10 Ways To Get Rid of Dark Circles And Wrinkles Around Eyes

How many times have we squeezed in just one more episode of our favorite Netflix show? Or how many times have we pulled all-nighters? 

We only realize when one day we wake up and look at ourselves in the mirror, and our eyes resemble those of a raccoon. 

Dark circles and wrinkles are something every person has struggled with at some point in their life.  

They can occur due to a wide range of reasons and can be challenging to eliminate.

However, with a few lifestyle changes and use of the right products, dark circles as well as wrinkles, eye bags, and puffiness can be treated and prevented.

 

What Exactly Are Dark Circles, Wrinkles, Puffiness, And Bags Around Eyes? 

Dark circles refer to the pigmented and dark skin under your eyes. Think of it as a dark shadow that is cast right below your eyes.

Wrinkles, on the other hand, are tiny, shriveled up lines that appear on the corner and underneath your eyes. 

Puffiness and bags refer to the swollen pockets that form under your eyes usually as a result of allergies or water retention under your eyes.  

The critical fact to note is that the skin underneath your eyes is extremely sensitive and hence, more prone to dryness and damage. 

 

What Causes Dark Circles, Wrinkles, Puffiness and Bags Around Eyes?

There are a number of reasons that can cause the skin underneath your eyes to suffer from dark circles, puffiness, bags and wrinkles. Following are the main ones:

  1. Lack of Sleep And Too Much Stress

Lack of quality as well as quantity of sleep in addition to being stressed is a recipe of disaster.

Your skin naturally repairs itself during the night, and if you don’t get adequate good quality sleep, it will soon start to show. 

Improper sleep may not cause dark circles directly, but it leads to your skin becoming excessively dull and pale, which allows for the tiny blood vessels underneath your skin to show.

This leads to the popping up of those dreadful blue/purple dark circles.

Plus, if you are stressed due to one reason or another, then naturally it will have an effect on your body.

  1. Allergies

Allergies irritate your skin and can cause the eyes to become swollen and puffy. The inflation caused by allergies also leads to excessive fluid buildup, which can cause puffiness and bags under eyes.

Allergies also lead you to rub your eyes unconsciously, which eventually damages and darkens your skin.

Rubbing your eyes can cause the tiny blood vessels to rupture sometimes as well. This gives the appearance of bruise-like dark circles under your eyes. 

  1. Improper Diet

An improper diet is perhaps one of the biggest contributors to dark circles. A lack of iron and essential vitamins can also cause some people to experience puffy eyes and dark circles. 

If you are not drinking enough water that too can cause you to have puffy eyes and under-eye bags.

Naturally, water tends to accumulate in areas with more salt. If you are not drinking enough water and your salt intake is high, you will feel bloated and puffy overall. 

  1. Lack of Grooming

Exposure to the sun can expedite the process of breaking down the collagen in your skin, making your skin lose its suppleness and become thin. A lack of collagen means your skin becomes thinner, which can make the dark circles worse than they already are.

Excessive dryness can lead to the skin becoming wrinkled and losing its elasticity. Another reason could be a lack of hydration and moisture. 

If you are not using sunscreen and moisturizing your skin, especially under the eyes, then the skin can over time, become damaged and then pigmented.

This is because the skin that is dry and not hydrated enough tends to stretch and break more since it lacks elasticity.

  1. Excessive Smoking

Believe it or not, your “smoke breaks” could be pretty damaging to your skin’s overall and especially to the sensitive skin underneath your eyes.

Tobacco is another one of those things that break down collagen and causes your skin to become dull and thin.

  1. Aging and Genetics

Genetics play a huge role in what type of skin we have. If you have genetically inherited thin skin that is on the lighter side, your veins and capillaries will be more prominent. 

Hereditary and genetic factors can also lead to the skin under your eyes to become more pigmented, leading to dark circles.  

Similarly, aging takes a toll on your skin as well. As you age, your skin thins out even more, and the collagen in your skin that contributes to its elasticity and suppleness naturally reduces, making it more prone to dark circles, wrinkles and puffiness. 

 

Treatment For Dark Circles, Puffiness, Bad, Wrinkles, Bags Around Eyes

That being said, there are several ways with which you can treat, manage and ultimately remove your dark circles, wrinkles, puffiness, and under-eye bags for good.

We will go over some of the home remedies for dark circles that you can use and also the best under eye products that are available and the key ingredients you should be looking for.

 

Home Remedies For Dark Circles, Wrinkles, Puffiness And Bags 

Some of the easiest home remedies include using ingredients that are already available in your kitchen or pantry. 

For instance, using cucumber can help reduce the appearance of dark circles, and puffiness when placed on the eyes for a few minutes.

Cucumbers have an abundance of vitamin C that helps to lighten the skin and reduce signs of aging.

Another home remedy includes the use of tea bags on your eyes. 

Place used tea bags into the fridge, once chilled take them out and place them on your eyes for instant relief from soreness and puffiness. If used consistently over time, tea bags can help reduce dark circles, fine lines, and wrinkles because of it’s anti-inflammatory properties.

Orange juice can work wonders as well given that it contains Vitamin C and E. Mix a few drops orange juice with glycerin and use a cotton pad to apply it to under your eyes.

A time-old remedy to reduce bags and wrinkles under eyes is to gently apply chilled spoons to the under-eye.

Wear A Sunscreen And Moisturize

Wearing sunscreen is not only important for your overall skin but is especially crucial when it comes to protecting the delicate under-eye skin.

As mentioned before, sun damage can increase the breakdown of collagen in your skin. 

It can also cause your skin to become excessively dry, which then leads to wrinkles. 

Get a good sunscreen that has ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, vitamin c and e, and collagen. Don’t forget to use it every time you head out into the sun.   

The augmented sunscreens act as a multi-use product: they protect your skin from sun damage and help retain the moisture balance of your skin as well.

Wearing a pair of cool sunglasses can help too!
