Pt. 3: Tips to Look Like a Celebrity - Even if Your Budget Says '2 Broke Girls'

All week we're sharing tips to look like a celebrity - even if your budget says 2 Broke Girls!  We reveal secrets in my interviews with celeb beauty expert Dana Waldie of A Makeover Muse.

Part 3:  Dark undereye circles - can a potato really help reduce the look of them?  PLUS an offer from beauty retailer Sindulge!

Shay:  We have a question on my Facebook page about dark undereye circles.  Susan Wimmer says, "No amount or type of concealer seems to hide.  Hate looking like a raccoon - help!" 

Dana:  Undereye circles are genetic for the most part, people are born with that.  Obviously things like lack of sleep and other environmental factors are issues. 

Shay:  You said this is one of the most common questions you get for both men and women.  What are some things that can help?

Dana:  Products that contain vitamin K are really beneficial.  Dr. Dennis Gross has a great undereye cream (it is pricier).  And I learned from one of my mentors, a Russian skincare guru, that you can boil a potato, cut it in half and put that on your eyes in the morning and it helps get rid of dark circles.

Shay:  Does it work?  I'd be tempted to try that.

Dana:  I've had clients and friends who have tested it and said they've noticed a result.  Don't look for instant gratification, it's something you could do daily in combination with using eye cream. 

Also, beauty products containing caffeine help stimulation.  It's an anti-oxidant that helps with blood flow and circulation so anything with caffeine and vitamin K are phenomenal with dark circles. 

Dana has a blog post with more ideas to help. And if you want to know how to get that celebrity glow, click here to read part 2 of our '2 Broke Girls' series.
