How to Remove Dark Circles Under Eyes

By on November 24, 2010

Do dark circles worry you? Are you losing sleep over dark circles under eyes? Worrying and lack of sleep will add to your problem and increase dark circles.

So the first step that you need to take is: stop worrying. Though many skin experts argue that stress and lack of sleep have anything to do with under eye circles, you must understand that over long run, they can affect your facial skin as well as your delicate skin under eye.

Other factors that cause dark circles are irregularity in pigmentation, your diet, hereditary and lifestyle factors and, the most common cause, over exposure to sun.

Making some lifestyle changes can help you to remove the dark circles under your eyes. Avoid smoking and excess alcohol. Though these things are easier said than done, if you care about your complexion, they should be avoided. If you are one-pack-a-day smoker, slowly reduce the number of cigarettes you smoke and then quit smoking altogether. Adequate sleep and meditation can also help you treat dark circles under eye faster.

Your diet also plays an important role in your skin care. Include a lot of food rich in vitamin K, E and C to reduce dark circles. Some foods rich in vitamin K are spinach, celery, asparagus, bacon, cheese and coffee.

Nuts, whole grains, sea food, apples and carrots are rich in vitamin E and can help you glow and remove dark circles. All citrus fruits and tomatoes are good source of vitamin C. Iron rich food such as thyme, green beans, cereals and chard can also reduce dark circles.

If you want to go out on a date or a party and are in a hurry to reduce dark circles under eyes, some instant home remedies can also help you. But you must remember that these remedies help more if done on a regular basis.

Make potato and cucumber juice, soak cotton pads in this mixture and keep it on your eyes for 20 minutes and wash it with cold water and voila, you will see a difference with your own eyes. Another home remedy that works in just 10 minutes and is quite simple includes applying a thick paste of turmeric powder, tomato juice and lemon juice and washing it off with cold water.

If you are not in a hurry and want a long term remedy, apply almond oil under your eyes for 2 weeks and you will notice the difference.

Simple lifestyle changes and home remedies can help you by a long way in reducing dark circles under eyes.
