I lost 200 lbs but gained dark eye circles – they’re my biggest insecurity, I swear by a $30 product to hide them
A MAKEUP guru has revealed her trick for hiding dark undereye circles without using concealer.
She confessed to feeling insecure about the dark areas of her skin as she demonstrated the hack she swears by.
Stephanie (@glamzilla) boasts over 2.1 million followers on TikTok, where she shares beauty tips.
She brought attention to her dark circles before applying a product that creates the illusion of an even skin tone.
“I lost 200lbs but I gained these dark circles and I hate them,” she said.
“They are my biggest insecurity but lucky for you I’ve perfected my color-correcting routine so let me show you.”
She used Huda Beauty Faux Filter Color Corrector in the shade pink pomelo, which is available from the brand’s website for $30.
It has a perfect five-star rating and hundreds of glowing reviews from happy customers.
The beauty guru applied the product to one side of her face for comparison.
She placed three spots under her eyes, a line above her eyelid, as well as to the dark corners of her nose and mouth.
Stephanie then used a small makeup brush from Sephora to blend the product into her skin before applying any foundation.
“You can see the instant transformation like it really color corrects,” she said.
She then applied foundation from Fenty Beauty over her entire face to show the difference the color corrector makes.
The left side of her face which had the Huda Beauty product was visibly brighter and her skin seemed to have no discoloration.
“On the other side, I haven’t applied any color corrector and you can see how big of a difference this formula makes,” she said.
“I swear by it.”
“Orange/ salmon correctors are best used to correct darkness and hyperpigmentation,” she added.
Over 472,000 people liked the video and thousands of viewers took to the comment section impressed by the makeup tutorial.
“The way I’ve had my eye on this and now I’m convinced I need it,” one person wrote.
“Super pigmented & creamy,” Stephanie replied.
“So you mean I don’t need to cake on the color concealer [crying] should be getting a color corrector or both?” another person asked.
“You could use a corrector + concealer or just the corrector + foundation,” Stephanie said.
