Because the skin is very thin, avoid friction as much as possible around the eyes. So even when going to clean the eye area of makeup, should be cleaned gently as possible. If your under eye dark circles, there may be a divided blood vessels resulting in the kind of bruising.

Here are tips from the book by Monisha Bharadwaj, Indian Beauty Secrets, to overcome the dark circles around the eyes. There were dark circles under the eyes that can not be eliminated, but you can try to reduce it by using raw potatoes. Slice the potatoes, or for the two raw potatoes, then close your eyes, and compresses. For more comfort, make the bag compress. Here’s how: grated raw potatoes, put into cloth bags small porous enough. Kompreskan the eyes for 15-20 minutes. Do this a few days. The potato starch will “lift” the skin and makes it glow to create a black circle under the eyes not too visible. If your eyelids feel dry after doing this compresses, apply almond oil or olive oil before bed.

If there were no potatoes, you can replace it with apples. Apples contain potassium, vitamin B, vitamin C, and tannins, good to help eliminate dark circles under the eyes.
