I've used up to 3 different shades of correctors under my concealer to cancel out my darkness. I just lightly use each one. I get up so early and never rest, ever. That's my problem. I'll keep looking for answers to help you!❤️

@Midmod  you and @monicakm are so sweet for wanting to help me find a solution.  Thank you!

Re: RMS Concealer - 2nd Thoughts

@Midmod and @monicakm and @nyc1  and @fthunt 

 

Well I tried something new today and so far it seems to be working out quite well.  Actually, I also tried it yesterday but with a different concealer.

 

Today I used the IT Bye Bye Undereye concealer - yep tried this again - in the shade Medium Neutral.  Much better shade than the Light Neutral I tried the other day.  This time I tried a new application.

 

did not use any eye cream this morning.  This was something that Wayne Goss suggested in a recent concealer video.  I first applied the Pixie Peach Corrector to the bluish hollows with a Morphe 124 flat shader brush. It's got a long, narrow brush head.  I held my eye area taut ever so slightly to make sure the corrector got in all the cracks and crevices and patted it in well.  Put the smallest of dots on my hand of concealer and warmed it up first then wiith a Morphe 321 small pointed brush applied it over the Corrector, again gently held the eye area taut to make sure the concealer got into the cracks and crevices and patted and blended the edges out.  This is not a fast process by any means.  I did not powder as I wanted to see what the corrector and concealer did on their own.  It's been about 3 hours and so far everything is looking much better than I expected.  I do think powder will help it though so will do this again tomorrow and try the powder.

 

Keeping fingers crossed.  Thank you all again for your suggestions and help.  So thankful for all the wonderful ladies on this Board.

What does the absence of eye cream do?

@Midmod  - I think, for me, it keeps the concealer from breaking down and looking patchy.

If I don't hydrate underneath my eyes, they look drawn and pulled and dry ( with concealer dried into a road map at end of day). Everyone's skin is different though. I hope this works for you 🤞
