Dark Circles


Hello everybody, how has your day been? Well mine was pretty good, except I noticed something odd. School has been keeping me up until the wee morning hours finishing projects, studying, blah blah blah. All of that determination and lack of sleep is finally over, but it has left me with dark circles and blemished skin. When I do not get enough sleep, my skin gets unpredictable and dark circles form. Well, don't get me wrong, I already had dark circles, but they were not noticeable. Dark circles are common, most of us are naturally "gifted" ( what a gift) with them. There are many creams and serums that can "get rid of" these harmless skin issues, but a few simple tips can help to reduce the appearance of them. Dark circles can appear due to many health and environmental factors, such as age, sleep deprivation, bruising, rubbing the eyes, genetics and even seasonal allergies. Often times, a change of diet, medication or even just leaving your eyes alone can banish dark circles for your face, or at least make them less noticeable.Now that the problem is solved , I can give you four tips that may help you diminish the appearance of these guys. Let's start!

Makeup For Glasses

Welcome back, how has the week been for all of you? I hope it went well. I’ve decided to put up two posts today, so look out for the next one ^_^ The posts on my blog have been coming out every few days due to the fact that I’ve been rushing round everywhere. Well, on to today’s post!
Some people that wear glasses think that they have to go bare-faced when wearing their specs. Well, the truth is that you can still wear glasses and wear makeup, it’s a no-brainer. I know that it can be difficult wearing makeup with glasses, because of the lens glare, smooshed eyelashes, and any other issues. However, a few tricks can be applied to bypass these problems. With glasses, any look can be modified, but do not think that this tutorial is the only way. Experiment 
 until you discover the right looks for yourself.

I decided to make my second makeup demonstration for the bespectacled, but these looks can be achieved for those who do not wear glasses. The amount of makeup being applied would have to be reduced, in order to allow for the looks to work. I put more eye makeup on because my glasses do not have a non-reflective coating, so it is harder to notice the pigments with the glare. If you happen to have a non-reflective coating or even something remotely similar to Crizal lenses, you can use a less amount of eye products, as it will show up slightly better. Now, put on those specs and get moving!

 


Step One : To start, apply a good concealer underneath your eyes, and set it with powder. This is a good step to take, as glasses usually cast dark shadows under the eyes, though dark circles are not present.
