How to Hide Dark Under Eye Circles

Under eye circles happen to the best of us. Whether they're from springs seasonal allergies, one too many margaritas or the fact that you haven't had a proper nights sleep in 5 years. Whatever the reason, you don't want to don them daily. Under eye bags have an uncanny knack for knowing exactly when you’ll run into your ex or have an important event on. Let’s avoid the drama and get rid of them for good.

One word. Spoons

Cold spoons to cure your under eye woes? Seems strange, however it’s proven to be one of the most effective ways to combat those frightfully dark bags from appearing. Dark circles and puffiness often go hand in hand. Let’s treat the problem right at the source. Before you go to bed, place two large spoons in the freezer. When you wake up from catching a few zzz’s, place the spoons on closed eyes for 10 minutes. The coldness of the spoons helps constrict your blood vessels and reduces the swelling. Plus, spoons are the perfect size for the eye area. Viola, smooth, visibly brighter under eyes are now in sight.

Pile up the pillows

Makeup is fun and all, but you want to know what’s even more fun? Needing less of it because you have less to cover up. Fight off dark hue under eye circles by adding a few extra pillows. When you finally get some shut eye, make it matter. Experts recommend sleeping with an extra pillow or two for a brighter under eye area. The additional height promotes lymphatic drainage which prevents fluid from settling in the skin around the eyes. We call that the ultimate beauty sleep.

BB Trick

When the dark circles have set in, we recommend this BB tip and trick to get you through your 9-5 without looking like a zombie.
