Makeup help eyes look ill?

I suffer with really bad eye bags i think its a heritage thing because i get more than 9 hours sleep a night i drink plenty of water and ive tryed all the tips like cucumbers on your eyes and spoons out of the freezer and nothing works. But i always look so ill my eyes just so dark and i have oily skin my makeup comes of like an hour later i dont wear foundation i just put concealer on my spots and over my eyes sometimes i leave the bags dont put any concelear! I have no idea if im doing this right and how you should apply concelear to your eyes can anyone help? Also i like a natural makeup look so i just wear concealer, blusher, and mascara or any light eye shadows. I have fair skin and its oily! Do i need to be wearing a light foundation? Do i put foundation over my eyes? I just so confused wear i put the concealer near my eyes when i do it they look ill!Makeup help eyes look ill?
I feel your pain, I constantly suffer the same dark circle problems, despite lots of sleep. I also don't like foundation and find it problematic with concealers and oily skin. Some things I do to minimise these problems are:


1) Invest in a good concealer. They can be pricier, but they can really minimise the eye circles. The right colour and texture can really help - plus giving you the natural look without looking like you put on tons of foundation


2) Either with your ring finger or a concealer brush, lightly pat concealer around your dark eye circles. Don't overdo it; easier said than done, but add more IF required. Since concealers are much thicker in texture, they don't require as much layering as foundation.


3) Brush on loose powder once you've covered the area. This will reduce the oiliness and shininess, and prevent your concealer and mascara from running and making your eyebags more pronounced.


4) Try searching up on youtube etc on make up for dark eye circles - these will give you tips on where/how to cover if you still are having trouble.Makeup help eyes look ill?
My skins really oily too i just put concealer on spots to help it stay on i just wash my skin in warm water with 4 drops of tea tree essential oils this i find helps the spots and gets rid off most of the oil also the witch brand of cleanser is really good, about your eyes sorry but i have no idea what to do about that, its really just a case of trial and error.
put some tea bags on your eyes .. it gets rid of any redness and/or puffyness .. then just put some *ALMAY* concealer on and i hope it works
go and get the neutrogina face wash for oily skin it drys it up really good.
actually the same :(


got some spots at the mo :(


hope we get bettaa soon :(
I'd wear a tinted foundation if you want a natural make-up look because this will give you a more even skin tone, whilst hiding minor skin imperfections and still looking natural..





You can either use: A 'normal' sitck/cream concealer or a light reflecting concealer. They are applied to the same area.





If you have really dark circles like you said; i'd say a thicker cream concealer should be used :)





You put the concealer around your eye socket and the darkness but dont go really high up into the bottom lashes or anthing - this will just make it look worse (This is very hard to explain in writing.) Make sure you blend blend blend.





Also, using a white eyeliner or highlighter in the corners of your eyes can give a more wide awake look and less dark.





As for oily skin - use a powder tha will reduce oilyness and shine.
