Reduce any dark circles and under-eye bags you\u2019ve accumulated from years of having fun.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Us human beings are imperfect creatures. We know we\u2019d like to get in better shape, but that chocolate cookie looks mighty tasty<\/a>. We know we have to wake up early, but there\u2019s only one episode left on the Netflix show we\u2019re binging on. We know we should apply sunblock religiously<\/a>, but we forget to bring the bottle with us to the beach.<\/p>\n That\u2019s life. But that doesn\u2019t mean we can\u2019t form some habits and best practices for mitigating the inevitable effects of a life well-lived. For every late night chatting over drinks, for every day out in the sun, and for every bedtime, we didn\u2019t have the energy to apply eye cream, there are as many tips and tricks we can use to fight signs of aging.<\/p>\n Nobody\u2019s perfect. That\u2019s why we\u2019re here to list 27 different routines that will help reduce any dark circles and under-eye bags you\u2019ve accumulated from years of having fun.<\/p>\n To be honest, even if you\u2019ve spent your life diligently treating your skin as carefully as you possibly can, we\u2019re all going to show signs of aging sooner or later – and that includes under-eye bags and dark circles.<\/p>\n Over time, the skin naturally loses collagen and grows thinner, so regardless of what kind of skin you have or what good habits you maintain, veins will inevitably start to show through the thin skin around your eyes. As we already know, exposure to the sun speeds up the process of collagen breaking down, so your best weapon against under-eye circles is disciplined and consistent sunblock application<\/a> habits from a young age. (Wearing sunglasses while out in the sun helps, too – less squinting = fewer crow’s feet!)<\/p>\n The best habits, however, can\u2019t change your genes! Genetics is the biggest determinant of what kind of skin we will have and what we\u2019ll look like as we age. Those of us that have inherited fair or thin skin tend to show under circles more easily than others due to the fact that when our blood pools in the capillaries under our eyes, it\u2019s simply more obvious through lighter skin.<\/p>\n Unfortunately, as more and more blood accumulates there, your delicate capillaries begin to stretch and strain under the weight, leading to more leaking and blood pooling – and ultimately even darker under-eye circles.<\/p>\n Yet for others, dark under-eye circles and under-eye bags aren\u2019t caused by aging, sunbathing, or genetics. Sometimes it\u2019s a simple matter of allergies. Year-round allergies like those to dust or mold, or seasonal allergies many of us experience in the spring trigger the release of histamines, which cause an inflammatory response. That means our blood vessels become inflamed and swell – including those under our eyes.<\/p>\n Experiment with the following routines to see which one works the most effectively for you. Remember to use patience and consistency when trying out a new routine. Follow the routine every day for 4 to 6 weeks. If after that period of time, you still don\u2019t see the results you want, move on to the next practice and see if that works better for reducing your dark under-eye bags and circles.<\/p>\nWhy Do We Get Eye Circles?<\/strong><\/h2>\n
