Choose orange

Dark circles?

Wonder why your under-eye concealer doesn’t actually conceal those dark, blue-toned shadows? You may be using the wrong shade. To make them vanish, Zdunowski-Roeder suggests covering them with a primer the shade of their color wheel opposite—orange (for medium to dark skin tones) or peach (for fair to light skin tones). Also smart: A primer infused with vitamin B-3, like L.A. Girl Pro Prep HD Color Correcting Face Primer (Ulta.com) helps “plump” thin, transparent skin so shadows are less obvious.

To do: Dot primer under the eyes in an upside-down triangle, then blend out with a makeup sponge (this further helps shadows recede). Next, top with a light layer of concealer; blend.
