We all agree that skin under our eye area is much much thinner
than the facial skin we can feel when touching it with fingers. Now if you are ageing there is going to be fat loss and tissue loss making your skin more thin and wrinkled. When we don’t give enough hydration to the skin it tends to dry out giving you first sign of ageing which is fine lines around eyes.
Dark circles have many causes which are mentioned one by one in this post. Now how to really identify you have got dark circles. Sometimes when you see bluish dark circles it can be due to venous congestion. You need to massage your eyes to improve circulation and so there is no stagnant blood in vessels. As our skin is thin this stagnant blood gives us
bluish black appearance. Many people have got deep sunken eyes and the shadow of eyes make you
feel that you have got dark circles in such cases its your hereditary facial structure you can go for injectable fillers in such cases. Well in such case you really don’t have them but still it appears to be that way. Nowadays man and women who are loosing weight and are on strict diet they too tend to develop dark circles due to starvation. Excessive weight loss can cause fat loos under eye area too.
Hereditary is also one of the cause for permanent dark circles where you see dark circles run in family genetics.

Smoking can cause wrinkling of under eye area as it helps in
weakening of collagen tissue. Already due to thin skin it has very less collage and elasticity so smoking can cause faster ageing around eyes.
Not having enough water, lack of sleep, stress and unbalanced
diet can also lead to dark circles. Caffeine consumption is also one of the known cause for dark circles.
When you have thyroid problems and iron deficiency i.e anaemia it can
lead to dark circles.
After crying for long time you observe puffiness under eyes. As water travels where there is salt in tissue it gives you bags under eyes.

lastly ageing can weaken the tissues around eyes.

yourself by doing a regular exercise even if its 20 mins walk, yoga and going for spas can also help you relax. Having a good amount of
sleep and a proper diet with increase in water intake can help.

fluids. Also you need too refrain from smoking.

There are plenty of creams and gels available.
Creams work best for ageing skin and gels work best on young skin. When you are
approaching 30 not only your skin needs anti ageing creams but even your under
eye area needs it. The creams which
contain caffeine helps in constricting dilated blood vessels under eye area. I
even found aloe vera gels helps in reducing dark circles and puffiness. Once
you start using creams you need to use them forever because they act only on
temporary basis. Permanent treatments are peels and lasers but still for
maintaining you will always have to hydrate your under eye area.
As a makeup lover for me concelar is best way to give even flawless under eye area and to hide your dark circles but of course its just a temporary tool.
Remember prevention is always better than cure. Keeping your under eye area well hydrated is the first thing you need to do. Hydration is first step towards anti ageing treatment.
