How to enlarge your eyes with concealer
There are many methods to apply concealer under the eyes.

This can be a little thicker and spread out towards the nose. Then dab some more concealer next to and under the outermost point of your eye. Blend everything into your skin by gently tapping the product in with your ring finger.
