There are a number of products that are designed to help thicken the delicate eye skin, thus making the capillaries less obvious while other eye creams help lighten the dark skin, sometimes using light refracting pigments or gentle skin bleaches. These are probably best for those whose dark under eye circles are genetic, and can be combined with a yellow-toned under eye concealer to counteract the blue tones in the skin. It is possible that the dark circles are caused by illness (kidney and thyroid diseases being the main culprits), in which case it is obviously wise to talk about solutions with a doctor. Certain medications can also exacerbate the dark circle problem, as can allergies. Skin creams containing vitamins K and C can help the dark circles as they both boost the skin's nutrients, strengthen the blood capillaries and, in the case of vitamin K, help heal bruising. Other ingredients often found in under eye creams are peptides, alpha-arbutin and the patented formula Hylexin. Although no cream will be able to banish the dark under eye circles completely, used daily in conjunction with plenty of water (to rehydrate the skin), reduced sodium intake and a nutritionally sound diet, the circles should become noticeably less visible over time. |
