The Ultimate Guide to Crease-Proof Under-Eyes: ZenaMakeup’s Secret Sauce
Alright, let’s get down to business! Follow these steps, and you’ll be rocking a flawless, crease-free under-eye area in no time.
1. Skincare is Key: Prep, Prime, and Protect
Think of your skin as the canvas for your masterpiece. A smooth, hydrated canvas is essential for a flawless finish.
- Cleanse: Start with a gentle cleanser to remove any dirt, oil, or makeup residue. We recommend ZenaMakeup’s Gentle Foaming Cleanser for a clean and refreshed base.
- Hydrate: This is where the magic happens. Apply a lightweight, hydrating eye cream to plump up the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines. ZenaMakeup’s Revitalizing Eye Cream, enriched with peptides and antioxidants, is our go-to for this step. Pat it gently into the skin using your ring finger.
- Prime: A good primer creates a smooth surface for your foundation to grip onto, preventing it from settling into creases. Use ZenaMakeup’s Smoothing Primer and just dab a small amount under the eye.

2. Application: Less is More, My Friend
When it comes to foundation under the eyes, less is definitely more. Overloading the area with product is a surefire way to create creases.
- Apply Sparingly: Using ZenaMakeup’s Flawless Foundation Stick, gently swipe a small amount under your eyes in a triangular shape, starting from the inner corner and extending towards the outer corner. Remember, you can always build up coverage if needed.
- Blend, Blend, Blend: Use a damp beauty sponge or a soft, fluffy brush to blend the foundation seamlessly into your skin. Focus on tapping and pressing the product into the skin rather than rubbing, as rubbing can disrupt the primer and cause creasing. Make sure to blend well into the surrounding skin to avoid harsh lines.
- Targeted Coverage: If you have dark circles or discoloration, focus the foundation on those areas and blend outwards. Avoid applying too much product directly under the lash line, as this is a common area for creasing.

3. Setting the Stage: Powder Power
Setting your foundation with powder is crucial for preventing creasing. However, the type of powder and the application technique are key.
- Choose Wisely: Opt for a finely milled, translucent setting powder. Avoid heavy or cakey powders, as they can accentuate fine lines and wrinkles. ZenaMakeup’s Invisible Setting Powder is a perfect choice, as it’s lightweight, blurring, and sets makeup without adding texture.
- Bake (Optional): If you want extra long-lasting wear, you can try "baking" your under-eye area. Apply a generous amount of setting powder to the area, let it sit for 5-10 minutes, and then dust away the excess with a fluffy brush. This technique allows the powder to absorb excess oil and set the foundation in place.
- Dust, Don’t Drag: Use a small, fluffy brush to lightly dust the setting powder over your under-eye area. Avoid dragging the brush, as this can disrupt the foundation and cause creasing. Focus on pressing the powder into the skin to set it in place.

4. Refresh and Rehydrate: The Mid-Day Miracle

Even with the best techniques, your under-eye area can still become dry throughout the day, leading to creasing. Here’s how to combat that:
- Blot, Don’t Rub: If you notice any shine or excess oil, blot your under-eye area with a blotting paper. Avoid rubbing, as this can disrupt your makeup.
- Hydrate with a Mist: A hydrating facial mist can help to refresh your skin and prevent your foundation from drying out. ZenaMakeup’s Hydrating Facial Mist, infused with hyaluronic acid and aloe vera, is perfect for this.
- Touch Up with Powder (If Needed): If you notice any creasing, gently pat the area with a damp beauty sponge to smooth out the lines. Then, lightly dust with setting powder to set the foundation in place.

5. Pro Tips and Tricks: Level Up Your Game
Here are a few extra tips and tricks to help you achieve the ultimate crease-free under-eye area:
- Color Correct: If you have dark circles, use a color corrector before applying your foundation. Peach or orange tones can neutralize blue or purple undertones, creating a more even base.
- Use a Setting Spray: A setting spray can help to lock in your makeup and prevent it from moving throughout the day. ZenaMakeup’s Long-Lasting Setting Spray is a great choice, as it’s lightweight, hydrating, and keeps your makeup looking fresh for hours.
- Avoid Heavy Concealers: While concealers can provide extra coverage, heavy formulas can often lead to creasing. Stick to lightweight, buildable formulas like ZenaMakeup’s Flawless Foundation Stick for the best results.
- Practice Makes Perfect: Don’t be discouraged if you don’t get it right away. Experiment with different products and techniques until you find what works best for you.
