I have dark circles/bags under my eyes. They annoy me a lot. I usually put some cover up on them but it only really gets rid of the colour, the faint lines are still there. So what can I do to get rid of the completely? I'm not allowed to go buy any products for it so it has to be home remedies.

I get 7-9 hours of sleep and I use multiple face cleansers etc.

  1. Most of it is genetic. I have them to. Just get lots of sleep, and try not be stressed to much. I also have heard that when you cry a lot under eye circles appear darker. Not sure if it's true tho. Also drink plenty of water. Getting a bit of color in your face as well as putting cold spoons under eyes may help. Get ShiSeido Benefiance Revitalizing Cream. I got mine from Macy's and just a tiny dab of it does wonders on dark circles.

    vitamin E oil,olive oil,cucumbers, & a doctor can also help. I have pretty bad ones so this is all from experience.

    Hope this helps. :)


  2. 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.



  3. Apply cold raw grated potato mixed with the juice of half lemon around the eye area. Leave on for about 20 minutes and wash off with cold milk.You can do this at least once or twice a week to see the difference. Check out http://useinfo-darkcircles.blogspot.com/ for more info.


  4. put a cold cloth under them, or cucumbers..it worked for me!

  5. The dark circles around your eyes may be due to stress, or dehydration because apparently you're getting enough sleep. Drink a lot of water, stop smoking, eat healthy, stop drinking caffeine or any caffeine-laden drinks.

    BTW, do you have asthma or any allergies? Constant rubbing of the eye area due to itchiness (that you don't even notice) can also cause darkening.  

    I agree with the application of sliced cucumber. You can also try to a cooled tea bag.
