I've struggled with periorbital hyperpigmentation for a while now and have been researching how to get rid of dark under-eye circles. Admittedly, when I began to wonder how to mitigate hyperpigmentation, I became flustered by the amount of information on the internet. Not only are there different theories about what causes dark circles (some studies say it's influenced by sleep, others say nutrition, and some say genetics are at play), but there are also so many suggestions for handling them that it can become overwhelming. Do I change my diet? Get a chemical peel? Buy a product? If it's the latter, how do I choose between a concealer, serum, cream, patch, or brighter? I’ve diagnosed myself with ‘celebrity beauty brand fatigue’, and I doubt I’m the only one. Amidst all the questionable namesake brands, was Rare Beauty.

There are so many different ways you can deal with dark circles, and you should choose what works based on your own skincare needs and advice from your dermatologist. In my case, I knew I wanted a simple solution. Enter Rare Beauty's under-eye brightener. Launched in December of 2022, the product has arguably become one of the buzziest beauty products of the moment, so I knew I had to try it out for myself and learn more about it. And I'm not the only one who thinks a lot of them. "I personally love using under-eye brighteners, because I don’t feel that makeup should always focus on ‘concealing,’ says makeup artist Tilly Ferrari. "Instead, we can use the power of ‘balancing’ and ‘correcting’ to reduce how much product we use but also enhance the the results. Quite often, unless you have very smooth under eyes (which let's be real, can be uncommon as we’re all humans and our faces move), it can be difficult to carry all of the products marketed at the under eye area together." I use a dot of Rare Beauty’s Under Eye Brightener under each eye and gently tap it onto my skin, around the inner corner of my eye where it’s darkest. You can use it before or after your usual concealer (the brand recommends after to reap all the brightening effects). Unless it’s a special occasion, I’ve been using it on its own as I find it’s enough. I’ve included a swatch of the Rare Beauty Positive Light Under Eye Brightener in Light/Medium below. I was never a massive Selena Gomez fan, to be honest. I felt my Disney channel days were behind me when Wizards of Waverly Place first landed on our screens and somehow – partly because I never listen to music beyond 2008 – didn't know much about her music, too.Tip: You can even apply it to the high points of your face (tops of cheekbones, brow bone, temples) as a natural highlight-think subtle brightness and glowy skin!
