Hi guys! So I have a problem, I'm awfully pale and have bad undereye circels, which causes me to look like I've been dead for two weeks everyday. People keep asking me if I'm sick, it is so annoying! I love makeup, and wear undereye concealer everyday, but that doesn't help. Can you guys recommend make-up (and especially eye make-up) that would make me look healthy and not dead? :) ps. Would a darker haircolor help?

I darker hair color will probably make you more washed out. Something golden/warm toned might help.
As for eye makeup, highlighting your inner eye corner will help as will lining your waterline with nude. Both will open up the eye making them seem bigger and less tired. Also you could try pressing a cold washcloth on them in the mornings to reduce puffiness. :) I'm super pale as well, and my favorite concealer is Nars Radiant Creamy Concealer in Chantilly.

If the eye circles are the main problem I would suggest using a color corrector underneath the concealer which will counteract and neutralize the darkness underneath.

I use corals and peaches to warm up my skin and browns on my eyes :) I can't help with the undereye concealer because I haven't found a decent one pale enough yet
