Beauty VIP: Rid Yourself of the Dark Circles

Happy Monday, ladies! I don't know about you but I was feeling especially tired this a.m. It doesn't help that I have naturally dark-ish circles so a tired morning is not a pretty morning for this gal! Fortunately, I have a few key make-up products to add some light to the eyes (and of course that skinny vanilla latte for that extra caffeine dose doesn't hurt either!).

One dark-circle-diminishing fave? Benefit's Lemon-Aid.

This stuff has become a g-dsend! It's nothing super new, but one more gals need to know about. It's a color-correcting eyelid primer that totally hides darkness, redness, you name it. It looks super yellow in the container, which is a perfect color to neutralize your eyes natural shades. Benefit really has some of the best products... Benetint and Bo-ing concealer are other staples in my make-up bag.

To apply: since the biggest complaint is that it can be thick (which I experienced at first), dab the littlest amount on your finger and then dab (don't rub) it in. Really, too much and you'll think it's too yellow or it can show it up in your crease line. Once on, sweep over some loose powder to set, and voila: a perfect, perky eyelid!

To buy: It's about half the price on Amazon compared to Sephora, so review there and then shop on Amazon!
