Whether it’s from
Lifestyle, lack of sleep or genetics,
Just about all of us at some point will want to cover dark circles under our eyes to brighten up our complexion.
I know this because having worked with thousands of people with different skin tones and complexion challenges throughout my career, dark circle concealment is one of the most common concerns I hear raised and the most requested topic when it comes to natural-looking makeup advice.
Concealer alone isn’t always enough.
It takes preparation, skillful covering techniques, and the right amount of brightening,
to hide dark circles effectively, and to perfect a look that leaves your skin looking flawless - without looking like it’s taken heavy makeup application to achieve it.
“Flawless and perfect? I knew it wasn’t going to look like that. I didn’t have the products and I didn’t know what colours or brushes to use.”
But a flawless base was doable after following each step of Sarika’s formula to cover under the eyes. I realised this once I carried on and completed my makeup. Knowing what colors to use and where to put it, made the application much easier. Your face instantly looks brighter.

I’m Sarika Patel
A New Zealand-based makeup artist with over 12 years of experience working as a professional makeup artist and trainer. I’ve worked across fashion, beauty, bridal, film + TV, and editorial, and used my experience to help other aspiring artists develop skills to advance their own career in the makeup industry.
But I also know what it’s like to struggle with an uneven complexion. Dark under-eye circles is something I live with too.
So, blending my personal experience with my experience as a professional makeup artist and coach, I’ve developed my unique 3-step solution and now packaged it up to offer you access via this online workshop.
“Colour correcting would often end up looking thick with the products I was using.”
Using Sarika’s Product Cheat Sheet and Shade Finder gave me the knowledge to choose concealers that were best for my clients and didn’t look thick or cakey. Having the right colours in my makeup kit also helped build confidence with clients knowing they have been correctly matched with colours to suit their skin- honestly invaluable.

Your Investment
“I wasn’t sure if learning from an online workshop would benefit me the same way as learning with someone in person does.”
My favourite part of the course was that each step came with a condensed video tutorial so I could see things in action, and then replicate what Sarika was teaching on myself. That way I was able to practice straight away which also helped retain the information. The step-by-step instructions were easy to follow and gave me the confidence with different blending techniques, different tools and choosing shades I know will match my skin tone.
