Dark circles under your eyes can give you a tired look and be a hassle when trying to apply makeup. Causes of dark circles under your eyes can be hereditary, an allergic reaction to dust or pollen or just a lack of sleep. Whatever the cause, you can try a few techniques at home to eliminate the appearance of these bruised-looking rings.
Step 1
Apply fresh sliced cucumber to each eye for five to 10 minutes. Cucumber helps lighten the skin and fades dark spots, such as under-eye circles.
Step 2
Apply a moisturizer daily, containing Vitamin K and Retinol. Vitamin K will help increase blood flow to your skin. Retinol will help reduce puffiness and assists in the skin's natural healing process.
Step 3
Drink eight to 10 glasses of water daily. This will flush your system out, getting rid of the toxins and allergens that cause dark circles under the eyes.
Step 4
Sleep at least eight hours per night. Fewer hours will cause dark circles and puffiness under the eyes and show that they have not been rested as much as required.
Step 5
Apply a light coating of Vitamin E. Pierce a Vitamin E caplet and apply a small amount of the vitamin oil under your eyes. Vitamin E is attributed to healthy skin and rejuvenation.
