Press a spoon under your eyes before foundation and watch what happens to your whole face

The DIY makeup project aims to achieve a lifted and refreshed under-eye appearance using a simple cold spoon pressing technique. This method temporarily tightens and smooths the under-eye area, reducing puffiness and creating a more awake look. By incorporating this step before applying foundation, you can enhance the overall smoothness and evenness of your makeup finish, giving your face a more youthful and rested appearance.

Use this DIY technique as part of your morning skincare routine before applying makeup. It is particularly effective for daytime looks where a fresh, lifted appearance is desired. Pair it with a hydrating under-eye concealer and a lightweight foundation to maintain the smooth, lifted effect throughout the day. The overall aesthetic is natural and polished, ideal for work or casual outings.

2 chilled silver metal spoons

1. Place the silver metal spoons in the refrigerator for at least 15 minutes to chill them.

2. Once chilled, gently press the curved side of one spoon against the under-eye area, starting from the inner corner and moving towards the outer corner. Hold for 30 seconds.

3. Repeat the process with the second spoon on the other under-eye area.

4. After removing the spoons, gently pat the under-eye area with a clean towel to absorb any moisture.

5. Proceed with your usual makeup routine, starting with foundation.

For an enhanced cooling effect, try placing the spoons in the freezer for a shorter period (around 5 minutes) instead of the refrigerator. If you have sensitive skin, you can wrap the spoons in a thin cloth to soften the cold sensation. Additionally, using a lightweight eye serum before applying the spoon can further hydrate the area and improve the smoothing effect.
