COLOUR CORRECTORS: Can They Hide My Dark Circles & Veiny Under Eyes?

[@heartmumblr]

You’re honestly so great at helping us all out without under eye issues! I don’t have dark circles but I’m lucky enough to have not only 1 set of under eye bags, I have a DOUBLE set! 😭 I am a “bag” girl so maybe it’s fitting 😂 But thanks to you Carmel, I’m better at hiding it on most days with the concealer techniques you’ve shown! You’re so talented friend! ❤

@@heartmumblr Hi beautiful! Oh I’m not sure I’m helping really, just trialling things with lots of error! 😄 Under eyes can be so confidence crushing and makeup can really help with alleviating that! You’re stunning & I can further nobody is looking at your under eyes. Lots of love and have a wonderful weekend! 💜☺️

Yes I use the Bobbi Brown Skin Corrector stick in peach and I love it 😊

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@wwfarmhouse9055 It’s a good one for sure, Sally! 😘💜

Oh my gosh, thank you so much for this video!!!! I've been wanting to try the Bobbi Brown one and I've only swatched it in the store on my hand but the color was beautiful, moisturizing and very comfortable. You've made me decide to go order it now and it's on sale everywhere since it's Black Friday😂

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@kikik9657 Oh you are so welcome! 🥰 I’m so glad that it was helpful. I would wholeheartedly recommend the Bobbi Brown, it’s lovely- and you will definitely get it discounted somewhere this weekend! Yay! 😘💜

About four years ago I learned about color correcting for the first time and it was a revelation. I haven’t been without ever since. My under eyes are getting darker with age and concealer alone leaves them grayish. So in comes the corrector. I have tried some over the years. It depends on my day and mood which one I will use. My cheapest option is the Catrice instant awake under eye brightener which is similar to the Becca and Elf one. I tried the Nyx one that you reviewed but found that to be too dry and not hydrating. At the moment I love my Huda corrector but my favorite is from Sigma Beauty the Spectrum color correcting duo. And Just recently I saw a new to me Nyx option and can’t wait to try that as well. it’s called the Pro fix stick. It also comes in concealer shades.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@hanniehoekstra8511 Hannie, WOW! You are a serious colour corrector expert 😮 Can you do a video please 😂 I’ve heard about the Catrice and I’ll definitely be trying that. I’ve actually written down all of your feedback for future reference- it’s so incredibly helpful! Thank you, lovely ☺️🩷

[@aneyedr]

Great video! The Caliray color corrector is very nice. It provides good coverage, non drying and pairs well with concealer. BTW, the new Tarte creaseless creamy concealer is amazing.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@aneyedr Oh wow, I’d only ever heard of the Tarte shape tape (which I think would be too much for me) so I’ll have to check that one out! Haven’t tried anything from Caliray, so I’ll definitely take a look 😃 Thanks so much for sharing! ☺️🩷

[@Hls707]

Second the cali-ray, although it is more liquidy it has a nice peach tone and works as a lighter coverage one and done. It is more on the luminous side imo, too.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@ Thanks Hannah! It’s great to hear multiple recommendations for the same product. I’ll definitely be taking a look ☺️

[@Ltmotley]

Hi Carmel, as you know, my under eyes are my main problem area, so this vid is appreciated. I have tried several correctors, but have had issues with them (mostly due to the extra layer of makeup like you said). But, my under eyes are so dry, that I should not blame the corrector or concealer. I tried Drmtology, NYX and others. Perhaps, I will try the Bobbi Brown one. I probably would only use a corrector occasionally too. I will try not to give up on hiding the blueish tones under my eyes as you always give me hope that I can improve the look of the area under my eyes. That is how I discovered your channel. Your videos are the best and so are you!

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@Ltmotley Ah thank you my lovely friend, I really appreciate you 😘 It’s great to hear all about your experiences with correctors. I think correctors and concealers can be super personal, but it’s great to hear about what others have tried! Thanks for sharing, Laurie 🥰💕

[@AboutFaceWithMonaBagot]

Hi Carmel, I watched this already but could not comment because I was driving. I am so into color correction. It is something I always use. I also use green for my face redness. This was a great video! I appreciate your channel so much! ❤ Mona

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Hi Mona! Oh I really appreciate you saying that, thank you so much! 💕 I can’t wait to try more correctors, they really are a game changer! 🥰

[@angelaferree2172]

I have tried several color correctors, and so far the Bobby Brown is my favorite. I think I may need to go a shade darker though.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@angelaferree2172 Hi Angela! Oh the Bobbi Brown really is fab. Choosing a shade is the trickiest part for sure. However when you get it right- it’s so effective! ☺️🩷

After trying every color corrector under the sun, I've found my absolute favorite. Pixi Beauty's Correction Concentrate in Brightening Peach is a game-changer for my under-eye hollows, with Charlotte Tilbury's being a close second.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@Sandra.Viewer Hi Sandra! Oh wow, I haven’t tried anything from Pixi yet, but it sounds like I need to! I always wondered about the Charlotte Tilbury, so it’s great to hear positive feedback. Thank you so much for sharing! 🥰🩷

[@hanniehoekstra8511]

@@CarmelNicoleBeauty I have tried the Charlotte Tilbury one. It corrects well, but my concealers won’t last when I use this.

[@kg8487]

I will order this Pixie one right now-the Charlotte Tilbury Corrector in Medium has been the best I’ve found (I have the Bobbi Brown, Chanel, Natasha, Huda, Theatre makeup, Sisley…) and is the first step for my very dark trough circles. Then I go in with Sisley concealer shade 2, which further corrects, then Natasha Concealer, then Amazing Cosmetics brightening powder to set.

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@ I’ve heard amazing things about the Sisley! You sound very knowledgeable about under eye makeup. You’ll have to let us know your experience with the Pixi ☺️🩷

[@adr12346]

I’m a recent convert to colour correctors too! I love the Chanel one in peach, but it has to be said the Natasha Denona C3 wipes out all darkness and then I go in with the super moisturising VB concealer. It’s pretty much my only combo that’s full coverage but doesn’t make me look a million years old!

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@adr12346 Hi Adriana! I’m not surprised you love the Natasha Denona at all, her concealer is one of my absolute favourites. I’m definitely intrigued by the VB concealer, it’s just the price of the puts me off 😂 Great Info, thank you so much! 🩷☺️

Hi Katelyn, just stumbled on your channel and very much loved your content so far. Especially the topic of undereye darkness and hollows girlllll we're almost twins 🙂From the 6 products you tried i've used 4 myself. I still haven't found my perfect one. The bobbi brown comes close though. I'm quite content with the Pixi peach corrector and the Becca undereye brightner. Im very curious about the NYX pro fix now. Love your make up by the way. Cheers and greetings from the Netherlands

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@misslee7331 Haha, under eye twins! I’s always reassuring when I hear I’m not the only one 😄 I’ve heard lots about the Pixi so I’m going to invest I think. Thanks for sharing & for being so kind! Much love from 🇮🇪 🇳🇱

I have been experimenting with color correctors this year. First I fell in love with the Pixi corrector, but now I find it a little dry, and the product is getting harder to dig out. I also bought the sigma duo, but I can only use one of the shades so I hit pan in just a couple of weeks.. Now I have fallen in love with the Bobbi Brown corrector in a pot. It blends and covers perfectly! The pot is very small though, so I am tempted to buy the stick version.. Do you know if there is a difference between the two, other than the packaging?

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@Heidi-bp5jw Hi Heidi! It’s always strange when we fall out of love with a product, but I think it’s because our under eyes are always changing. That skin is so thin, if even if you’re a little dehydrated- it’ll reflect there! 😩 So in terms of the Bobbi Brown pot and stick, as far as I can see the pot is more full coverage and the stick is more lightweight and buildable. And obviously the stick is seen as more convenient for use. Hope that helps! 💕☺️

[@Heidi-bp5jw]

@CarmelNicoleBeauty Thank you! This helps a lot 😊

Hi there! Yes I have a dedicated video to concealing under eye hollows! I’ve just linked it in the description box below for you ☺️ If you can’t find it there, it pops up as a suggested video 17 mins in on this video (top right hand corner) or you can scroll back through my videos to find it. Hope it helps! 🩷☺️

[@audreyso1201]

Hello Carmel, I don't use a corrector color under the concealer, I don't find much difference or maybe it's me who doesn't use it correctly and I often make mistakes regarding the concealer shades, in short a headache for me hahahha. Thank you for these explanations🤩🤩😄

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

@@audreyso1201 Hi Audrey! You are completely right, correctors and concealers are a total headache 😂 You might not even need a corrector, but if you want to dip into them, I think starting at the drugstore is a great way to go! Have a lovely lovely weekend, Audrey 😘🩷

[@majar30]

I use color corrector for 3 years now. My favourite was Ilamasqua pigment, shade Emerge. I can't find it anymore because they stoped producing it. It's a shame because I used to get a lot of quality product for 25 euros (8gr). Since then I've tried everything that I could get my hands on to substitute it and I agree that Bobby Brown is the best for us who have deep blue or purple dark circles. I also have dark blue/purple circles and under my left eye big green vein so I simpathize with you 😅

[@CarmelNicoleBeauty]

Hi Maja! ☺️ Oh wow, I haven’t tried anything from Ilamasqua in years! It’s so annoying when companies discontinue products that we love. Aw, so we’re under eye twins! 😂 The struggle is real 😄 thanks for sharing, lovely 💕
