“Filler can pad out the
tear trough – that groove
which sets in under
your eyes,” explains Dr
Wassim Takouk, who
offers the treatment at
his private Kensington
clinic, £450. “As well as
adding volume, droplets
of filler sitting below
the skin reflect light –
so shadows are less
noticeable.” WORDS: ELLE SIXSMITH PHOTOS: GORUNWAYCelebrity and BAFTA
award-winning make-up
artist Morag Ross speaks
about the art of concealment...1 “Start by smoothing on an
eye cream then, to de-puff, take
your middle fingers in circular
motions around the eye area
to your temples, then run them
down your jaw and neck.”2 “A colour correcting primer
is key. Peach neutralises blue
and purple, pink cancels out
grey and if your circles have a
slightly brown undertone, opt
for an orange-hued one to lift.”3 “When choosing your
concealer, pick a shade
that’s slightly lighter than your
foundation. Liquid consistencies
are best for thin skin and help
plump up fine lines. Waxy
concealers are ideal for full
coverage. Apply a thin veil in
a V shape from the tear duct,
finishing at the outer corner
of the eye. Gently press the
product into the skin and apply
in layers – too much concealer
can draw attention to the area
and cause creasing.”4 “Take a fluffy brush and finish
with a light dusting of loose
powder to set the area.”Cheat sheet
