How To Minimize the Appearance of Under-Eye Hollows and Conceal Dark Circles

Hola, mis amores!
This is a topic and video that I have been wanting to tackle for a while. I get asked about under-eye hollows as frequently as I do about under-eye darkness. I wanted to ensure I devised a routine that genuinely worked before filming a dedicated video about it.
Hope you all enjoy this video and find it helpful :)

I love that you're showing the results under different lighting

I've had raccoon eyes since I was a kid, and always got asked if I was getting enough sleep. Still struggling with my epic genetic dark circles, and now that I'm almost 40 it's rough getting anything to stay crease-free under my eyes! Love your vids, and hoping you'll have a holy grail for me :D

[@katherinefuller5267]

Same and same. I looked like a tired or sad/ scared child. And as I’ve gotten older, it’s only gotten deeper and darker. I’d look so much younger if only not for this :(

[@MeganMcDuffee]

@@katherinefuller5267 I feel ya

[@kitokkey]

i’m 29 and also always have hollows and they are quite darker than the rest of my face, and even my lid is slightly darker (which i don’t mind personnaly for the lid it’s like free eyeshadow lol). lately i’ve been using medicube age r device on my dark circles and my friend noticed that my skin looked good and my dark circles were lighter and i was like yeah i’m wearing concealer like usual and she said no like even your lids, your whole skin tone is more even ! And i’m not consistent with skincare products but i was using the device consistently for a week so I assume it’s thanks to that and there might be an « affordable » secret that actually has an effect☺️

[@fortune.]

Has anyone had actual significant positive experience using niacinimide under the eyes? I see it being talked about so much. I'm a simple gal, I grew up before all this makeup info and influencing happened, respectfully 😂 But I'd like to always improve and learn! Does that ingredient truly make a difference under the eyes regarding darkness? I ask, because the cost of under eye creams with and without that specific ingredient is what I see haha. I'll take any advice thanks!

[@katherinefuller5267]

@@fortune. I’ve had none. I’ve used a cream of one sort or another with it under my eyes for probably about 15 years now. It just keeps my purple, huge dark circles well hydrated 😂I asked my dermatologist who I’ve been seeing since 2012 if there’s anything prescription she could give me. She said she only knew of one Rx cream that had some efficacy (but very little) for the $300+ price tag. She said there’s virtually nothing out there that’s going to fix what I have going on under my eyes.

[@hopefountain5332]

I’ve been watching these videos for the last few hours (don’t judge lol) and this is the FIRST one where I actually felt like I learned something useful. THANK YOU!! From one chick to another with hardcore circles. Thank you so much!! ❤❤❤

[@resurgem]

What an amazing result! You are the only person I've seen who actually has dark hollows. Mine are considerably worse than yours because I am older, butit'ss great to see what can be done with the right products. (And skill of application, of course).

[@tamihewitt6562]

Wow, thank you Sarah! I've watched a million videos about concealing hollows, but the way you did it makes it look so easy!

[@SandraCruzLab]

Sarah I'm always so thankful for your content. Dark circles and deathly hollows club meeting called to order! I'm here for it ❤

[@ekelly1642]

I truly appreciate how you considered different lightings, this is my first time coming across your yo6u channel and i just subscribed! So excited to try this! You explanined everything so thorough yet so simple for a beginner like me, thank you so much for this!

[@midlifemom5829]

Yes i have trifecta of darkness, hollows, mature fine lines ☹️

[@user-zr8lh8fk3t]

I have seen many KZbin classes on hollows. I saw yours for the first time and it's excited me to try because it's made such an amazing difference on you. Gonna try this for sure. Thank you Sarah 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@lindatillisauthor]

I am 73 and can't wait to try this awesome trick!

[@Kindlyone777]

If you have fine lines try swapping the powder for setting spray with a brush. 1) Dab the setting spray with a brush. Let set for 30 seconds 2) color corrector 3) concealer 4) dab setting spray to seal the deal If you have fine lines skip the powder. I’ve used from drug store to very high end they all get cakey, dry and accentuate my fine lines. For me, this method works my concealer looks fresh, no settling, no touch ups for 8-12 hours. I hope this helps somebody 🌸🌸🌸

[@somabarua133]

​@@Kindlyone777 Ohh thanks for that tip. I hate powder for this exact reason

[@dreamscape405]

Agreed ❤ I haven't worn any powder on my face for over 10 yrs. I just spray with setting spray, and it works just fine. ❤🥂💃​@@Kindlyone777

[@johannareynolds8922]

Omg thank you soooo much!! This is the ONLY thing that has ever worked for me. I’ve battled “raccoon eyes” since I was a teenager (thanks to autoimmune issues and genetics). This method is the ONLY trick that has helped me at all. Bless you, Sarah!

[@deemart7397]

I’ve seen a few videos (there aren’t many) of make up for under eye hollows and you’re is the BEST! I’d love to see one on concealing jowls for us full cheek girls!

[@agds91078]

Thank you for doing this vid! Hi I’m a new friend to your channel from Kentucky, I’m now in my mind 40’s and the last few years I have been fighting stage 2 triple negative breast cancer and back on 2020-2021 I did almost a full year worth of 3 types of chemo and it caused me anemia and low blood platelets so all of that caused me to have bad dark circles. I looked so weak and sickly and when I lost all my hair lashes and brows I took a break from my own beauty KZbin channel and I’m now in remission and pray for good I want to get back to doing vids and want to look my best once again, but I’m still dealing with these dark circles. My body underwent a lot of chemo and 4 breast reconstruction surgeries so I’m guessing I’m stuck with these dark circles but thank you for helping me learn how to hide them. ❤

[@julievang2664]

I have the same eye hallow and bags problems even as a kid. Im not experienced with make up but I love the tip with the setting powder brush. Recently I tried using the beauty blender and it became so cakey I ended up washing it all off. I'm also looking forward to try the setting spray on brush before I blend. Thanks for the tips!

[@pavaninaidu89]

Wonderfully done. I also love your thought of showing us how it looks under different lightings 🙌🏻❤️ Bravo!

[@gidgitvonlarue9972]

Wow - best tutorial so far - than you so much Sarah! I don't have black circles - but bags under my eyes for sure. This all makes sense. Thank you! xx

[@merdecristofaro6118]

Thank you for viewing in different lighting. Technique is game changer!

[@aj__love5919]

Get the huda beauty corrector people 🤣♥️ like I got it because of Sarah and literally it covers my entire dark under bags!!!!! I have it in peach

[@Luciiffeerr]

It’s so good 😊

[@angeliquenavarro263]

Truth! Even before I add skin, toned, concealer, or anything to it, it looks amazing when I blended out

[@aj__love5919]

@@angeliquenavarro263 right it makes a massive difference!! I just need to lower it alittle because my eyes get smaller when I put the concealer or corrector close to the eyes😂

[@jennysheeran6407]

Wow! I am going to have to try these techniques! Such a difference.

[@cherylbonifant8609]

Great video and demo! Thanks Sarah! I will spray my concealer brush from now on. What a good tip 😊

[@MMV842]

Wow 🤩 I NEED to try this method! And I pray it works for me just like it did for you! Thank you! ❤

[@crucitasquillace5072]

Wow amazing job on hiding the dark circles. Thanks for the tips❤

[@kam.26]

Thank you for sharing this. I’m now insecure about my hollows but you have inspired me to leverage makeup. ❤🎉

Brilliant video. Great job. Thank you, Sarah. Well done. Really appreciate it.

[@TravelTipsbyLaurie]

Fantastic job and transformation!

[@r.e.t.8656]

Thank you so much ❤ I’ve had these since childhood, and don’t want to use filler … I’m hoping this will help. Thank you again ❤

[@joannsalas]

Queen!! You always do such a great job at these videos! No one explains like you and it's very much appreciated. Going to give this a try. I never used the setting spray so maybe that will help. I find that after about a half hour, my concealer is settling into my lines, and when I step outside, the lighting is different so it doesn't look as good as it did in the house. LOL

[@trinichandy3049]

Thanks for sharing this tip. I will try this step.

[@sabrinatortoradesigns]

This is magical

[@debbiejaxel9205]

Looks great, Sarah. Really appreciate your Hollos and Concealer updates! (I was wondering about those Huda color correctors. Thanks for incorporating them in your tutorial.) Yes, these hollows and darkness are dreaded - and so hard to work with. Your tips always helpful!. Keep the tips coming! :-)

[@ShofarPrincess]

Such a great job!!!!! WOW!

[@YuliBuga]

This is so comforting ❤️

[@Sealust50]

This is a good educational video for anyone who has zero wrinkles under and around their eyes. Not very educational for older, more mature women who have deeper wrinkles they have to deal with. Every bit of that concealer would immediately set right into any wrinkles you have.

[@DaytonaBleach]

Excellent! I really appreciate that you turned off the bright lights and show what it looks like in more normal conditions. ❤ thank you for the tips!

[@Darbsi]

Thanks for sharing this technique. I need this.

[@ginahamari7168]

I have had dark circles since I was 5 years old. I love to see different techniques to cover them and going to try a few of yours. I love the idea of the lighter highlighter shade. At 64 i have loads of wrinkles under the eyes as well so they have become more of a challenge. Just enough to cover but not too much to fall in wrinkles.

[@triciahon8043]

Super useful vid! Thank you.

[@amylewis7563]

Cool. Never have seen using setting spray with concealer. 😎

[@stephanierubalcaba1038]

I love your videos. I’m almost 50 and I have just given up on trying to cover up my circles 😢

[@cherylzaccone9685]

I got ten years on you and I've given up as well. I tried fillers and it was a nightmare, they ended up blowing my eyes up with lumps and I had to have it removed.

[@TaraK172]

Thank you for this video. Would you do these same steps for a minimal makeup look?

[@valeriesantos8178]

1st time seeing u, I was so impressed but then told myself, I need to see u in natural or sunlight. Thx for the surprise :D Now I have to try ur technique 😊

[@jmla29857]

Hi! Love your channel. Can you share what moisturizer you use underneath before you apply this? Or do you not moisturize the under eye are before applying this product

[@mexifrida]

Thank you, I struggle with this and have tried many correctors and concealers. Love the technique! Would you recommend the fenty concealer if we have under eye lines? I usually have a lot of creasing with some concealers.

[@glitzyeyezz5252]

Best tutorial ever

Thanks Sarah, I have the same problem as you and didn't know how to do it.
