Remedies for Dark Eye Circles

There are some home remedies that may help to temporarily diminish the appearance of dark circles under the eyes, and prevent dark circles from worsening.

1. Be sure to drink enough water (drink up to 8 glass of water a day)

2. Wear sunscreen with a minimum of SPF 30 under the eyes to prevent skin weakening caused by sun damage.

3. Get plenty of rest.

4. Apply plain cool teabags over closed eyes. Don’t use herbal teabags because most aren't as effective.

5. Apply cool cucumber slices over closed eyes for 15 minutes.

6. Be careful not to consume too much dietary salt. Start by learning about sources of sodium in your diet.

7. Apply eye cream with Vitamin K may help with bruising.

8. Vitamin C helps to strengthen blood vessel walls.

9. The dietary supplements grape seed extract and Pycnogenol contain antioxidant pigments that may help to strengthen blood vessels. They should be used under medical supervision by people on "blood-thinning" drugs such as Coumadin (Warfarin) and Aspirin. Certain foods, such as cranberries, blueberries, bilberries, tea (green and black), black currant, onions, legumes and parsley also contain these anti-oxidant pigments.

10. Eat kidney-balancing foods. In traditional Chinese medicine, a bluish cast under the eyes is due to an imbalance in kidney energy. Learn more about kidney Yang deficiency and the right counter foods to eat.

11. Concealer. Apply concealer for an instant radiant look. And it is also a makeup tool that I cannot live without![b]
