dark circles around eyes?

Question

i had had dark circles around my eyes ever since i was a baby. No one really knew the reason why.

No, it's not heritage neither.

What is a QUICK homemade remedy i can try (that doesnt involve cucumbers) that will get rid of these circles for good?

Or, what product can I get at probably my local walgreens to get rid of it?

I do not want to use makeup, nor a concealer...

Answer 1

Someone suggested to me (because I have the same problem) to put two spoons in your freezer and then when they are super cold, you put them on your dark circles (directly under the eyes) for about 20 minutes or until the cold is gone. This i think only helps temporary and there isn't really anything that can make them go away for good. This helped mine a little, but one day i noticed that that night i had gotten 10+ hrs of sleep and i had none the next day verses my 7hrs of sleep where they are very dark. That might not be able to go away if you have had them since you were a baby, because they could be permanent and be something that could not go away and that you are born with. If that is the case, then you will have to use make up to hid them even though you don't want to and they probably won't go away.

Good luck and i hope that helps.

There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.

If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:
Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water & stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath & let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K & Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.
