I agree with you about using bronzer, I used a bronzer from Guerlain..it looks stunning on our face, and having a light shade it is so cakey. Thank you Rose Make Up World, that is why I love all your post videos! More viral technique!
I sometimes think you’re like a Makeup Professor. The way you explain the product use is so clear. With the demonstration with the product makes it perfect. Thank you for your teaching 🤭
@@mmmmmmmmmmm7863 i bring my blush up high so it's hitting my undereye area, (very sheered out in that area, obviously) and it's a wonderful color corrector! I'm having a VERY difficult time finding an undereye brighter/color corrector that works well for me, they're always way too orange and "dark." (by way of being too opaque and/or too saturated) My skin is very pale with cool pink undertones, and it's tricky to find a product to accommodate. I need something that's not so saturated, and is a cool-pink heavy peach that's isn't high coverage either.
@@Uhohlisa ...let's consider the context, which brings us to the conclusion that this comment was reffering to the technique of *using bronzer as a color corrector,* not the concept of color correction.
I guarantee you that it looks heavy in real life and accentuates any texture and fine lines once the makeup dries down. It doesn’t matter how good the color is when the makeup is caked on. There’s a reason why they rarely ever show you what the makeup looks like during the day in natural light and hours after they’ve done their face.
The bronzer side looks phenomenal. You did an excellent job picking the perfect colors to demonstrate your points. The highlight shade you chose for the “too light” shade is a shade many many people pick too. Another good choice for your demonstration. More people should reconsider their highlight shade now
the left side looks better because the color matches better but you can still see all the fine lines just the same. i don't think there's anything wrong with fine lines and you don't have a ton of them, i'm just not seeing a difference
Yes AND! The reason this is color theory is because under eye bags have blue undertones because of all the veins that are visible because the skin is so thin there- so using something with an orange “hue” is the opposite end of the color wheel and cancels it out. My PERSONAL favorite thing to use is a peachy-toned concealer, or just adding a peach corrector to whatever concealer I’m using. People have made the mistake of using orange or red in the past, this doesn’t work because then you’ve overcorrected. The blue in your under eye isn’t literally blue, it reads as grayish, which is why you use peach.
@@alwayspushforward the second bit? Yeah. That’s what I personally do, which is what I said. The color theory still works, it’s just with different tones. A peachy tone would read as white on a darker skinned person and wash them out entirely. It would probably appear gray, 100% wouldn’t work for a darker person.
yes but she was talking about making her eyes look smaller with the concealer. going darker vs lighter lessons the space between the eyes and the nose, and shortens the face over all. it makes eyes look larger, and the face look cuter/more youthful in general
Yes omg I just commented about this too! I've seen other people responding to the same video as well and everyone seems to be totally missing the point that she made about her eyes looking smaller, they just talk about color correction instead
I agree have you seen the color corrector on top of concealer hack then setting with pink powder ? Can you do a quick video like that, I think it's huda beauty's latest shorts lol
I recently switched to a concealer that is a perfect match for my skin rather than a couple shades lighter like i have for years. It’s made such a difference 😊
I've used this technique on my daughter who has dark circles under her eyes. I make sure that there is an under eye primer that has been set for at least 5 minutes before applying the dark bronzer concealer... Then the actual concealer over the top after that one has already set. The key is letting it sit for 5 to 10 minutes. Then you can set with a powder that you would like at the end depending on silicone /oil based primer and concealer ingredients. Sometimes you have to mess around with it on your face first before you commit 100%. I hope that helps❤
I use a dark peach corrector over my dark mommy Gucci bags then apply my regular concealer on top and it works well. Haven't tried the bronzing technique yet but I really don't think it would work on these dark circles lol I'm gonna end up looking emo.
@@kreneesimo I use a dark peach corrector as well. Now I'm curious. I still see the circles under my eyes but I'm going to try a bronzer. This is interesting.
Or a super light skin tone lol I've been a makeup artist for over 20 years and I have yet to find someone with pale skin that can do this. I don't use super light concealer like most people have done since forever haha I do have a concealer one shade lighter and one shade darker that I use for different purposes. I've also been a painter for 30 years. Color theory is one of my favorite subjects. I would never be able to use this hack unless I went tanning.
That's not what she's saying though, she says the light concealer makes her eyes look smaller. And she's right, the brightness around the eyes brings the surrounding skin forward and makes the eyes look smaller by contrast, whereas the bronzer almost kinda works as a skull contour that emphasizes the eye socket and makes the overall eye area look bigger. I notice this myself when doing makeup, when I've only put concealer under one eye it's almost jarring how much smaller that eye looks compared to the other one!
Jackie has been teaching this technique...women of color tend to do this more often. I think it's b/c of multiple shade complexions we have in that area. The bronzer balances those shades out... something about the sparkle just gives you that extra pop!
Wow, I've been putting bronzer under and around my eyes after my concealer, for a while now. I didn't knoe this was a thing, maybe I should try skipping the concealer completely.
This is by far the best makeup hack I've ever seen because as a 40 year old, most makeup trends work on young people but I've always found my eyes look better without concealer at all even if they are a little purple/blue with nothing on because concealer makes me look older. This way of concealing actually looks natural!
For concealing around the eyes, you shouldn't be using your exact skin tone or a lighter colour than that because usually that part of the face is warmer than the rest. That's why it looks off. By the way, if you want to do something about the purple/ blue, I suggest using a bit of a concealer that is a bit more orange than your skin tone. I find that works best for me, and it looks natural.
@@Allyfyn she said "because it makes me look older" and you gave hacks for everything than her listed reason it makes mature skin look older because of all the creases showing 30 seconds after it dries down, and if we laugh at something or otherwise emote in public we end up looking like the Cryptkeeper. unfortunately I haven't found a solution yet. all the "tips" I've found basically boil down to "give up on full to high-moderate coverage" and my under eye bruising is drastic so it's been finding a middle ground between Well-Rested Refreshed Cryptkeeper or Has Not Slept Once Since They Were Born But Damn, Great Skin Tone.
@@nivision If ones uses the wrong colour it can make them look older too. Also, because my skin has been dry, I also experience the effects eye wrinkles cause on concealer. You just have to put little, and none on the outside sides of your eyes.
It's beautiful that the kids are seeing our mistakes and finding new techniques. When contour concealing became popular in the mids teens make up was going through a revolution but I love seeing new make up babies figuring out their own ways. Ultimately it's fashion, but I do love seeing makeup getting more and more accurate.
@@dinonuggies145I tried it when OG girl first posted- I have hooded eyes, that kind of protrude, and I’ve never liked how eye makeup looks. This. Was. Amazing.
I always learned that under-eye concealer should be a shade (or 1/2 shade) darker than your foundation (this was from a magazine I think, lol) for exactly this reason - to cancel out and blend more naturally. I never understood the triangles of super light concealer. But I LOOOOOOVE the idea of bronzer as a color corrector!! Then your perfect concealer shade acts as a subtle brightener and I agree abt the seamless bronzer tradition. Great hack!
@@-.a9942 I disagree, it's not "supposed" to be that. This short shows why it being lighter doesn't work. That's the whole point here. But if that method works for you, then great! Lots of ppl do it like that. I learned that it should be the other way. Maybe a whole shade darker is too much, so 1/2 shade like I said. And ofc you have to blend so you don't get racoon eyes! But yeah the demo here shows why this method could work too, with bronzer as the darker shade/color corrector. Otherwise the brightening effect is too stark.
Made the mistake of using a concealer too light for me too many times in my early makeup wearing days. Glad we have RU-vid Makeup Teachers like you to show us how to look our best with makeup! ❤❤
I had the same happen to my hair I used to use a lot products to make my hair more hydrated Since I started using only shampoo, no conditioner, no masks or hair oils My hair has never been healthier I think it's the same with skin. The more products you use, the worse the skin condition is I only use nivea on my face, and I never get any pimples or whatsoever, on the other hand, my sister uses 10 different products on her face, and she always breaks out
I’ve done this for years. It especially helps make the area look more seamless, if you don’t like wearing eyeshadow or mascara under the eye, like me. If you want just a bit of light to brighten, use a tiny amount, press with finger into the skin, then use brush or blender to blend it in. KVD has an amazing gel bronzer that just melts into the skin. & concealer lays beautifully on top of it, blending the two perfectly. I actually learned this trick from being married to an abusive man… sadly.
I personally always hated the bright concealer trend and never did it. I always bought concealer to match my skin perfectly to use or I just use my foundation like normal under my eyes.
Thank you for sharing. I've been wearing a lighter concealer for many years and wasn't aware that it only enhances my fine lines. I picked up Elf's Light Peach concealer shade, and it's like night and day!!
TRY IT!!! I have hooded, slightly protruding, large eyes- this was a game changer. When OG girl posted this, I left a comment saying this changed my whole look. It’s amazing
color correcting has been around for a while, you can also buy actual color correcting pallettes out there. Bronzer will not work for everybody tho. Dark skinned people with very dark undereyes need red, if you have red discoloration you'll need green and orange will only work if you have purple colors under your eyes. So your bronzer won't cut it for everyone, but yes if you have those purple undertones, buying a bronzer, or much rather just a foundation that is a couple shades darker than your actual color will be much more wallet friendly. Great amound for a much better price, comparing to buying a tiny amount of orange color corrector.
I’ve been doing this with the ELF Halo Glow filter and it’s incredible bc light reflects off the product. I don’t even need any color corrector or concealer anymore!
I can't imagine caking so much product on my face everyday. At your age, I didn't need anything to cover my face.....and still don't. Natural is so much prettier 😻
I’m so happy at least one person said this and I’m not alone thinking it! All I saw was all the layers caked on. I mean doesn’t that feel heavy on the face? Anything past the standard liquid stuff and I’m sweating up a storm!
Ur contour should be greyish-brown (to mimic bone structure). bronzer is only to warm ur face up a little, so ur doing it correctly. ~Unless ur extremely pale? that could be why ur finding u look orange..
Same, I'm a fair cool, and I find it's so hard to find anything that works for me. I have dark under eyes and a melasma spot above my lips 😅 trying to hide it is annoying
@@alishashadows9599Depends on if your eye area is naturally lighter or darker than the rest of your face and your skintone. As someone who is pale using a bronzer would make me look like a reversed panda.
FINALLY, someone I can get on board with. Never saw the logic in using a lighter colour to act as a concealer, it does exactly as you said HIGHLIGHT what is supposed to be hidden. Thank you.
You know what else highlights fine lines and texture that are otherwise barely visible? Painting on layers of product like that so that your undereyes look like dried out frosting on a week-old cake.
Did anyone else notice how much bigger her eye looks with just the concealer? The side with bronzer, her eye looks so much smaller. I understand color correction, but that's a huge difference in the name of color correction.
This makes sense. I never loved the super concealed under eye. I’m oily and at the end of the day the only thing I would have is highlighted rings under my eyes. Im trying this tomorrow.
The bronzer under concealer is actually GENIUS because every time I wear concealer my giant under eye bags are ENHANCED!! I will be trying this technique tonight 😱
Absolutely right. I already follow this technique and have been teaching the same technique to my students. If your colour theory is clear then it will be easy for you to understand this.
