Bags Under the Eyes
There is lots of reasons why we wake up with bags under our eyes and at a later date, I will go into some of them. But this morning I thought that I would let you in on a little secret.
1.Don’t try to cover the bags with a light colored concealer. Most of the time it just draws more attention to the area. Choose a color that is a wee bit darker than the skin tone and then apply with a tapping motion with a very light finger.
2. Next comes your blush. I find that if I add a dusting of color to my cheeks, it pulls the attention down to my “fabulous” cheekbones and not the bags under my eyes.
I just can’t give enough credit to what blush can do and here is one more secret. I find that if I mix a little rose with a little peach… I have the perfect blush color. It’s all about looking natural and these two colors work for me. If you do nothing else today, go and play with your makeup!

Hi…great tips, and I also find that at our age, foundation is a bit too overwhelming. A tinted moisterizer is plenty…let me know what you think?
