How to conceal your bags under the eyes with blush

This trend is following me on multiple social media channels, will this be the sign that I should try it? I find all trends around blush super fun and often really beautiful, but I had my doubts about this one. After seeing several TikTok videos going viral on the worldwide web, I am convinced: this is indeed beautiful and super easy. So if you have dark circles under your eyes, but can't get rid of them with just a concealer? Then combine your concealer with a liquid matte (!) blush in the colors peach, pink, or coral. The blush should really contain no glitter or shine, as that accentuates the pores and fine lines, and we don't want that. Dab the blush under your eyes and close to your tear duct, then apply your concealer and blend away. This way, the blue/grayish color under your eyes completely disappears, according to the makeup artist. It also works perfectly if you've applied eyeshadow and some powder has fallen under your eyes and you want to wipe that away. Then you can also suddenly get a dark circle under your eyes (from the eyeshadow). Use that combination subtly. Nowadays, you can also buy color correctors in shades of yellow, green, orange, and purple, but this is, in my opinion, a lot easier.

If this trend isn't quite working for you yet, check the list to see which shade you can use.
Green: corrects redness in the skin, handy for dabbing on acne or other inflamed areas that are red
Purple (lavender): neutralizes yellowish tones in the skin
Blue: ideal if your self-tanner hasn't turned out well and you look a bit orange. Blue is then your best friend to neutralize that.
Pink/peach: this can effectively camouflage the blue/grayish tones (dark shadows under, for example, your eyes). Works especially well for people with light skin.
Yellow: if the color under your eyes is more purple/red, then you can start working with yellow. Works best for people with medium or olive skin.
Orange/red: ideal for shadows under your eyes, scars, or other spots. If you have dark skin, then this is the shade you should use.
