Dark under-eye circles are the appearance of dark discolouration or shadows under the eyes. They can make a person look tired, unhealthy, and older than their actual age.
There are several possible causes of dark under-eye circles, including genetics, ageing, lack of sleep, dehydration, allergies, and certain medical conditions such as anaemia or thyroid disorders. The skin under the eyes is also thinner and more delicate than elsewhere on the face, so blood vessels and pigmentation changes can be more visible.
While dark under-eye circles are not harmful, they can be a cosmetic concern for some people. Treatment options include getting enough sleep, staying hydrated, managing allergies, using skincare products specifically formulated for the under-eye area, and in severe cases, cosmetic procedures like chemical peels, skin resurfacing, or fillers.
There are several natural remedies that may help to reduce the appearance of dark circles. These include getting enough sleep, using a cold compress, staying hydrated, using natural skin lighteners like lemon juice or turmeric, and using a gentle eye cream with ingredients like vitamin C, vitamin K, caffeine, or retinol.
