    This video is heaven sent because honestly some days I would rather just allow my dark circles to show through rather than packing on a concealer, and topping with a powder that just makes my under eyes appear wrinkly and OLD.

    I found your video last week and tried your routine over the weekend. Oh my gosh!!! It worked! It worked! It worked. I've tried so many things, so many ways and nothing, nothing worked. Thank you so much. My under eye areas are so plumbed, and hydrated and beautiful. I can't say enough. THANK YOU.

    Great tips Stephanie! I moisturize my undereye like crazy before I apply my concealer..totally works to eliminate the crepeness.

    Hi Stephanie. Loved this video. I’m 60 and the under eyes are an important area. I also pat the loose powder under my eyes with a damp beauty blender as you do. It works very well!! 💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝💝

    Love the coconut oil idea. I use to use it religiously but got away from it for some reason. I’m definitely gonna start it again with these 47 yr old under eyes. 😘

    Thank you for this video!! Since I turned 35 I been trying to find a better makeup and skin regime. My underage has been a problem with my concealer looking cakey and dry. I tried this entire regime and my underage definitely looks refreshed! You are a lifesaver!!

    Oh, the dreaded creasing of concealer of the eye. Ugh! Nothing ages us faster. Thanks so much for doing this video. I am so self-conscious about my under eye area and have been very curious about trying oil under makeup. Will definitely start using a Beauty Blender for setting powder. These tips are great and much appreciated by this 50-year-old fan. - xx, Carla from 2 Real Chicks Channel

    Hello. I am 65 and have dry undereyes with the thin skin that is thin and tends to wrinkle. People have told me though that my skin looks good for my age. I use the Kiehls Avacado eye cream during the day and at night I swear by Antipodes Kiwi Seed Oil eye cream. Years ago, I bought that one based on Estee’s recommendation and I have never used anything else at night. It is amazing!

    • @snowggirl
      @snowggirl 7 лет назад +2

      Denise Fincher same age as you and one genius tip I now use is squaline oil under tube type concealer. NO powdering The oil keeps the concealer flexible so less fine lines.

    Thank you for this video. I am 54, and along with the lines that generally come with aging I have severely dark circles from lack of sleep (one of those crappy menopausal symptoms). After watching your earlier videos on concealers and correctors, I tried a few and found the Tarte CC did work best at helping to diminish the dark circles, but I found it was drying a bit and would crease. I tried warming it up between my fingers, tried it with moisturizers and without it, but still lots of creasing and added crepiness. I did try a few of the concealers with some success, but I am using the EL one you mention and found it works better than most for me. I have moisturized my under eye, not moisturized, powdered and not powdered, used under eye setting powders, regular powders, but still maintained some unacceptable level of crepiness and creasing that just aged me beyond my 54 years. I have tried the beauty blender, brushes, fingers, etc and you are most correct, the damp beauty blender worked best for me. I realize that my lines under my eyes may just be too much for any product (or combo of products) to overcome completely and I can live with that, but anything I can do to minimize the look I will sign up for. I did throw some oil under the eye this morning and that did seem to help. I just used a facial oil sample I had gotten some time ago and figured what could it hurt. I will definitely give the coconut oil a try. I never thought about adding some primer. Seems like I've thrown everything else at my under eyes, but never an eye primer, but will add that to my arsenal of under eye products to try. I will also definitely be purchasing this Color Science corrector. I've just about given up correcting the dark circles in favor of less product under my eye so my under eyes don't look so crepey and old. Thank you for so much for continuing to bring good options, tips and recommendations for this area that way too many of us are sadly battling.

      @jodyfro1312 7 лет назад +4

      Same! I have tried just about every product (corrector, concealer and powder) known to man. I’ve tried so many techniques. What seems to help slightly is that I use It Cosmetics Bye Bye Lines serum first (after a face mist and May Coop Raw Sauce all over) then an eye cream - currently Kiehl’s Avocado, letting each soak in. But the underdog product that is giving me the best correction with the least amount of product is the Pixi Correction Concentrate in Brightening Peach. Just a dab works miracles, more than Benefit Erase Paste or Becca Undereye Corrector. Then I apply concealer (Shape Tape or Tarte Creaseless, whatever) but it is the powder that kills it. I have yet to find a powder that doesn’t make it worse.
      For the record, I’m not digging Becca’s new under eye primer and powder. I look a hot mess using those new releases.

    • @robinc713
      @robinc713 7 лет назад +1

      Thanks for the heads up about the Pixi product. I will give it a try as well. Benefit paste did not work for me either. It was a little too drying for me as well no matter how little product I used. I am using the Kiehl's right now as well.

    • @robinc713
      @robinc713 7 лет назад +1

      Most days my circles peak through correctors and concealers too!

      Robin Baker , I know I'm commenting really late on this, but have you ladies tried not setting your under eyes with powder at all? What I mean is, hydrate your under eye area, conceal and do your makeup, and then spray some setting spray on your beauty blender and press it into your under eye area. Then finish your makeup and spray your completed makeup look with setting spray again. This method might work better since the setting spray is hydrating. The powder dehydrates. It works pretty well for me. Hope it helps!!

      Jodyfro Gunderson I’m obsessed with the Sephora micro smoothing powder to set my face ( which is very dry). I can use soooo much of that powder and it never looks like powder. I would give that a try under your eyes. I use it for that sometimes but I’m crazy and like a powder ( like Urban Decay Velvetizer) where it actually feels smooth and silky to the touch. Which is very counterintuitive because just because it feels smooth doesn’t mean it looks it 🤦🏻‍♀️ Regardless, I swear by that Sephora micro smoothing powder for the face and I’m going to start giving it a fair shot under my eyes as well.

    When I set powder with my beauty blender I like to dampen it with a moisturizing setting spray. I think it helps to set it in place!

    • @StephanieMarie
      @StephanieMarie  7 лет назад +2

      I need to try it the way you just described. I have trouble with concealer under my eyes getting all goopy and weird before I even powder (it happens on my lids too) doesn’t matter what concealer I use. It’s even worse with eye primer (I can’t even use it). Anyway, I’ve tried spraying my damp beauty blender with my morphe setting spray to smooth it out but it seems to just break up the concealer and make it look worse. By the time I get to actually powdering my undereyes they’re already a crepe, streaky disaster. I’m def going to try your technique and see if that helps.

    Stephanie, I really loved and appreciate this video. I’m 52 and I never wear makeup on my face. I’m finding I need to do something about my dark circles. It’s been a nightmare, to say the least. Twenty year olds at makeup stores are not kind. Your video really gave me some great information and hope. Thank you so much!

  • @Kelly-el8se
    @Kelly-el8se 7 лет назад

    Stephanie, loved your video. I incorporated Wayne Goss's tip a while back of a drop or two of oil in my moisturizer...that has helped. I also love that he says less is more and so do you. I still use too much product. My next venture is to learn to color correct and to give myself a reasonable consistent bedtime. Lent is coming, so I am going to use those 40 days to reevaluate my patterns. God's peace to you for your patience and generous spirit with us. Love my RUclips family. Truly.

    Greetings Stephanie! I just found this video and I didn’t realize that I need to apply eye cream and reapply several times. I do think that is the key for me. I am 61 with super dry skin all over. I also have very dark circles and eye bags. It’s lovely! I crease most of the time and always set my under eyes with a damp beauty sponge. The next thing on my agenda is the Color Science corrector. Thank you so much for all of these wonderful tips. I just pinned it so I can refer to your video often. You’re just lovely and I appreciate your time! Have a great day!

    Applying multiple applications of under eye moisturizer, who knew?! Thanks for sharing that Wayne Gods tip! Also, at bed time after applying under eye moisturizer I add Vaseline. It really helps to lock in the moisturizer and helps plump the delicate under eye areas. Marilyn Monroe used Vaseline and Nivea for moisturizers as the intense lights on set used to dry out her skin.

    Such great tips! I apply argan oil over my face prior to moisturizer. I now add a drop of coconut oil under my eyes before starting my makeup. I will have to try adding coconut oil over my eye primer. Based on this video, I no longer put my foundation under my eyebatea and it makes a world of difference!!!!

    Thanks for the beauty blender w/ powder tip. I will have to try that! In the morning after my shower I put all my creams on, and then I put a drop or 2 or Argan oil under my eyes. I wait about 10 minutes before I blow dry my hair, then put some jojoba oil under my eyes (less than a drop), and press it in the skin with the beauty blender. I end up just swiping a tiny bit of powder to set, and it still creases a little. I will try the beauty blender and powder, it sounds like that may be the trick! Thank you!

    I had to come give an update. I'm 36 years young 😊And have horrible under eye wrinkles and dark circles. So I was so excited to watch this video when I got the notification on it. It's been almost 3 weeks I've been trying the tips and tricks you've recommended in this video. And I'm literally impressed at how much better my under eyes now look and the only thing I've been doing differently than before is prepping them with a facial oil and then coconut oil, then an Eyeshadow Primer And also not putting my foundation under the eye area.Thank you so much for helping me to still enjoy doing my makeup!!!! ❤️

    I've also found that setting with a damp beauty sponge works best for me, and it has to be just the right amount of powder. I'm definitely going to try that color science corrector, I haven't found one yet that worked well without adding a ton of texture.
    Another great video Stephanie! :)

    Girl, I am here with you! I know I can’t get rid of the wrinkles, just don’t want to look cakey and gross in the inside under corners of my eyes. So afraid to pack on powder the way you say to with the sponge but going to go for it today to see if that helps any. Thanks for this whole video! I do layered eyes creams and oils and primer under he eyes and it all helps but the powder has been frustrating. I’ve found that setting spray does helps too, it kind of melts the powder creases down a little bit.

    Hi, Stephanie! I returned to thank you again for these tips, BECAUSE after watching this video I immediately went online and bought coconut oil (I knew about people using it for hair, but had no idea that it works under eyes, too) and I must say it is a game changer for me! I couldn't imagine such a simple and cheap product can be a real game changer! I use it twice daily before applying eye cream, treatments and other stuff and my ender eyes look as hydrated, plump and fresh as maybe 15 years ago :) event it seems that puffiness reduced, too (and I didn't change any other products I use under my eyes). So now will advice it to anyone struggling with dry and textured under eyes!

    I'm a new subscriber and just want to say how helpful this & your other how-to videos are. I'm over 40 with dry skin and never used powder at all because of the fear of it looking dry & cakey. I've had success with your method on my overall face but still have problems under my eyes, even after using oil & 2 layers of moisturizer & letting them all sink in. I've found that using the tiniest amount on a brush works better for me under my eyes. But I'm thrilled I found your videos to try new methods & see what works for me. I think you have the most useful content!!! Thanks so much for sharing your tips!

    Awesome video & so good for mature under eyes!!! Great advice & I’m going to try several of these! One thing I’ve tried that works pretty well for me is using a small amount of Tarte Shape Tape, letting it set for a few minutes & then dotting on Mabelline Age Rewind which is less stiff/thick/more creamy than the Shape Tape & mildly blend with a damp beauty blender & then setting lightly with Elf setting powder. This combo seems to cover well & not crease hardly at all compared to the Shape Tape alone.

  • @sarahmunoz14
    @sarahmunoz14 7 лет назад +2

    Omg, I so agree with you. I have dry skin and really dry undereyes. I have to use an eye cream, but there really aren't any that are both moisturizing + treatment. I do bring my serums up under eyes. At night, I use the Skinceuticals AGE (honestly not sure this is worth the price) and top it with the Cerave eye cream or a drop squalane or Argan. In the morning I like the It bye bye lines serum (plumps lines, let it soak in), It bye bye cream ( because I bought it 😜), and top with an illuminating primer (helps with staying power and fill in lines more) before concealer. I can't use oil before concealer even if I let it soak in because my concealer breaks up, same with a damp sponge to apply concealer. I put concealer on with a brush and pat out excess from lines gently with my ring finger (use a sponge to blend with foundation at edges only). I do use a small denser brush to set powder, but I pat not swipe a very light amount. Unfortunately, I have come to realize that only high-end powders work for me (Chanel, La Mer). Since I don't have darkness, I don't need full coverage, but I need moisture. Anything even a little dry or matte makes my under eyes look desiccated within an hour. I hear people say too much hydrating concealer sinks in more than matte, full coverage. I think that if you have lines, it's going to sink in no matter what. I'm just trying not to highlight the lines. My favorites are the Bare minerals serum concealer and the It CC+ eye (super hydrating). I use the maybelline fit me too, but not the age rewind which I find drying. I think the worst part is when it looks fine after application, but I look in the mirror later and it's just terrible. Also, I stopped using concealer that is more than one shade lighter than my foundation. Originally, I used a lighter shade to bring my eyes forward and combat hollowness, but I realized that it actually accentuates lines and looks unnatural on my tan skin.

    I agree where eye creams are concerned. I find I get the best results using 2 ( 1 for moisture, 1 for treatment with vitamins & retinol) & sometimes adding a bit of oil. If I use a heavy cream under my eyes it makes the wrinkles worse & doesn't absorb. Makes any make up you put over it cake up immediately.

    I love the tip of applying the powder with the beauty blender. I will try that tomorrow as well as adding a drop of oil before my eye cream. I have bags under my eyes, not so much dark circle, so learned from Wayne Goss how to use concealer on the shadow under the bag to hide it better. Thanks for this great video!

    Stephanie, THANK YOU SO much for your recommendation on the colorescience 3-1 concealer. This TRULY has been a God sent product for my under eyes. After trying SO many different products, etc...this is so far the best for me. I don’t even have to set it, and yeah thats NEVER been the case for my under eyes that have wrinkles...lol. I’m not one to comment on videos, but I HAD to come back to this video and THANK YOU for this. Love your videos, thanks again! 👍🏼🤗

    These tips really do work! I have extremely dry skin and my under eyes are bad. I use a nice facial oil and moisturizer day and night and I love using eye masks that plump and hydrate. I battle being dehydrated all of the time from being chronically ill, so staying on top of my skin care helps me a ton. I also love spraying my beauty sponge with either my Caudalie grape water spray or the Tatcha Luminous Dewy Skin Mist. I’m going to try using my eye primer, thanks for these tips! Love you and your channel! 🤗

    This video was amazing & so helpful!! So nice to see someone I can relate to. Real women, real makeup issues. Watching 20 somethings slap on way too much of a product they don't need in the first place.. not helpful! lol (not that they're doing anything wrong, just does not work when you're 36!) I recently had a terrible allergic reaction to an eye product. I woke up to red itchy eyes that were almost swollen shut. A few days after it calmed down, I was left with SEVERE dry, scaly patches, both on my lids and under my eyes. It was horrible! And no matter what eye cream I put on, it did nothing. Last night I went & got the Peter Thomas Roth Water Drench Hyaluronic Cloud Hydra-Gel Eye Patches.WOW! They felt amazing on my under eyes, and they actually stayed put. Felt SO refreshing and moisturizing. When I took them off I patted in what was left of the serum, put on my night cream and by this morning, my eyes were back to normal! NO scaly, dry, peeling patches. And no irritation whatsoever. And I have very sensitive eyes. I'm going to try putting them on while I do my makeup. They stay on really well and it would be a great way to get some extra moisture on my under eyes & prevent shadow fall out. HIGHLY recommend!!
    Thanks again for taking the time to do this video. It was perfect! :)

    When I set my powder, I tap a little in the cap and pour a drop of setting spray and mix into a light paste. Then I spray a little setting spay to my beauty blender and pat it in. Works like a charm!

    Pur hydra gel lift under eye primer has been my must have go-to for a month now. It smooths out texture has a lifting effect and I only use a tiny bit of concealer over. I don’t like having to do power because I find it leaves more texture and I’m just over 40 now too. I honestly rather look more shiny than have texture anywhere so I’ve hardly ever used powder anywhere in life. In fact I usually just use good CC/ BB creams or tinted moisturizers with Spfs. I only started wearing concealer in the last few years too so I’ve been fortunate but it’s been a struggle. I actual prefer ones with luminous effects like Pur’s ( disappearing radiance ink ) or NO7 radiance glow. I like your suggestions for coconut oil though. I use it as 1 of my steps to remove mascara or cc cream a lot. Thank you again. PS. I’m Always proud to say” I was born in N’Orleans “ even though raised in upstate NY. 😍

    I have been using argon oil under my eyes for a while now. I always try to let it sit for a minute or two before applying concealer. So far the best under eye concealer I've found is the Garnier Clearly Brighter anti dark circle eye roller. It has a light-medium sheer tint which seems to be just enough for me. That said, I also like maybelline age rewind as well as Boi-ing brightening concealer. I'll have to try using coconut oil under my eyes!

    Stephanie Marie, would consider doing a video about your overall approach to beauty over 40? I really appreciate your take on skincare and makeup and it would be nice to hear your thoughts on the goals and challenges we face in our 40s. For me, it's not just about a specific technique, but more about a whole you set of challenges that my aging skin is presenting me with!

    I'm new to your channel. I've recently started using a small dab of Vaseline for my under eyes and so far looks great. I've recently purchased the Mac pallette medium mid-yellow, mid-peach, ALSO have thee painterly paint pot, I also purchased the Mac highlighter in bright forecast, and prep and prime.. concealer in 24hr Mac, and I recently stopped using foundation under my eyes as well, so I appreciate this video, so just let me know what you think about the recently added Vaseline lightly under my eyes and if you think it could work for others, that need that extra hydration. I also purchased the all day hydrating spray from mac so just a few items I did purchase to try out. Thanks 😊 for sharing 💜 💖

  • @sharonbrady4596
    @sharonbrady4596 7 лет назад

    I too use a little coconut oil after my moisturiser and before my concealer.it makes such a difference to how the concealer sits on the under eye skin. I have hugely dark under eyes and the colour of the rest of my under eye is lighter than the rest of my face and so I do pat on the tiniest bit of foundation to help it match. I don’t like my eye area lighter than my face as it just highlights my deep set dark under eyes , bags and wrinkles. Lucky me I literally have every eye concern there is. My eyes still look awful after all my efforts but it does help somewhat. Don’t know why I’m sharing all this. I think I just wanted to vent! Lol Thanks for another great video.
