The spoons thing is my grandma's trick! When my dad lived with my grandparents before he married my mother he used to bring her spoons up from the freezer in the basement. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1039292 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 16:01:51 +0000 Elly 1039292@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow! Awesome, I am going to have to try some of these, both the color and product recommendations. Getting up at 4 am to drive to the city is wearing on me! </p> <p>I tend to wear black because I love it on me, but perhaps that is a mistake! I usually avoid blue-ey tones because I am a victim of bruise-like dark circles, but maybe I should give it a try! I will probably avoid white because my whites of my eyes and my teeth never have been white, so i tend to look a little jaundice-y. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038964 Thu, 26 Sep 2013 04:13:56 +0000 Adelfa 1038964@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>When I'm tired I like to wear basic clothes in neutral colors because I find it soothing to believe that nobody will notice me!

I sometimes put on some fake tan for the face and a good swipe of blusher. Colours to perk me up are coral, cream or emerald. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038510 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 18:13:42 +0000 Marley 1038510@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Pink toned blush, white liner on inside of bottom-eye lash, flip the ends up on the outside edges of my top-lid liner, highlighter on tops of cheek bones.&nbsp; Pink or Blue top.&nbsp; Pink toned lipstick. If I have time I put a couple of spoons in the freezer and when they are nice and cold I get them out and lay them over my eyes - it takes down the swelling and undereye bags! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038496 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 17:48:18 +0000 celia 1038496@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I usually wear a saturated teal color because it is very flattering on my skin tone.<br />Light foundation, eyeliner, mascara and blush. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038476 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 17:08:47 +0000 Anonymous 1038476@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I wear something comfortable in&nbsp;one of my favorite colors--usually purple or turquoise. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038447 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:49:39 +0000 Anonymous 1038447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Saturated red, orange, or purple! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038442 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:42:43 +0000 Diana 1038442@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Either a very saturated jewel tone ... or black.&nbsp; Basically saturated tones (and black is as saturated as it gets) are best for my coloring and play well with my hair.&nbsp; And, well, if that won't hide the fact that I look tired, pale, or drawn, well then at least I can go for the starving-artist-in-black look, right?&nbsp; There is a certain drama in that.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038437 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:39:27 +0000 Mo 1038437@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting question. &nbsp;I'm not sure I've ever thought of 'pick me up' colors when looking tired. &nbsp;I figure I just look tired [shrug]. &nbsp;Now, if I don't physically feel well, it's all about comfort and no binding or digging anywhere of the clothing. </p> <p></p> <p>EDIT: I missed the makeup part. &nbsp;I bought some under eye cream to de puff for after those late nights, ahem, but it doesn't really work. &nbsp;I just end up&nbsp;using my regular daily eye cream lol. &nbsp;Ditto any under eye brightener or concealers. &nbsp;They look like a dead grey on me - terrible. &nbsp;Worse than the bags or dark circles on their own. &nbsp;maybe I just don't know what the hell I'm doing. &nbsp;Very likely. &nbsp;Yes, I'm sure that's it :)</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038436 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:39:22 +0000 catgirl 1038436@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I use this highlighter on my cheekbones and around my eyes. It works wonders in making me look awake.

Often, a jersey maxi with a fluid fit button-front (Portofino from Express is my current favourite) belted over it. Nothing is touching, but I look pulled together. </p> <p>I also will chuck on a whiff of white eyeliner at the center of my eyes to brighten me up a bit and maybe a spot of blush to perk up my colour overall. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038429 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:34:57 +0000 kkards 1038429@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>what do i wear, or what should i wear?<br />i'll be honest, when i'm tired, i want easy...which usualy means i wear something that is pretty&nbsp;<span>monochromatic, because then i don't have to think. lots of times its basic navy on navy, or black and white. before ylf, it would have been black on black...so at least i'm made some progress. <br />what i should wear is something bright and peppy,&nbsp;becuase the colors make me look better. &nbsp;</span> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038423 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:32:35 +0000 Cindy 1038423@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If I have to go out when I'm not feeling quite up to par I'll wear something comfortable and put on a bright lipstick. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038421 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:31:29 +0000 AviaMariah 1038421@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>A bright blue or pink&nbsp;is a given for me. &nbsp;But in the winter my go to is &nbsp;a black sweater/t-neck. &nbsp;Now I don't know if this is because it looks good on me or if it's just easy! &nbsp;One my my goals this winter is to figure out if I should be wearing as much black as I do and to break the habit if it's not something I should be wearing. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038417 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:28:42 +0000 DeclawedJaguar 1038417@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If I look and feel tired, I find it's best for me to go easy on the make-up: just some mineral powder and mascara to bring out the eyes and even out the complexion.</p> <p>As far as clothes, I go for jewel tones, as they always brighten my skin and make me look more alive, IYKWIM. Most importantly, the clothes must have a fuss factor of zero - I do not want to be adjusting and fixing my outfit all day long if I'm tired. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/what-do-you-wearuse-when-you-look-tired#post-1038414 Wed, 25 Sep 2013 16:25:06 +0000 Elly 1038414@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It seems like a lot of us have been discovering personal flattery insights, or color theory. </p> <p>So, I thought I would ask?</p> <p>What makes you glow? What do you wear when your looking or feeling tired?</p> <p>What about makeup or products? </p>
