Do you have any tips for doing makeup to conceal like serious undereye bags? I have bruise-approaching baggage (and the cosmetic surgery to decrease it is well outside my price range), and whenever I try to correct/conceal, it ends up looking really caked on or cheap or weirdly smudged after about 30 minutes. Thanks!

1. Orange toned concealer, my favorite concealer is amazing cosmetics amazing concealer, it’s expensive but a little goes a REALLY long way.  I use a pure white one mixed with my amazing cosmetics concealer to get a good highlight, you can also just use a shade or two lighter than your skin tone 

2.  A really good primer, I like NYX angel veil (NYX isn’t BDS compliant just fyi) or hourglass mineral veil, to help it look less cakey and smooth everything out.

3. A tiiiiny bit of liquid highlighter like coverFX illuminating drops mixed with your concealer or a not too glittery powder highlighter to “lift” the area

I use a damp sponge and pat rather than rub my concealer, and set it with ambient lighting powder by hourglass.
