For dark circles under eyes, avoid using a general concealer, they are usually much too thick and will likely settle in lines under the eye. Instead use a highlighter or radiance stick to help diffuse the darkness and reflect light giving the sense of brightness instead of darkness.

Tip Number 4
Always prime before applying your foundation, be it powder or liquid (or any other form or combination). You want your foundation to stay put with as little sweating and caking as possible; priming is the key to all day coverage.

Tip Number 3
To get the best from your cheekbones, highlighting the areas of the face that are the strongest is a must. Apply your blush to the apple of the cheeks and just under the cheekbone. Then take either a powder highlighter or bronzer lightly above the blush to create a beautiful Hollywood jaw.

As far as brushes are conversed, it is always best to use whatever is best for you; rules are made to be broken. If it looks like it can do the job that is because it can. Personally I like to use the same brush to colour lips, apply concealer and line under and above the eye. Experiment and find out what works best for you

Tip Number 1
Play around, even if colour and shape scare you, have fun with colours you like instead of what you think will suit you. There is no need to cake it on, but you may surprise yourself with what you can get away with or even better you could find your new killer look. The best place to start is a colour palette with a choice of corresponding colours.
