How To Get Rid Of Dark Circles Under The Eyes Articles | Remedy

By: Richard Bleuze

Bags or dark circles under the eyes affects just about everybody at some time or another. While these conditions are occasionally symptomatic of other illnesses, the usual cause is allergies, tiredness, or, unfortunately, heredity. No matter what the cause, you can still reduce the appearance of  dark circles, and in some cases, you may be able to get rid of them altogether.

Below are some simple remedies that may help to diminish the appearance of dark circles and prevent them from worsening.

The first thing to find out is does the problem run in the family.  Dark circles in particular are believed to frequently be hereditary. This doesn’t mean that you can’t do anything about the conditions, but you should be prepared for minimal success actually trying to get rid of them.

The second thing to do is find out if you have any allergies. Allergies may be the most common cause of skin discoloration and puffiness under the eyes. If allergies are the root of your problem, you simply need to treat the allergy or remove the allergen.

A third problem is lack of sleep and fatigue which may cause paleness of skin. Pale skin makes blood vessels to appear prominently and give an appearance of dark circles.

Of course a healthy diet consisting of fresh fruits, and green vegetables which are rich in fiber.  In addition, drink plenty of water.

Women may consider using an eye cream containing vitamin K and retinol.

Cosmetic Cotton Wool Soaked in Milk or Witch Hazel
Easier to obtain, milk is the quickest option to make dark under eye circles less apparent. Soak squares of cotton wool in a cup of (not too cold!) milk and place the squares on the closed eyes and around the eyes for at least ten minutes.

Chilled Cucumber Slices
Leaving thin slices of cucumber on the dark ring under the eye will make the dark area virtually disappear. Leave on for at least ten minutes.

Cooled Chamomile Tea Bags
A used chamomile teabag, cooled down, must be placed on the dark circle area. Leaving this treatment on for at least 20 minutes will help make dark circles under eyes disappear.

Natural remedies are often just as effective as expensive face or eye creams. The effect will be the same if applied regularly but even thought dark circles eyes can even be hereditary, the diet and sleep pattern are usually to blame for this problem.
