“I sometimes use two different colors of pencils under the eyes.

“One that neutralizes and gets rid of any kind of extra darkness and then one that just lightens the dark circle.”

The 66-year-old makeup mogul demonstrated the hack on women of different ethnicities to reveal how flattering it looks on each skin tone.

Having prepared the skin with an eye cream, she applied The Face Pencil which costs $25 from Jones Road.

The beauty brand also sells an eye cream for $34 which has an almost perfect five-star rating from happy customers.

“Go all the way up to the lashes to get rid of any kind of redness,” Bobbi said while applying the pencil.

“My tip is also to go on the inner corner because a lot of people are dark right there and it’s good to lighten it up.

“You can either blend it with your finger or you could use the detail brush to do the same thing.

“It really is a preference of what works for you.”

Jones Road sells an eye detail brush for $22. The product description says it’s “ideal for creating intensity” as it helps to pack on pigment.

Many viewers took to the comment section amazed and asked the beauty guru to share more makeup hacks.

“Wow…nice,” one person wrote. “Amazing,” another said.

She previously recommended a moisturizing balm that can be used on cheeks, lips, and even the neck for a youthful glow.

“Miracle Balm is one and done, amazing for people over 50,” Bobbi said swabbing the product on her wrist.

“It adds moisture, luminosity, color, wakes up your complexion.

“Moisture is a game changer for people with mature skin. The right kind of shimmer mixed with moisture gives the luminosity.
