"If you don't blend your blush right under your eyes, you're missing out."
This sentence, from a make-up tutorial that has gone viral on TikTok, is coming up repeatedly on social networks.
Many users have tried the technique of professional make-up artist and American influencer Spencer (known under the pseudonym "paintedbyspencer") to camouflage dark circles.
Her unusual method calls for an unexpected product for this area of the face: blush.

In these videos, which have accumulated millions of views on the platform, TikTokeurs follow the advice of the expert: they first place a few drops of blush under each eye, before applying their concealer on top, then blending all with your finger or a makeup brush.
Some opt for orange shades while others choose more pinkish shades depending on their complexion.
A "shock" effect
The idea of applying blush to pigmented dark circles may seem counterproductive at first sight, since adding color to this area could make them stand out even more.
However, professional makeup artists and cosmetics fans who have tried the experiment on video seem convinced.
Admittedly, orange tones are often used in concealers to neutralize dark circles that tend towards blue or green, since these shades neutralize each other.
The other advantage of this brush stroke, according to those who have tested it, is that it would give a luminous effect that awakens the eyes and enhances the complexion.
