Same exact situation with me. Majority of the time it looks worse when I try to cover them up.
such a drag:(
Thank you for being the most honest about dark circles and hollowed eyes on UA-cam! You did an amazing tutorial for REAL women that don’t bake or cake and have fine lines. Same issue here girl! Thanks!
I tried the baking or whatever and it made my under eye area look awful! Glad this was useful!
Finally someone with under eyes like me 😊 Great vid 😁 If you ever find a eye cream that gets rid of (temporarily) under eye pigmentation and puffiness please let me know 😊👍
ive had huge sunken eyes since i was like 7 (now 23), you are the first video which even starts to come close to what i have-- so thank you for sharing
Thank you for watching! I’m planning on trying some laser and plasma treatments for my dark under eyes after I have my baby and it’s safe to do so. I’ll be sure to post reviews and results!
I have very deep tear troughs and a bluish/purple discoloration right in the deepest part that is almost impossible to cover or even hide with beauty products. I am 38 and they have gotten so much worse over the last 5 years. I recently started using Jergens natural glow face moisturizer in medium to deep on my face, concentrating more specifically on my eye area by applying a tiny amount 3-4 times while allowing to dry in between applications. I usually apply at night after showering and then once in the morning with my regular moisturizer routine. This is the only product that I have used and had visible results with. It does not completely hide my deep tear troughs or discoloration areas, but it covers enough that I feel more confident about my appearance. My complexion is fair with neutral tones and the medium to deep colored moisturizer blends in evenly and looks natural.
I’m looking that product up right now! Thank you for the tip!
@@CaelaCook Another product I like is Clinique Moisture Surge Sheertint Hydrator (universal light medium). I mix it with my Clinique Even Better Glow makeup foundation to add a little color/glow to my face and help cover my eye trough area. I have combination oily skin so its too much hydration if I use it alone. Its a bit expensive, but if you have a clinique counter near by, you may ask for a sample to try. The Clinique Moisture Surge Face Spray- thirsty skin relief is good for an anytime moisture boost too and its fairly inexpensive for a large bottle.
thank you! I love Clinique products!
Thank You!!
A tip that helps me is not to use anything brightening/light-colored on the actual bag, just underneath it (where the shadow is cast) to highlight upwards. Applying light concealer to the bag actually makes it stand out more.
Thank you for the tip!
I'm 32 and it's been getting steadily worse for me. My whole eye is black and red and people asking about my health is such a sore spot. Thanks for this!
Glad it was useful! Unsolicited comments are the worst!
I have exactly the same eyebag problem like yours, and it's really time consuming to do something about it but with very little improvement. I'll have to watch this video again and learn from you. Thank you for embracing your natural self and not going for all those procedures which are painful, dangerous and only temporary at its best
glad it help! thank you for watching!
Also , one recommendation to try is buying a very thin thin brush and placing a lighter thin layer color concealer in the dark line area.
awesome thank you!
I totally agree with you about setting the under eyes with setting powder! Even the best, finely milled powder drys and cakes under my eyes!
Exactly!
You are so beautiful!! I struggle with all the same things, so your video was SUPER helpful. Thank you so much!! ❤️❤️❤️
Yay so glad it helped 😊 the struggle is real!
I relate to your tutorial (on under eyes) more than anyone else (and I’ve see a lot!). We have the same skin type (pale and dry, with obvious veins in my upper lids and deep under eyes/dark circles. We use similar products too. However, I’ve never color corrected. I will give it a try! I use the maybelline Fit Me Dewy & smooth foundation (for my dry skin) and then use the Bye Bye under eye cream and then the Becca hydra mist setting powder. Thanks for the amazing tutorial! You look great btw 🙂
hey there, thank you for watching! Ill have to try to that setting spray I can never find one I like!
Mee too
I do too. Same dry, pale, also allergic, but we are young, this is hard to deal with. I use under eye patches, but they only help for a few hours before. Best!
Followed because our undereye area looks identical LOL thank you so much for your help
You are so welcome!!
18:23 I have the same problems with my eyes! All the other videos I watched wanted me to put tons of products on and I had the same problem you had it looked cakey! In so happy I came across your video! Thank you so much! I'm so embarrassed by the way I look anyway but having the troughs under my eyes and the darkness doesn't help. Maybe this will give me just a little confidence back. I'll be looking for more videos 😊❤
Awesome thank you for watching!
Watch dear peachie they have a good video on concealing.
Instead of layering all those products you can try just correcting the dark line with a small brush, corrector and concealer. Aly kat has a video on it. Instead of putting all that product all over you can focus just on the dark area and hollow. I have the same problem and doing all this stuff does not hide the circle, it just makes the rest of the area lighter.
Thank you I’ll have to check out that video!
4:59 That's how I feel watching you! LOL
My eye area is SOOOOO much darker than yours. It's not just under me eyes, it's a full circle. Plus it's a greenish brown color, not the run-of-the-mill purple/blue.
Not only that, but my eyes are also very deep-set, and the hollow under them is ridiculous.
It's very strange because my skin is pretty light (I'm officially a redhead), but anyone who looks at me will probably say I have medium/deepish skin, because my eye area makes a huge impact, plus I have melasma right under my eyes, and freckles so... quite a combination of factors!
You have quite even skin! 6:16 Look at that! Just a layer of foundation and the circles are pretty much gone! :D
Thank you! What products do you use?
I have similar eye circles and puffiness. I haven’t found anything that helps much. The LA Girl does seem to cover the hyperpigmentation but the puffiness causes a shadow under it. I’ve seen others use a lighter shade corrector in the hollow and then a darker shade corrector in the puffy area. Does seem to help a bit.
Thank you!
Omg , I have the same face from lower lash down ! Skin too
😍 awesome o always try to find people with my skin type and pick their brain on products! What do you like to use?
Thank you for this! I have had dark purple creases my whole life and they just keep getting worse but im too scared to do plastic surgery
Eck I hate it!
Yay! have the same products! Thank you for this video! I spent a ton of money on a blepharoplasty with fat repositioning. It didn’t work. (When the swelling came down it looked 20% better…) Then spent $1000 on under eye/cheek filler which only worked a little. My one eye is much worse than the other and it ruins every photo. Ugh.
Thank you for watching! Did the doctor say that the blepharoplastry would work, did they have any feedback after it didn’t? I haven’t found much luck with fillers either. 😠
I would suggest getting a very small brush and concentrate the color corrector right in that spot only, then the concealer and corrector only where it is dark. You are beautiful no matter what!
😘💨❤️
Thank you!
I put a lighter concealer just in the shadow to make it go away. I think I learned it from a Wayne Goss tutorial. It has saved me!
What light concealer do you use?
@@CaelaCook Lumene, and I mix it with a white one from NYX.
Try the mac prep and prime, its a highlighter but eraser really well for this.
Will do thanks for the recommendation!! I haven’t tried that!
Use your finger and apply the setting spray over the concealed area and gently pat the area until it dries off keeps the makeup from setting in fine lines.
Great tip!
Caela my skin tone and eye issues are practically identical to yours, though I am older (50) so have a few more wrinkles compounded into the mix ... I can never get the sunken look completely gone, but can minimize it some from its au natural appearance.
For concealer, you might want to give the Bare Minerals BarePro (I use the shade "light/medium-neutral") a try, I am loving this one and sometimes even use it on my entire face instead of foundation ... it acts more like a tinted moisturizer, invisible once on but evens the skin tone.
My skin also leans on the dry side and I have found using a couple spritzes of the Too Faced 3-in-1 coconut setting spray gives back that moisturized look after the light dash of powder, which I do as well.
Thanks for sharing your tips as I know this is a frustrating and challenging trouble area for many of us.
Thanks for those tips! Now that its winter I am finding my makeup by the end of the day makes me look older, all the makeup is settling into my wrinkles. Im also pregnant and can't get botox so I might try that bare minerals product!
Hi where can I get the Bare minerals from. My daughter ordered it for me in 2019 when I was in UK and she says she can’t get it anymore. Please let me know
Good question have you looked online
@@sandraboullineau5283 Ulta sells it ... and I believe Macy's does as well, but definitely Ulta. Can order from them online if there isn't one near you. Personally I would avoid Amazon as you never know if you're getting the real product or a knock off.
I have a trick, and it’s using a nude waterproof eye pencil. Works like a charm and stays all day. Just use a small amount of powder over it after feathering it out with a brush.
Thank you what brand is it?
One thing, although it is very expensive but I got it for a birthday. . . the Avene intensive RetinAl cream and their PhysioLift RetinAl eye cream is helping me at night, but it's an investment. It doesn't make this go away. Also years ago I was given a Ziip beauty microcurrent and i love it does help if I use it a few times a week, also expensive but I use it instead of botox or filer. Not sure what to do.
ill look into those, thank you!
The LA girl has a white version... you could add a drop of white to the color corrector, or a drop if a light concealer that you already have to make it lighter. But I find I need a darker shade to actually cover my dark under eye pigment. I haven’t mastered how to make it work, except for when I have a tan! Maybe I should try self tanning my face!
Good idea I feel like my under eyes area looks betters when I’m tan
Your still very beautiful and you have very nice eyes and eyebrows. Like Kate Hudson. ❤️
Wow, thank you!
I know they are going out of business but the becca does look very nice. I am hoping to get it cosmetics soon.
Im so sad about Becca. I bought 2 jars. Im worried about finding a future replacement!
@@CaelaCook Yes it's a mini crisis. Some other company has to but it. That is what I keep hoping. There isn't anything like Becca. .💓
I know 🙃
I have horrible puffiness and under eye troughs. I've had them since I was much younger so not sure if it's due to age or some sinus or allergy issues I never really resolved. I'm so self conscious about them and always wearing sunglasses to hide them. I can't afford plastic surgery so I need a good makeup regime to help hide them the best I can. I wear expensive good quality concealers but feel it's still not enough.
So frustrating! I can’t wait to be done with my second pregnancy to see the cosmetic center I go to. You can always get a free consult to see what they think the root cause may be.

@@CaelaCook I've been thinking about maybe getting a referral to see a dermatologist or some sort of specialist from my family doctor. I suspect it may be an internal issue. Could even be dehydration. I don't drink enough water 💧
Use a yellow color corrector. If you have anything near a purple/ red undereye discoloration. Use a yellow color corrector VERY carefully. In the tear trough. Then put your concealer on top.
Thank you for sharing!
I have the same problem. You mentioned fillers for the under eye area. Would you please tell us whats the name of the filler
Hello! I got Restylane. I also did a video on the before and after. Here is the link ua-cam.com/video/eLSSROG8v4c/v-deo.html
I have the exact same under eye problems 🤯😪
It’s a huge bummer!
I can't belive I see someone using coconut oil under the eyes...I have been using this for years (58 yrs old) and never hear of anyone else using it. I carry a tiny bottle of it in my purse and mid day when under eye concealer starts looking horrid :-( I tap a very tiny amount under my eyes to revive my concealer or you can even add a tiny bit more concealer over it. It really gives a flawless look!! (I repurposed the tiny bottle use from a sample I received at Sephora). 😊🌺
Good tip!
Before you go to bed you should put pure organic castor oil under your eyes in about a week the difference is amazing/
Such a beautiful woman!
Thank you 😊
Yours look better then mine. No matter what concealer I use it doesn’t cover them up.
That’s hard to imagine! Do you have the same skin tone?
I end up buying almost every new concealer that comes out in hopes it helps. still haven't found the one 😂
Me: watching tutorial - oh no! Is that my cat? Runs away to find both kitties sleeping soundly .
ha!
I'm 55 and have natural really bad dark circles. Please help. What to buy that don't cost a fortune. I have blonde hair. If that matters.
Def a prescription grade retinol, see a med spa for a free consult! Retinol makes the biggest difference for the cost!
Yes! I have been watching some videos and they have no problems to begin with! Not helpful for me.
so true, if I got anywhere without concealer I get asked if im sick or tired. Its like "no this is just my face"
@@CaelaCook 😂
Have same problem but seems like more product used gets more wrinkles...creases...I look tired all the time 🥴
The struggle is real!
Unfortunately bye bye under eye has no idea how to work with my skin tone.
sorry to hear that!
You have a great jaw line
Thank you!
For my undereye hollowness, I've found that the only thing that fixes this for me are fillers :(
Thank you for your input, I don’t know why I’ve never had success with fillers maybe I should try a different doctor. With your fillers do they go through your cheek and into your under eye area? I always creeps me out
@@CaelaCook For some reason, when they injected Juvederm my body absorbed it. When they injected Dysport or Radiesse, it worked. They carefully injected the filler into my cheek areas and rubbed it upwards. I finally had volume again. My undereyes are so hollow that concealer just changes the color of my hollows. I think genetics is to blame in my case. 😟
I don’t even try. There’s no point. It’s sunken to my cheek and also bags and blue/purple and brownish around my eyes I look really sick 31
:(
I look sick too! It actually makes me feel physically bad if I don't use some concealer 😢 . Katie from Beauty and the Boutique has "challenging" dark circles too and she has great ideas but I haven't found a concealer yet that works for me 😕 Tried pretty much everything!! Must be something with my crazy eyes...
The cat is crying. I have to watch it again because the cat’s cry gets to me…. I’m a cat lover 😢😢😢.
😭
Mine are 100% the same but my skin is more olive?
Do you feel like your darker skin blends them more ? I always feel like they wouldn’t be so bad if I was tan
Im not that dark...a fair olive colour...mine are very deep due to a sinus allergy which is a pain...their very purple in colour like ive been punched in the eyes lol just underneath the eyes.
You look like Kate Hudson’s sister ❤
Thank you!
Let your kitty in. Poor baby. Under wise your makeup video is good.
thank you!
You resemble Kate Hudson.
Thank you 😊
I wasn’t wowed by the Kiehl’s either
yea I don't know what the hype was
My tear troughs are worse than yours. A lot worse
Mine is too!! Its bad and the Hollowness is more prominent too.😔😔
how old are you,? Ive noticed mine have gotten worse over the years. But even when I was little I looked blue under the eyes!
@@CaelaCook I’m 43. And yes I have always had dark circles under my eyes. I hate them so much and am always looking at UA-cam tutorials to try to improve them. I also have the Becca corrector and I don’t really feel it does that much. I use Kryolan. It in the class of dermablend and is supposed to be able to cover a tattoo. It does help but nothing will correct the indent from the tear trough. I wish I could fill it in with something that I could put on my face topically. Maybe someday I will get fillers. Oh well. Definitely first world problems 😆
Ya I’m not in love with the Becca I actually found that using less looks better than using more. I do have a video on fillers before and after, my experience wasn’t the best 😔
😔
You are beautiful like everyone says, but I know this problem! Ugh.
thanks girl, this problem is no fun. I am planning to try laser or platelet treatment after I am done breastfeeding. Ill be sure to update.
Animal abuse omg!!! Lololol
Why’s that?
I don't really see much of an improvement on the bags. The dark circles look better. Also, why on earth would you need botox at 31?! Not judging, I'm absolutely foe botox if you need it, I just can't see a 31 year old needing botox. If you're that unhappy with your skin now, you're prob not going to like it that much later.
I’m not sure what the point of your comment was. Some people naturally get wrinkles early due to genetics. While African Americans and Asians for example have skin that doesn’t wrinkle until very old age.
