Answer 1

Skin under the eye is very thin. When blood passes through the large veins close to the surface of the skin it can produce a bluish tint. The more transparent your skin the darker the circles appear. Also if you are exposed to the sun, even in people with darker skin, exposure to sunlight, especially during the summer months, can cause a higher-than-normal level of skin pigmentation (melanin) under the eyes. The same principle applies to the skin under the eyes. Also lack of a balanced diet, the lack of nutrients in the diet can contribute to the discoloration of the area under the eyes. And also fatigue and lack of sleep eventhough i understand we cannot always sleep a lot, but this is a fact, lack of sleep or excessive tiredness can cause paleness of the skin, which again allows the blood underneath the skin to become more visible and appear darker. The skin can also become paler during pregnancy and menstruation, which again allows the underlying veins under the eyes to become more visible. If you have a tendency to have dark circles under your eyes, as you grow older, they are likely to become more noticeable and permanent. The thinning of skin under the eyes will also make dark circles more pronounced. Puffiness or fullness of the skin under the eyes can be due to a number of causes. If mild, these changes are usually temporary and don't require medical treatment. Causes may include changes in your body's fluid balance such as due to weather changes, travel or hormone fluctuations. If itching or redness accompanies the puffiness, it may be due to an allergy. I use and love Arbonne's NutriMinC® RE9 REpair, Corrective Eye Crème, (i buy it online at: http://arbonnepuertoricomyarbonne.comunder shop online) you will enjoy immediate visibly firming and moisturizing benefits. This formula moisturizes the delicate skin around the eyes and reduces the appearance of dark circles and puffiness. the best thing is that they are formulatted with botanical principles and formulatted without mineral oil, animal prooducts or fragrances which all these ingredients are very harmfull for our skin.. Mineral oil is the 2nd worse thing we could do to our skins health for it is like rubbing car oil on our skin and exposing ourselfes to the sun, animal products come from dead animals and these come from rendering plants these plants pick all dead animal and dead animal parts (from meat houses, etc.) and they put it in a huge pot, squash everything and boils it, what ever comes to the top is the oil other companies use to elaborate thier products, gross I know...the lipstick... ewww anyway, that is why i use botanically based products which is way much better because they get absorbed and the nutrients inside the products is what helps our skin look and feel healthy...they are not sold in stores but it is a great way to buy becasue they have this money back guarantee if for some reason there is something you do not like from the products you get your money back guarantee (within 45 days from purchase) so you have nothing to loose, only the dark circles;).... I know the info is too much but hope this is helpfull!!!

This will help you. At the bottom is a recommadation.


The Right Formulation
Decide on what you want your eye cream to do. There are creams that will smooth fine lines, minimize dark circles and even reduce puffiness. You will even find eye creams especially formulated for dry or sensitive skin. And then there are the creams that attack all of those problems at once. There are a lot of choices on the market.

Texture
A good eye cream must be light weight and glide on easily. If the cream cannot be "tapped" on, avoid the product. A heavy eye cream can also make the skin puff up or even block your pores.

Gels vs Creams vs Serums
When choosing between a cooling gel, a cream, or a serum, there is just one rule of thumb to remember. At the moment, a rich eye cream offers better moisturising benefits but the choice is yours.

Sampling
Eye creams can cost you a lot of money. So before deciding on a specific brand, visit the cosmetic counters and speak to the reps. There are lots of samples available and it is the best way to find the perfect cream for your skin.

Answer 3

First you need to determine what is causing the dark circles. If it is lack of sleep then more rest would help. But for a product that helps cover your dark circles I would recommend a product from Liquidity International called Hydrating Toner or Ageless Lift or Ageless Serum. Each product has different effects on different people. If you would like to know more information check out my web http://liquidity.myvoffice.com/phxcashmom/ page or send me email.

try this home remedy which i found very effective

use cucumber peels over the eyes for 15 -30 min. Get sufficient sleep and drink lots of water. Water will also help your overall skin appearance.

Answer 5

Eyecon from income is large, yet do no longer anticipate any miracles from it. i might use that besides to a solid concealer, inclusive of boi-ing from income to do away with dark circles.

Answer 6

Try Hylexin. Macy's may carry it.
