Banish those under eye blues with the two-steps-to-pretty approach.
First, dab on a light-reflecting primer to brighten things up. It dazzles and distracts so you won't need as much concealer!

Next, grab a peach- or yellow-toned concealer. Peach wipes out blue hues and yellow cancels purple. Also, don't forget that dark circles are called circles for a reason, says Sephora Beauty Pro Vanessa Dunn. She recommends dotting concealer all the way around your eye, making sure to get your lids, edges, and that little spot between the corner of your eye and the side of your nose.

Need a little more lift? Treat your eyes to an espresso either with an eye cream containing caffeine or by pressing two cooled-down green tea bags under your eye. A little jolt of caffeine gets blood circulating, and that helps break up those big ol' bags.

Students, are we ready? Sharpen those pencil liners, and take notes: Liquid liners are best for stirring up major drama (dramatic looks, that is). They require a steady hand, but are the perfect picks for wing-tipped and cat-eyed lines. Always start with short strokes when it comes to liquid, adding is easier than removing. Cream liners are for the true artist. Mastering takes a bit of practice, but the payoff is big: the clear winner when it comes to mastering smoky eyes.

Gel liners are great for creating liquid-liner-looks without the fuss, and they're fabulous for faking big eyes since they melt right into the lash line. But when you use 'em, hurry: These pretty picks dry fast. Pencil liners are the color-ful crowd-pleasers. Blend 'em, smudge 'em, or straight-out line with 'em. The only pencil liner no no is a non-sharpened edge.

Two things a girl should never be caught without are an ultra-black eyeliner and an even-blacker mascara. Grab that makeup bag stat! and give yourself an extra coat of both.

Try this trick from Sephora Beauty Pro Gilbert Soliz and take preparation a step further by layering a dark shadow over your liner, then smudging it around your lashes for what he calls the "halo effect." We just call it, "Hello, hot stuff!" Finish with a touch of white- or pearl-colored highlighter at the corners of your eyes and along the brow bone then go knock that boy's socks off!

Step two: Grab your darkest color and line around your upper and lower lashes making sure to really smudge the line into your lashes. Step three: Finish with your lightest color. Dot that color on your brow bone, and (raccoon-eye prevention tip ahead!) add a little to the corners of your eyes, too. Follow it with a must-have application (or two!) of mascara, and you're ready, set, smoky eye!

Longer! Thicker! Fuller! Faker! The real question here is, "What do you want from your mascara?" If it's length you lust after, focus on a long-lash formula. If you're craving curl, pick one that promises a bolder bend. You want both? Then don't be afraid to layer up! Merging the effects of two or more tubes of mascara gets the green-light-go! from all of Sephora's Beauty Pros after all, they all do it, too!

You can fake great day lashes with eyelash singles just add a few to the outer corners of your eyes all the way up to the midpoint. Then get fabu-lashly fancy at night by going all the way (with your lashes, we mean!). Next up: How to glue? Sephora Beauty Pro Emily Massa says the trick is to apply glue to the lash, then wait 30 seconds for it to dry a bit till it's tacky, not slippery (precision placement made pretty!).

Tap down the fringe starting from the outside edge, where lashes should be thickest, and work your way in. Follow that sticky business with a coat of mascara (helps real lashes blend with the fauxes), and a bit of liquid liner to straighten out the edge, and voila! an instant set of fat, stacked, and black lashes!

"Play connect the dots!" says Sephora Beauty Pro Vanessa Dunn. One dot at the front of the brow, one dot at the top of the arch, and a final dot at the tail end. Then take a brow pencil and lightly shade it all in. Why dot on dots? So you can get an idea of how the end result will be shaped after all, brows are no place for practicing your freehand.

Remember: The biggest brow boo-boo you can make is drawing on too-dark arches. Keep your coloring light-handed, and always mimic brow growth. Short, hair-like strokes look better than two filled-in hunks of color hovering over your eyes.

Quick, grab a pencil! Sephora Beauty Pro Emily Massa is gonna to make this super-easy. First, hold the pencil against the side of your nose, then point the tip up towards your brow that's the brow starting line. Next, tilt the pencil a bit, so it's just covering the outside corner of your iris that's where the arch should be.

Finally, tilt the pencil all the way to the outer edge of your eye, while still keeping it anchored against your nose. See where it hits? That's where your brow needs to stop. Next, get a synthetic brush and a pot of concealer. Use the brush to cover up any little hairs you're about to tweeze. Now take a step back from the mirror and make a pretty face. Do you like what you see? Then grab your tweezers you're ready to make it official!
