I don't know, if anybody could help me. But I have a black eye and was wondering how to cover it without it looking cakey. Is there any skin corrector I should apply first? And what should I use full thick concealer or light cocealer? I can't do anything dramatic, such as a smokey eye. I just need to cover it up for work that's all ☺️
Any information is greatly appreciated.

I also had a black eye about 2 weeks ago haha! I just used my regular routine but put a second layer of foundation over it to help cover it, it wasn't all the way covered but not "visible" either :)

You need to counteract the purple with a yellow or orange corrector. Then you can use a regular concealer. Hope it goes away fast!
