3 HOME REMEDIES FOR DARK UNDER-EYE CIRCLES
•
Dehydration: If you’re not getting enough H2O, the lack of water can make the skin under your eyes appear dull.
•
Head elevation: When asleep, fluid can collect under your eyes, making the skin appear puffy and dark. Using pillows to further elevate your head can prevent this fluid buildup and shrink dark circles. Cucumbers: While you mainly see cucumbers used in spas, they’re a great tool to help de-puff your eyes. The vegetable is also a great source of vitamin C and water, which will keep your under- eyes hydrated and looking fresh! Cold compress: Place two spoons in your freezer for at least five minutes or until they are chilled. Then, gently place the outside circumference of the spoons under your eyes to shrink dilated blood vessels and reduce the size of dark circles. You could also use tea bags if you prefer.
As you age, you likely see dark spots underneath your eyes. Luckily, dark circles aren’t typically a cause of concern, but you may want to lighten their appearance. Here’s everything you need to know about what causes dark circles and how to treat them. While aging is a common cause of dark circles, other factors could also cause shades of blue, purple, brown, or black to appear under your eyes, including: • Genetics: Many medical professionals say dark circles could run in your family, meaning you’re prone to have the condition as you age.
How can you treat dark circles? Although dark circles are inconvenient, there are treatment options available to you that you can use in the comfort of your own home!

Dermatitis: If you’ve suffered from eczema or contact dermatitis, it can cause blood vessels under your eyes to dilate and become visible. Excessive Rubbing: Sometimes, your eyelids itch! But rubbing or scratching them too much can cause your eyes to swell and the blood vessels under your eyes to break.
There are also medicinal treatments available to help remove dark circles permanently. Consult your health care provider to determine if one of those treatments is right for you!
