#BeautyCare 101: Here's how to get rid of dark circles

LAHORE - Skincare is the very important thing to take care of. The excessive use of electronics, an unhealthy diet, disturbed sleeping routine causes dark circles below the eyes and yes there is no miracle cure for dark under eye circles.

“Even the most expensive eye creams and procedures can’t completely eliminate them,” says the founder of the skincare line Paula’s Choice. The good news: You can minimize their appearance. Let's have a look at some of the easy to do tips for minimizing  dark circles affect:

1# Determine the underlying cause:



For the best plan of action, you first have to understand what’s causing your dark circles. Lack of sleep, an allergic reaction, or the consumption of salty foods can be factors. But dark circles can also be hereditary. Indeed, “genetics can play a major role.” Some people are just born having a predisposition to dark circles.”

2# Know which skin care ingredients to look for:



In addition to a good sunscreen, consider adding a serum with “skin-brightening ingredients that improve skin’s natural vibrancy, such as niacinamide, bearberry extract, and vitamin C.

3# Upgrade your eye cream:



 

You may also want to upgrade your eye cream for one with a harder-working formula. Wizemann recommends looking for a product containing hyaluronic acid or glycerin to moisturize the area. Burt’s Bees Renewal Smoothing Eye Cream earned high ratings by the GHI Beauty Lab for moisturization.

4# Choose eye makeup wisely:



Make sure you’re using eye products that won’t slide around and make dark circles appear worse. Lots of eye pencils are exceptionally greasy and move around the eye during the day. Buy waterproof eye pencils.

5# Be careful when removing your makeup:



It's not just how you apply makeup that can affect dark circles, but how you remove it. “That constant tugging and pulling at the delicate skin around the eye increases sagging and, as a result, can look darker than the skin around it,” says Begoun.
