I've been asked a lot lately about remedies for bags and dark circles under the eye. First, let's take a look at what causes them.
CAUSES:
For some people, dark circles, come as part of a genetic package, while for others, these symptoms appear and fade in relation to everyday activities. The causes of dark circles and bags vary, but mostly they are due to blood vessel coloring in relation to skin pigmentation, under-eye fluid retention and age.
Main causes diets, sleep habits, fluid retention, aging, and medical conditions.
In case you don't know, these are what bags look like.
REMEDIES TO FIX THEM
Cold water is always good for bags and to minimize the look of enlarged pours.
1. EYE CREAM
Using an eye cream in the morning and at night will help treat dark circles. An eye cream with caffenine is ideal because it tightens your skin and it REDUCES bags. While applying the cream you're also able to press the bones in that area and drain the fluid that caused the bags to begin with. Olay has a cream out for this.
2.CUCUMBERS
Refrigerate a cucumber then, wash and slice it. Lay down with the slices on your eyes for 30 minutes with your feet elevated. Then rinse your eyes with COLD water.
3. POTATO SLICES
Raw potatoes have a high concentration of starch this helps it act as an inflammatory to reduce redness and swelling. They also contain acid which lightens skin so this is also good for those dark circles.
Refrigerate the potato for a while, after slice it and spray water on your eyes. Place the potato slices on your eyes and lay down with your feet elevated. Do this for 30 minutes then rinse with COLD water.
4. ICE COLD WATER
Put ice cubes in a bowl of water until the water is freezing. Dip your wash cloth in and lay it over your face. Repeat 3xs.
5.COLD SPOON
Place two cold spoons in the freezer (or keep them there). After they're cold enough (1 hour). Take them out and place the round back of the spoon your eyes for four five minutes. You should notice a diffrence immediately.
6.WITCH HAZEL
Put some Witch Hazel on a cotton ball and pat under your eyes.
7.SLEEP
You'd be surprised at what a full nights sleep will do. Eight hours nothing less.
