How to Get Rid of Under Eyes Dark Circles and Puffiness
Before introducing you to the solution, let’s first understand what leads to dark circles and puffy eyes.
Dark circles and puffiness can be caused due to stress, irregular sleep timing, increased screen timing, etc. One of the common reasons for dark circles and puffy eyes is ageing. It causes the skin under the eyes to get thin and loose, causing the blood vessels to become more visible giving the appearance of darkened under-eyes. Ageing also causes the weakening of muscles and tissues that support eyelids. As the skin starts to sag, the fat around the eyes can move to the lower area of the eyes, making them look swollen or puffy. However, what many of you don’t know is that dehydrated skin or lack of moisturisation can also lead to dark circles and puffy eyes.
Did you know, that under-eye skin lacks pores? Also, under-eye skin is one of the thinnest areas of our body. So, no pores mean no sebum, and no sebum means no moisturization.
This means that most of the time, your under-eyes area remains dry. While exposure to sunlight continues damaging your skin, the lack of moisturisation causes your under-eye skin to age faster in comparison to the other areas of your face/skin. This is why you must have noticed that the signs of ageing start getting visible around the eye areas first, making your eyes appear dull and tired.4
