'Start by applying a moisturiser designed for the eye area to keep your skin hydrated. Next, and before you apply any concealer, it’s important to properly prime the skin to achieve a flawless, even look.'

'Use a concealer that is one or two shades lighter than your foundation as it helps lighten the darkness that appears under the eye. To prevent your make-up from looking caked, use a creamy formula that will go on easily and appear smooth on the skin. Gently press (don’t smear!) the formula into the skin – it will help make wrinkles less visible.'

'For extreme darkness I recommend a two-step process: First use a corrector to brighten the area. Apply the formula up to the lashes and in the inner most corner of your eye. Then, apply a creamy, yellow-toned concealer on top to lighten the area.'

'Finally I would suggest using a sheer loose powder to set it all in place. This also means you get long-lasting coverage.'

'For the best coverage, I would use the Corrector and Concealer kit - it truly helps eliminate under-eye darkness. The creamy corrector helps erase the green and purples tones that appear under the eye and the concealer lightens the entire area for a refreshed look. The formula’s creaminess assures quick and foolproof coverage. It’s also lightweight so it doesn’t feel or look heavy on the skin.'
