Are you supposed to use salmon pink or yellow to correct dark, under-eye circles? I've seen people use both and I'm trying to figure out which I should use. Which is better?

Here is a color wheel. When color correcting you want to find the color and shade of your area you want to correct, in this case under the eyes, and find the exact opposite. Don't go too bright in shade or it'll over correct and turn yhat color. So if you have purple under the eye, yellow is opposite, if you have blue under the eye, use red, but only the same shade, so stick to the inner circle on this wheel, you don't want to put bright red on top of a very light shade of blue, or you'll look like your under eyes are red. I hope this makes sense!
And this is just a basic color wheel, if your under eyes are a more unique color, I'd suggest looking up color charts and wheels with a more in depth shade range so you don't go too bright or too light with what shade you choose.
