Hello beauties,

We are now at the beginning of new month. Summer is here and so does month of april.. Recently I have been going crazy trying for new skin care products especially for my under eye area. As a blogger I always keep on switching on to different products. But this time I thought of going organic with my skin care. Yes products which are chemical free paraben free cruelty free and lots more.

So I picked up few products from Organic Harvest I will be reviewing two in this post. One of the product is a Under Eye Gel and other from their Activ range ANTI DARK CIRCLE SERUM BRIGHT I ASH TREE BARK EXTRACT RANGE.

I am always pretty excited when I get something new for my skin its really amazing to have such wonderful products which just protects your skin from any harsh chemicals and preservatives.

This serum comes in a dark glass bottle with a dropper. Now this serum is from active range of organic harvest which is just being recently launched.

The quantity is 30 ml which will last you longer than you can think. All you need is just one drop of serum and apply it under your eye area. Massage it into anticlockwise using your finger tips. One drop of this serum is enough for both the eyes. Make sure it doesn’t get into your eyes as it can give you stinging and redness. This serum is a clear color liquid which instantly gets absorbed into skin. It does feel little sticky for time being but later feels very light and comfortable.

So after I put this serum I go with this Under Eye Gel it comes in a small plastic containers it’s a brown color gel when applied on serum it instantly gives a cooling sensation to my under eye area. I just massage it anticlockwise with my finger tip. I generally do this every single night before going to bed. It does feel little sticky and it also has some smell of natural herbal products. But overall doesn’t feel heavy or oily.

Now my take on this product. Trust me this two products work amazingly for your under eye dark circles as well as fine lines and wrinkles.

After application for 3-4 nights I observed my skin was feeling super soft and smooth. My under eye area remains hydrated for complete day. I could feel that due to enough hydration that little fine lines which I observed almost were less. Over a period of time I also see my dark circles had lighten I don’t have much of dark circles but this product works really well even on under eye bags puffiness and fine lines. After application next morning I feel my eyes feel refreshed and my under eye area looks much clear and hydrated. Though this product doesn’t give instant brightness for under eye area.

Overall I recommend this products for under eye dark circles treatment. It doesn’t cause any stinging while application. Sensitive eyes be careful of not getting this product near your eyes. Price its pretty expensive but you can tell every time when you apply this product that its working on your skin. This products is only to be used in pm. It helps in increasing blood circulation improving skin tone and color. If you are looking for skin care products which are cruelty free and paraben free also chemical free you can definitely check for Organic Harvest. We already use lot of chemicals in our makeup so I am trying to keep my skin care as free of chemicals as possible. I am really impressed with this two products..Had not expected it to give me so fast results. Have you tried Organic Harvest products ?

Hello angels,

Its almost my birthday week and am so excited for my weekend birthday. Today I have something different to share with you all. I am a cosmetologist and being part of this field i see most of people complaining about the dark circles. I wanted to share my knowledge on dark circles through this article.
Are you having trouble in getting rid of dark circles. Let us first know why we tend to get dark circles.

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.

Sun damage which can lead to increase in melanin pigment causing hyper pigmentation and lastly ageing can weaken the tissues around eyes.

Now after knowing the cause how you get rid of them?

Very firstly you need to change your lifestyle. Distressing 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.

You need to hydrate yourself by drinking enough amount of fluids. Also you need too refrain from smoking.

To hydrate your under eye area you need to use eye cream every night before sleep you need to massage it anticlockwise and clockwise to improve the circulation under eye area.
Always wear sunglasses to protect your eye area from sun rays.

Try to apply cold cucumber juice or slice of raw potatoes on your eyes. This may help in reducing tired dull looking eyes.

If you tend to get puffiness around eyes after getting up in morning you need to change your sleep position by raising your head high.

Retinol a cream will help in increasing collagen production thus helping to strengthen under eye area. Vitamin E and C creams also help for collagen boosting .

If you got intense dark circles you can even opt for chemical peels and laser treatments like Laser resurfacing.
IPL Intense pulse light can remove pigmented cells under eyes.
Hydro quinine and Kojic acid are known as skin lightening creams which can be used with Intensive pulsed light treatment for hyper pigmentation under eye area. IPL can also help for venous congestion under eye area. This may take few sitting for desirable results.
If dark circles is due to fat loss under You can even opt for hyaluronic acid facial which are temporary injectable fillers.
Surgically Blepharoplasty is most effective way to get rid of dark circles permanently.

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.
