Vanish Dark Circles: Dark circles seem to be some of the most commonly asked skincare problems that add a tired, stressful, and older impression to people who have them. Be it a dearth of sleep, excessive screen time, or genetic backgrounds, several causes have brought about those dreaded under-eye shadows. The good news, however, is that one natural remedy may just be useful in lightening them within seven days.
Consistently thinning skin, dilated blood vessels, pigmentation or retention of fluid underneath the eyes causes dark circles. Lack of proper sleep, dehydration, excessive exposure to screens, and even allergies are some of the popular suspects.
One of the best and cheapest ways to reduce dark circles effectively is frosty therapy. It generally improves blood circulation, reduces puffiness, and tightens the skin, which are all important points when caring for under-eye areas.
Wrap the ice cube in a fine cloth or use green tea/rose water-infused ice cubes for added advantage benefits.
Slowly massage the under-region of your eyes in a circular motion for 1–2 minutes once a day (ideally in the morning).
Dab dry and continue with a light under-eye cream or moisturizer.
Cold packs trigger constrictions of blood vessels, thus reducing inflammation. In addition, with the calming ingredients such as green tea and rose water, the benefits multiply; they reduce the darkness of the pigments, hydrate skin, and soothe tired eyes.
Sleep for about 7 to 8 hours a night to prevent the pooling of fluids.
Drinking plenty of water helps detoxify.
Limit screen time or add blue light filters.
Include berries, spinach, and almonds in your diet.
Always apply sunscreen, including under your eyes.
