UM, HAVE YOU SEEN MY (EYE) BAGS ANYWHERE?

BECCA UNDEREYE CORRECTOR, £21

Under Eye Corrector should be offered prescription free at your antenatal check up appointment. The bags are where we show ourselves, our truest, tiredest selves, and even my favourite, best concealer sometimes is not enough. 

I’m not saying Becca Under Eye Corrector is the ultimate solution - some bags are really wearisomely heavy - but man it is a boost. A boost and a half. 

I think the team were thinking of tired parents when they formulated this pot of wonder, because it ticks every box for me. It’s lightweight, because I don’t want to feel my makeup, plus it doesn’t settle in the creases - HUGELY important. 

The colour correcting is simple, counteract the blue tones in the shadows with red. Or in this case, subtle pink, but because its Becca (they are the masters of glow), make it pearlescent, so it radiates a gentle glow at the same time. It’s diffusing, correcting, airy, just wonderful. 

If I wear nothing but this on my face I at least look like I slept more than I did last night. Genius.
