Dark circles are linked to a difference in skin colour in the lower eyelid area. Often, they are due to a lack of sleep, but not only... and they always give a tired and aged appearance! What are the solutions to remedy them?

The problem of dark circles

Dark circles

The appearance of dark circles or bags under the eyes is linked to poor blood circulation and a disruption of the lymphatic tissues. It is important to note that the epidermis under the eyes is up to 4 times thinner than on the rest of the body, a very thin skin that is often attacked and marked.
There are two types of dark circles:

  • Brown ones: linked to a natural overproduction of melanin. The eye contour is darker, in shades ranging from golden to brown. Hereditary, these dark circles are more common in Mediterranean skin.
  • Bluish ones: they are linked to poor blood circulation often induced by fatigue.

Fighting dark circles

There are several tips to fight dark circles. First of all, it is important to have a good lifestyle, to properly hydrate your face with a day cream adapted to your skin type and finally, to restart circulation, perform massages around the eyes. These tips apply to bluish dark circles because for brown, hereditary ones, they are much more difficult to remove (you can still hide them with foundation).
To avoid dark circles, you must also avoid visual fatigue.
