Make your dark circles disappear in a gesture thanks to this trick!

A marked and tired look, the camouflage of dark circles is for many an essential stage of beauty! In this article, we show you how to reduce them with the help of a cosmetic that was initially far from being intended for this purpose: lipstick.

The day is breaking, the night has been short and the day promises to be long: the dark circles reflected in your mirror set the tone! If the reasons for the appearance of the latter can be varied – lack of sleep, hygiene of life to be reviewed, hereditary factor … – it is often the poor blood circulation which is at the heart of the problem. Indeed, as the skin is particularly thin on the area around the eye, the accumulation of blood at this level does not go unnoticed. Fortunately, there are many tips for dealing with the problem of dark circles and the one we are talking about today was spotted on TikTok. If it wants to be particularly effective, it is simply because it does not only camouflage them, but really helps to get rid of dark circles. To test it, all you have to do is bring a very specific cosmetic, spoiler alert : it is not a concealer, but indeeda tube of lipstick !

So how can you get rid of dark circles and bags under the eyes using a simple lipstick? As you can see in the TikTok video above, the answer is simple and does not concern the color of the grape! And for good reason: it is in fact necessary to bringan empty tube of any container. To do this, you can either empty and clean a lipstick that you no longer use, or – in order to avoid waste – get yourself an already empty tube.

Once you have the right equipment at your fingertips, all you have to do is fill the tube with water before closing it and placing it in the freezer for a few hours. Thanks to this trick, you can then easily use the cold to reactivate blood circulation around the eye area and stimulate the epidermis, thus firming the skin and reducing swelling. If you do such a preparation in the evening and use this trick when you wake up, puffy and dark circles will soon be a distant memory for you!

Warning : to avoid the risk of burning yourself in contact with extreme cold, we advise you to do not use the ice cube directly on your skin, but rather to place a small cotton gauze between the two in order to benefit from the benefits of this trick, without risking any burns or other irritations. Knowing this, all you have to do now is give it a try!
