Even though we sleep eight hours, dark circles don’t always leave us alone. So, to find a fresh look, we rely on concealer. However, when you apply too much, the material sometimes ends up marking fine lines. By trying to camouflage everything, we ultimately obtain the opposite effect. What if the solution was to bring more light rather than multiplying layers?
On TikTok, a tip with Armani Beauty’s Luminous Silk Acqua is causing a sensation. The principle is very simple: apply a touch of shade 01 Halo under the eyes, before your usual concealer. The result promises a brighter look, without plaster effect. The technique is so successful that this color is already out of stock on the brand’s French website.
An Armani Beauty highlighter under the eyes: the TikTok tip that changes everything
Usually applied to the cheekbones, the Luminous Silk Acqua highlighter finds a new use here. Its shade 01 Halo, a delicately pearly white, reflects light to visually reduce shadowy areas. Its fluid texture allows you to obtain a luminous finish without thickness, unlike overly covering makeup. This is why this tip is so popular: rather than trying to completely camouflage dark circles, it relies on light to relax the eyes. And frankly, the idea is rather attractive.
A drop of highlighter, a hint of concealer: how to reproduce the trick?
To adopt this technique, start by moisturizing your eye area. Then place a tiny amount of Luminous Silk Acqua on the shadow areas and blend gently with your finger. Once the material has melted, add a very small touch of your usual concealer. Tap to maintain the glowing effect. The secret? Be light-handed, as too much product could accentuate fine lines. An easy-to-reproduce tip to find a fresh and radiant look, without multiplying layers of makeup.
Why put highlighter under the eyes before concealer?
The highlighter reflects light to make shadow areas less visible. The concealer then corrects what remains visible. This technique allows you to obtain lighter makeup, particularly interesting when the eye contour marks easily.
What shade of Armani Beauty is used in the TikTok trick?
This is shade 01 Halo from Armani Beauty Luminous Silk Acqua. Its pearly white reflection illuminates the skin without providing significant coverage. On dark skin tones, it is better to use very little to avoid a grayish effect under the concealer.
Does this tip work on very dark circles?
It can brighten the eyes, but is not always enough to camouflage very pigmented dark circles. In this case, a peach or orange corrector, chosen according to your skin tone, can help neutralize their color. The highlighter is especially useful for adding a touch of light without weighing down makeup.
