Anyone use any products for their dark circles? I'm currently using green tea bags, but its such a hassle to make the tea and theres a lot of bogus cream products out there. Just wondering if anyone is using something that actually works.

Funny, I had just shot an Indian fellow who complained of the same thing.

Here's my advice. Just go to the cosmetic counter of any large department store and see what they have to offer. Many large pharmaceutical firms are coming out with more effective bleaching creams all the time.

If they can't help you, a good dermatologist is the next step.

If all else fails, they have full lines of cover-up cosmetics that can offer at least an effective, temporary fix.

Eat less sour foods, less fried foods, canned foods, beans, peanuts, salads

Get more sleep, improve your health if you're ill

Do this: Lie down on a slant board with feet raised for 5-10 mins, soak cotton pads in cold milk, rosewater, fig juice, crushed mint juice, and place over eyes for 5-10 minutes. Apply crushed mints around eyes for 5-10 minutes. Before bed gently massage around eyes for 5-10 minutes. Do daily blinking and palming exercises.

Supplements: Take 2-4 gms ashwangandha, shatavari, or ginseng herbal tablets or powder before lunch and dinner

This is for permanent fix.

Thanks for the replies. I'll try taking some ginseng herbal tablets.
Bleaching creams also sound good. I'll go and check them out.

With all the miraculous claims about herbs like ginseng, I doubt that these naturopathic cures will have much of an effect, unfortunately.

1) More sleep
2) Moisturizer on entire face 2-3 times a day
3) Concealer, then powder

Get an eye cream which consists of vitamin k and retinol. Studies have shown that they significantly reduce puffy dark circles around eyes. Good luck with it! Also, exercise helps as it circulates your blood and make your overall complexion healthy looking and glowing.
