That’s where colour correcting comes in, it isn’t rocket science but there definitely is a formula.

Orange cancels out the blue which is amazing if you have prominent veins under your eyes or on your eyelids.

Peach also cancels out blue which is ideal for the rest of your face where you might have veins.

Yellow cancels out redness and works well if you are tanned or have a naturally sunkissed tint.

The purple is great for under-eye circles as it cancels out the yellow undertones and brightens up that area too. Remember to use a concealer over it for a colour perfect match.
