In any case, you should not try to diagnose yourself on your own - contact a specialist, take the necessary tests and take tests. When the root of the problem is identified, the doctor will prescribe adequate treatment.
What shouldn't you do?
Some people associate the appearance of edema in the orbital region with an excess of fluid in the body, despite the fact that the reason may be different. People begin to take diuretic drugs uncontrollably, which in no case should be done without a special purpose. In addition, women make the following mistakes in the decorative disguise of bags under their eyes:
- use a dark eyeliner, circling the eyes completely or drawing an "arrow" on the upper eyelid;
- do not shape the eyebrows, as a result of which they rivet attention with their sloppiness;
- very thickly stain the cilia, both upper and lower.

Makeup
To complete this stage, you will need to prepare several decorative cosmetics.
- Tone cream. And better 2: tone in tone with the skin and lighter. Choose the brand that you usually use, we will not give any recommendations here. However, make sure that both products have an airy texture that will not lump or clog pores. Further, the cream, which is tone-on-tone, is applied to the area under the eyes, after which we outline the fold outlining the "bag" with a lighter product. Gently blend the outline.
- Concealer. Helps hide blue and puffiness under the eyes. Can be used in place of light foundation. The correct tone of concealer is selected as follows. If you notice redness (for example, a capillary burst) in the orbital zone, choose a greenish product. Paint over bruises or dark circles with yellow / orange concealer. A pink tint to help transform earthy, grayish skin. To remove unhealthy yellowness, use a purple / lilac concealer. How to use it: draw a "triangle" with apex located on the orbital bone, paint over the entire area inside the outlined path. Blend gently so that no stripes remain. Apply matting powder on top.

For now, here's a quick rundown of the best concealers for bags and circles under the eyes.
- Cargo Jet Lag Concealer. It copes well with the swelling of the orbital area, and also masks the blue and vascular "stars".
- NYX Professional Makeup HD Studio Photogenic Concealer Wand. Has a wide range of colors. Well hides all the imperfections under the eyes.
- Its Skin Its Top Professional Dual Concealer Stick & Brush. 2-in-1 tool: on one end of the stick is a brush for application, on the other - the concealer itself. Perfectly shades, masks circles and bags under the eyes, and also cares for the skin, nourishing it.
- Aveda Inner Light Concealer. Large selection of shades. Copes well with hiding imperfections in the orbital zone.
- Clarins Instant Concealer. In addition to blue and puffiness under the eyes, it masks pigmentation and traces of acne.
- Maybelline The Eraser Eye. Good for even skin tone and texture.
Don't apply concealer too thickly - just one layer will be enough. Its texture is quite dense, and it can crack if abused.

Loose powder
Be sure to choose a matte finish. Any flickering particles will only accentuate the problem of eye puffiness. Gently blend the powder with a wide brush or puff. Do not get carried away: remember that it is needed to complete the make-up, make the skin matte and velvety, and not for "plastering". Choose the powder to match the skin. Use the remedy that you usually use.
