minimal!
using a brown mascara instead of black helped me a bit too
@@sabrinacruz7141 these are excellent tips thank you!!
I’ve stopped wearing mascara on my lower lashes for the same reason! I think dark, heavy lower lashes are great for 60s looks, or for creating a rounder, more down-turned eye shape. For me at least, the middle of my lower lashes are the longest and fullest section and can look pretty dramatic with mascara. So putting mascara on my lower lashes sort of draws the attention down (creates height) and to the centre instead of up and out, like the upswept, lengthened eye look that’s popular rn
I use the lightest Nars brightener and it's lovely (we have mostly the same undertone)
Would love to see the full white concealer technique.
Ooh I’d love to try this. I’d have to use white concealer though. That jouer snow concealer is just the same colour I am
Less really is more! Curious to see you try the white concealer trick, especially since you're already fair
Hey Alex! Could you do a video on how to get eyeshadow to be more pigmented when you put it on. Is it only based on the quality of the shadow or can the primer make a difference? I'm specifically having trouble with purple shades. They always look grayed out when I put them on.
Question about this: what if you were JUST doing this for photos and you were doing some facial restructuring with your highlight and contour? Would you still recommend just using a lighter concealer, or would you go for white in that scenario? Since this is me we’re hypothetically talking about, I’m even fairer than you (if you can imagine such a thing) with a true neutral undertone. Thank you! I always learn so much from you!! 🖤🤍🖤
So pretty, I love low coverage makeup! Now I just need to find a product that matches my skin tone and get rid of my acne 😅
I liked before watching just because I know i will totally enjoy what you share with us 😬
Kinda early, hope you notice because I love your videos, simplicity and tricks so much !!
Boy sure do like ur tutorials👀
I'm gonna check out that sephora concealer. I usually use the Nars radiant concealer in 2 different shades and I also use the one in the soft matte one by Nars. I love their skin products.
Ahh yes the older I get the less appealing that thick coverage seems. I ended up not even buying a full coverage foundation anymore, though occasionally when I do get dramatic with my eye makeup I feel like I do want one. Anyway, thanks for the video! I learned a lot over just 7 mins
I just now realize how much of my daily make up routine is affected by your videos 😍
Please do a video on the bright white concealer. I just wanna watch it lol 🤣♥️
I'm one of your let's say, more mature subscribers. I usually use the light in the latte palette but going to buy the jouer snow, to apply first in my inner corner and the tip I didn't know about the outer corner is going to be amazing on me, even if I do say myself! . The subtle changes you do make such a big difference. Thank you for sharing 👍
i really wanna see some cool eyeshadow looks again, i loved that one video you have with the deep blue and gold colors eye look (sorry i forgot what it was called)
You're awesome
Why was I having the thought that you matched your shape tape shade with your hair 🤡🥲😭 the trick was really good tho Alex!
When I first saw your channel, I was honestly convinced you had the most gorgeous face ever 💖
Thought it’d be a nice, real comment to read xx
Definitely much more natural!! I don't think I could do full-on white! I really don't think it's necessary. You are looking flawless, btw!!! I'm glad your skincare journey is going well. I have a struggling 19 who hates her face on the daily. ☹️☹️
Thanks for always being so helpful! Your videos are a fave!! Blessings to you, Alex!! ✌️💚🙏
Dang girl! I'm 32 and I thought you were significantly younger than me because your skin looks so amazing! I wish mine looked half as good as yours! 🤩
Thanks for all the awesome videos! They are so helpful and much appreciated!
I usually get two of any concealer I buy. One matching my foundation and one a few shades lighter for brightening.
I have a white concealer that I use when I am using bright colors but even that is not snow white. Its the very palest beige close to white.
I feel bad for saying I love that you have dark circles! But your talent is so appreciated since I have them too and always look forward to learning from you ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Can you do a review on adding Pink to your concealer. It’s all over tic tock
Believe it or not but "back in the day" (mid to late 1980s) I used to use a white Maybelline stick concealer to draw a white stripe down the center of my nose to "slim" it... it had a decent consistency not unlike my holy grail Max Factor Erase concealer. I also used to use an off white powder eyeshadow to camouflage blue veins under my eyes over my fair skin. Now at 52, I'd love to have a white Maybelline Age Rewind concealer to play with because of its thin consistency and ease of blending.
Uh hey! I’m so early 🥺❤️ YAY
Oh haaaaay ❤️
@@AlexandraAnele !! You really just made my day 🙌
If I wanted to try this with a more budget friendly product, do you think the Maybelline Instant Age Rewind in the brightener shade would work?
So so good dammit. You make makeup look like skin not like a mask like everyone is doing these days.. the best. You are the top as far as I'm concerned on here. 😜😜❤
Definitely agree alex! Comes out looking nice , but a shit load of product, first video I ever saw thought maybe she was shooting for clown effect. And then it looked nice. Think I’ll stick to your recommendation I. Never go wrong with anything you recommend 🙏🏼💕 thank you for being everything good and beautiful 💕🙋🏼♀️
😩 Thank you love 🙏🏼❤️
What do you use on your skin. It is perfect 😍
Thank you for this video. Some of these "trends" are just so ridiculous! I simply use the Becca Under Eye Brightening. I use my finger to blend that out. Then use a tiny amount of concealer over it. Blending the same way. I'm also 31 with fair olive skin, deep set green eyes & blonde hair. & yes, girl. Less is absolutely more!!
I like this method, but I would like to see the white concealer under foundation method. My favorite brightening concealer is the fit me concealer, it is a bit drying though.
Great video, I love the info. I'm a middle aged broad that can't sleep, so I can't use the heavy coverage. Stuff just sicks into the lines and waves hi. Do you know if the elf brightening pen is any good?
Much love to you and yours!
