Yes, that’s right ladies and gents, there’s another use for your favorite red lip accessory.

It turns out that red lipstick is quite the concealer for those infamous racoon eyes. We hate our dark eye circles. OK. Hate is a bit harsh. We GREATLY dislike our dark eye circles. Covering our dark circles up is a pain. They never seem to want to go away, and we’ll try almost anything to make them look better.

That being said, when we recently came across this article via Buzzfeed, we couldn’t wait to give this handy trick a try.

We saw, we tested, we approve. It definitely works and since we love re-purposing our beauty products, we may start reaching for our red lipstick on a more regular basis.

AND, with Valentine’s Day right around the corner, now’s the perfect time to start slathering on that red.

Leave a comment below and let us know what you think.
