Remedies For Dark Circles

* An instant dark circles remedy is to use the correct concealer. The shade should be lighter than your foundation. If circles are very dark, choose 2 shades lighter. Great choices can be Revlon New Complexion Concealer, Estee Lauder Smoothing Skin Concealer, Cover Girl Smoothers Concealer, or Neutrogena Smoothing Skin Stick.

* Apply a good Vitamin K cream. Vita-K Solution gel or Peter Thomas Roth Power K Eye Rescue help strengthen capillary walls around the dark circles to make them less visible.

* One should go for laser treatment only if the case is chronic. Lasers can increase production of collagen thereby thickening skin to make dark circles less visible.

* Home remedies for dark circles can include the following:

1. Drink plenty of water to combat dehydration.

2. Wear at least SPF 30 sunscreen to prevent more sun damage.

3. Get enough sleep.

4. Leave cold teabags, cucumber or potato slices, or washcloths with ice cubes on eyes for 15 minutes regularly.

5. Take iron supplements if anemic, but consult your doctor first.

6. Identify the allergens and avoid them. Whether it be pollen, food, whatever, avoidance is the best solution to this. And avoid rubbing your eyes.

* Hylexin is the first dark circles eye cream developed for serious dark circles. Featured in several magazines such as Marie Claire, FashionWeekDaily, The Wall Street Journal , Star and Luck.

* One of the greatest remedies for dark circles is Arbonne's NutriMinC® RE9 Repair. It’s a corrective puffiness and dark circles eye cream that does additional benefits – firming, moisturizing and repairing the delicate tissue around the eye.

Answer 10

dark circles can be caused by factors other than lack of sleep, for example, they are often a sign of allergies especially food allergy. No harm getting it checked by your GP. Also, drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins and to help your kidneys which can be involved.

I suffer from allergies and had really bad dark circles until I discovered what my triggers were and eliminated them as much as possible from my diet. I still get very dark circles when I slip up but touche eclat is a Godsend!

Your GP can help find out if it is allergy or something else.

Answer 14

dark circles under eyes usually come from a lack of sleep, but maybe you should relax. that may help a bit. if it continues to stay there get a checkup with your physician (doctor)

Answer 15

well....i tend to get them often too, if it's genetic, all you can really do is give them a good lift. try putting 2 spoons in the freezer, and holding them under each eye until the spoon feels warm again....that will lift them. also... try a good eye lifting cream. Some beauty supply kits include this little eye mask, it's got like gel inside it.....not sure what there really used for, but i'll put that in the fridge overnight, and put that over my eyes for a while in the morning, it also has the effect that spoons have.....hope i helped.
