Want to look like you slept eight hours when you’ve slept only four? First, ditch the dark eyeliner, which can accentuate any dark circles that you have under your eyes, and pick up a neutral taupe instead. Pastel-colored eye shadows can also make your eyes look more bloodshot, and come off as old-fashioned, so opt for neutral shades with shimmer. Also Min cautions against tweezing your eyebrows more than once a week, and advises sticking to plucking “below the natural arch.” Finally, if your eyes are puffy with exhaustion, use tea bags soaked in hot water, and then chilled in the fridge. Hold a bag under your eyes for about a minute. (Using a chilled spoon also works.)
