The third reason is hyper-pigmentation, a condition
that is passed on through genetics.
Let’s take a look at what you can do to get rid of
these dark circles under your eyes, or at least “camouflage” them.
Get plenty of rest. I know it sounds very cliché, but
you really do need your beauty sleep. Do your best to get at least 7 hours
of sleep each night.
Eat well and drink lots of water. Include plenty of
fresh fruit and vegetables, fish and lean meat. The vitamins and minerals
in healthy food will improve your complexion, give you more energy and
overall make you feel better. It will show in your eyes as well. Combine
this with drinking at least 8 glasses of water and your skin will stay
more elastic which helps with the appearance of dark circles in addition
to many other skin problems.
Black Tea bags make for a great eye remedy. The black
tea will help tighten the skin around your eyes, and it gives the eyes
themselves a nice glow. Just brew yourself a cup of black tea and then use
the teabag on your eyes. Don’t burn yourself, but put it on there as hot
as you can comfortably stand it.
Grate some potato with a cheese grater and put the
potato pieces under your eyes. Let them soak in for about 15 minutes, then
rinse with plenty of warm water.
When everything else fails, hide your dark circles
under some light concealer. Pick a shade just slightly lighter than your
makeup. Put some on your index finger and gently tap it under your eyes.
Use a sponge to smooth it out. Don’t use your fingers or the concealer
stick to rub it in. That will make the circles appear even worse.
