Dark Circle Camouflage Course

Lesson 1 • Mixed and Complex Presentations

Addresses cases where pigment, vascular, and structural causes overlap. Prepares learners to assess and prioritise correction layers.

Lesson 2 • Vascular and Structural Causes

Identifies blue-purple discoloration from visible vessels and shadowing from hollows or tear troughs. Distinguishes these from pigment-based causes.

Lesson 3 • Pigmentation-Based Dark Circles

Examines melanin overproduction, post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and genetic pigmentation. Links cause to the specific colour correction needed.

Lesson 1 • Colour Layering Logic

Explains how corrector, concealer, and setting layers interact optically. Builds the sequencing logic used throughout all application chapters.

Lesson 2 • Fundamentals of Colour Theory

Introduces hue, value, saturation, and complementary colour relationships. Provides the theoretical foundation for all corrector selection decisions.

Lesson 3 • Corrector Colours and Their Functions

Maps peach, orange, red, yellow, and lavender correctors to specific discoloration types. Connects each corrector hue to the cause identified in Chapter 1.

Lesson 1 • Setting Products for Longevity

Covers loose powders, baking techniques, and setting sprays that extend wear without creasing. Addresses the unique challenge of the orbital movement zone.

Lesson 2 • Corrector Product Formulas

Compares cream, liquid, stick, and balm corrector formulas by pigment density and blendability. Establishes selection criteria based on coverage need.

Lesson 3 • Ingredient Awareness and Safety

Identifies key beneficial ingredients and common irritants found in periorbital products. Supports safe product selection for all client profiles.

Lesson 4 • Skin Type and Product Pairing

Matches product formulas to dry, oily, combination, sensitive, and mature skin types. Prevents common product-skin incompatibility errors.

Lesson 1 • Tool Hygiene and Maintenance

Details cleaning schedules, sanitisation methods, and storage practices for all applicators. Prevents cross-contamination and product degradation.

Lesson 2 • Sponges and Blending Tools

Examines damp sponges, micro sponges, and silicone applicators for seamless blending. Addresses how moisture level changes product finish.

Lesson 3 • Brush Types for Under-Eye Work

Covers flat, dome, pencil, and fan brushes suited to the orbital area. Explains how bristle density and shape affect product deposit and blending.

Lesson 1 • Real-Time Correction and Touch-Ups

Covers mid-session and on-set touch-up methods that refresh coverage without disturbing layers. Builds professional efficiency under time pressure.

Lesson 2 • Setting and Finishing the Look

Applies powder and setting spray to lock coverage and control shine. Finalises the look with techniques that preserve natural skin texture.

Lesson 3 • Skin Preparation and Priming

Covers cleansing, moisturising, and priming the under-eye zone before product application. Proper prep directly determines product adhesion and longevity.

Lesson 4 • Concealer Application and Coverage

Demonstrates layering concealer over the corrector for full, natural-looking coverage. Addresses common mistakes like over-application and patchiness.

Lesson 1 • Deep and Rich Skin Tones

Focuses on intense hyperpigmentation and the need for high-pigment orange correctors. Prevents the common errors of ashiness and insufficient coverage.

Lesson 2 • Fair and Light Skin Tones

Addresses the blue-purple dominance common in fair skin and the risk of over-correction. Teaches peach and salmon corrector use with light-coverage concealers.

Lesson 3 • Undertone Variations Within Tones

Refines technique for cool, warm, and neutral undertones within each depth category. Ensures precise corrector matching beyond basic depth grouping.

Lesson 1 • Fine Lines and Crepey Texture

Covers product and technique adjustments that prevent settling into fine lines. Prioritises hydration, light formulas, and minimal powder use.

Lesson 2 • Camouflage Over Puffiness and Bags

Addresses how orbital puffiness creates shadow that mimics dark circles and requires contouring. Teaches light-and-shadow correction alongside colour correction.

Lesson 3 • Post-Procedure and Sensitive Skin

Adapts camouflage for skin recovering from peels, fillers, or laser treatments. Emphasises gentle application and fragrance-free, non-comedogenic products.

Lesson 4 • Extreme Discoloration and Scarring
