How to get rid of dark circles and puffy eyes

29th November 2021
"Whether the cause is a few long days or too many restless nights, dark circles and puffy eyes can leave you looking and feeling like you’re in a slump"

Whether the cause is a few long days or too many restless nights, dark circles and puffy eyes can leave you looking and feeling like you’re in a slump. Splashing cold water on your face or grabbing concealer is not the answer.

There are many more effective ways to unpack those under-eye bags and prevent eye puffiness.

Get enough sleep:

Catching up on sleep can also help reduce the appearance of dark circles. Sleep deprivation can cause your skin to appear pale, making the dark circles more obvious.

Allow yourself seven to eight hours of rest to prevent dark circles from appearing. Sleep not only helps keep eyes bright. It also aids your body in repairing cell damage to your skin.

Avoid alcohol and caffeine:

Though they may perk you up in the short term, caffeine and alcohol don't do the same for your skin. They can cause mild dehydration, making dark circles more obvious.

Reduce the look of under-eye bags by reducing the amount of alcohol and caffeine you consume. You can drink water instead which can help to smooth the skin beneath your eyes.

Go DIY and Try Using Tea Bags:

If you need a quick fix for reducing puffiness and darkness, grab a couple of bags of tea that contains caffeine.

Brew them for a few minutes in hot water, let them cool until they feel lukewarm, and put them on your closed eyes for three to four minutes.

The caffeine will help constrict the blood vessels beneath the skin around your eyes.

Apply Brightening Creams:

Products made with hydroquinone, especially when combined with retinoid, hyaluronic acid, or vitamin C, have been useful for some people in lightening dark circles.

Retinoids can affect both cellular and molecular properties of the skin, and make your skin look younger.

Apply a cold compress:

A cold compress can help reduce swelling and shrink dilated blood vessels. This can reduce the appearance of puffiness and help eliminate dark circles.

Wrap a few ice cubes in a clean washcloth and apply to your eyes. You can also dampen a washcloth with cold water and apply it to the skin under your eyes for 20 minutes for the same effect.
