My easy peasy lemon squeezy makeup tip will hide fine lines and crepey under eyes – it’s like a ‘hydrating kamikaze’
A MAKEUP artist has given her step-by-step technique for keeping crepey under eyes at bay.
She said her cosmetic regimen is like a “hydrating kamikaze” for delicate skin and fine lines.
Kaila Gibson (@kailagibsonmua) filmed herself demonstrating her secrets for a flawless complexion in a video on TikTok.
“If you struggle with crepey under eyes, dehydrated eyes, fine lines and wrinkles, and you need some coverage,” she said.
“But you just don’t want to cake on the products because it usually accentuates all of those things we don’t want.
“I’m going to give you two tricks that you can try that will work to hydrate your under eyes, but still give you the coverage that you want,” she added.
She called her routine her “easy peasy lemon squeezy makeup tip.”
“The trick is to take an under eye balm or serum. A little bit there on your hand,” she said.
“Take a small amount of a main shade product. You don’t want anything too bright because all that’s going to do is accentuate your creepiness and your fine lines. Mix, mix,” she added.
She combined the makeup with the serum to create a tinted product.
“Going to have a little hydrating kamikaze right here. Tap that color right under my eyes,” she said.
She said while she doesn’t experience crepey under eyes just yet, the routine works for her clients.
Gibson also added an alternative method to yield similar results.
“The other thing you could do is take a balm like this lip conditioner and place it right underneath your eyes and apply your under eye color right on top,” she said.
“This is going to keep it hydrated with lots of moisture, lots of movement so it’s not going to settle into those fine lines and wrinkles and become overly dehydrated.”
The video drew in many viewers, with one commenting, “I can’t wait to try this.”
