Dark Circle Salvation

   Dark circles: the bane of the college girl's existence.  Yesterday, I woke up with an awful case of dark circles under my eyes.  Here's how I fixed them, without going overboard on makeup:
Before :(

  1.  Wash your face and moisturize!  I recommend Bobbi Brown's eye cream, but if you're on a budget, Olay makes a good one, too (and it smells like roses!).
  2. Cover the area under your eye with concealer (I suggest Bare Minerals, so that it doesn't look cake-y).
  3. Apply foundation/powder, mascara, and any other makeup you typically wear (I use Bare Minerals and Maybelline mascara - all mascara is basically the same).  Wear two coats of mascara, to distract from your under-eyes.
  4. Add another coat of concealer, and voila!  You've hidden those dark circles.
  5. Get more sleep tonight!

After :)
