Is there an instant way to rid my face of dark circles under my eyes? I've been using a face cream faithfully?

Question

everyday, but I still have the dark areas under my eyes, and I want to wear brown eye shadow, the brown shadow really accents the dark circles..

Answer 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. :)

First find out what is causing your dark circles--is it heredity, lack of sleep, or lack of iron?  Since the skin is so very thin under your eyes, it naturally tends to show the blueness of the veins and capillaries there.

Your best bet is a good concealer.  Neutrogena 3-in-1 concealer is very good and not chalky-looking.  Match the skin tone on the rest of your face, do not make the mistake some women do and try to use a lighter shade!  This only makes you have strange, light-colored half-moons under your eyes.

Another thing to consider is trying Nu-Peptin or Pro-Vectin eye cream; they are both made for dark circles and  I've had some good results with both of them.  You can find them online, on Ebay, or Walgreen's, etc.  

Consider getting your iron levels checked; this is often the problem.  (mine is simply lack of sleep and poor diet)

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.

Answer 4

Christine gave a good answer..you are right...brown eye shadow will really accentuate the dark shadows...try a light color on the lids..plums in a palette..cream colors but make sure as I said that you are using light on the lids..I am going to watch for some answers that you get...I personally use concealer...I tap it on the areas that are dark and then take a makeup sponge and blend...never put powder under your eyes...good luck

Answer 5

you could purchase a product tht is like a concealer

it looks like a yellowish lipstick

if tht doesnt work then the dark circles are because of your eyes they create a shadow on your cheeks
