The antidote to really dark undereye circles is a combination of two concealers. Start with a pale pink concealer to correct the purple-green color of your circles. Then layer on your usual (yellow-toned) concealer. Make sure you apply concealer under each eye, up to its lash line and toward its inner corner. Use your fingers to gently pat and blend the concealer; then lock it in place with loose powder (in a yellow tone) applied with a velour puff.
5. Use three different eye liners

Black on top and black on bottom can make your eyes appear smaller. Instead, use black liner for your top lid, a lighter brown for your bottom lid, and nude liner for your water line. It'll make your eyes look wide-awake. Here, the ladies at Cosmo prove just how much a dab of nude eyeliner can help.
And make sure you're lining both lids to begin with. If you just stick to the bottom or top lids alone, you run the risk of your eyes looking smaller all over again.
6. Highlight your lids
The beauty editors at Cosmopolitan.com have a surefire way to look more reefreshed instantly — highlight all over. Two spots they suggest you never miss? Directly under your brow and in the corner of your lids. You can also use white eyeliner to outline your brows to make them pop against dull, tired skin.
