Hockey is great to see in person, doesn't translate nearly as well to television.

Absolutely! The speed just doesn't show up on the screen.

I have pale pinky skin and brown circles around my eyes. Every concealer I've tried either doesn't work, or leaves a tell-tale white ring around my eyes. The advice I've read online says yellow concealer will work, but I can't believe yellow would work on my otherwise mostly melanin-less skin. Help?

Nice dodge, Toddson.

Suzi, yay hockey yay!

I have not yet been called to report to jury duty. Two more days to go.

Thank god I work in a tech environment and haven't given a fuck about my looks in decades. I think the last time I wore makeup was some time in the '90s. I've been coasting on my genetics all my life.

If it's white, then I think the shade is too light. Would it otherwise be okay if you covered it with powder?

Otherwise, I found this:

There is much debate as to which color of concealer works best for cancelling out those unsightly circles. If your circles are more blue-tinged, use a yellow based concealer one shade lighter than your skin tone. This color masks the blue discoloration and brightens the skin. If you have more brown colored circles, then use a peach or orange based concealer.

So I think your instinct about yellow is right.

Zen, you probably want a peach based concealer. I am a big fan of NYX HD Photogenic Concealer: [link]

You would probably want the color "Light", as their paler colors are REALLY pale.

You also might want to look at the Sephora house brand "Smoothing and Brightening Concealer" in "Peach". [link]

Thanks, guys. Powder around my eyes makes me look wrinkly. I'll try the ones you suggested, Jilli.

People, argh.

That is all.

Zen, I don't know where you are located but if you want to, and have a large department store near you (e.g. Macy's) you can go to the Estee Lauder counter and ask to be foundation color matched. We have a digital tool that takes pictures of 3 different places on your face and matches it to one of our foundation colors. They will a) not pressure you into a sale b) give you a 10 day supply for free (no lie, absolutely free). They can also recommend a concealer color. That way you can see where you sit color-wise then shop where ever you want.

Ooh, nifty!
