under eye circles

Yes. That bitchy thing....
Most of us have under eye circles but there ar some diferences on how you got them in the first place....
Causes:

1. Night out/ study or working till late. 
2. Sickness.
3. Born naturally with dark circles.
4. Poor diet.
5. Tobacco, drugs and alcool (usually associated with nº1).
6. Ultra fair skin. 
7. Lack of eye care

But wait... theres solutions for that!
For Reasons nº 1, 2, 5 :
  A good night rest and a cooling mask will do.
If the problem persist and you can relate to nº 5, STOP consuming! It comes a time when you have to choose beauty or bad pleasures. (also that stuff isn't good for nothing and you know it)
 I use, to attend this reasons nº 1 and 2 The Body Shop Eye Mask.  It's great if you have a migraine or headache too. Just pop it on the frizer for 5 min and it's good to go!

For Reason 4 and 7:
You know, having a balanced diet is not only good for your inside and loosing wieght. It reflects on your skin! So eat your veggies and drink alots of water.
Lack of eye care is serious. Not only beacause if you don't take care of that sensitive part of your body, when you turn 30 you will have eyes of a 50 year old woman (fine lines, wrinkles, baggy eyes, etc.)
So use a good eye care product as an everyday and don't forget using it day and night.
I use two products:
Avon Clinical Eye gel/ cream duo, that has two tipes of produts in one to attack specific areas like upper and lower eyelids.
Once a week i use Skinlite concuber pads to smoothe tired eyes and puffiness.

DIY TIP: you can use real cumcuber slices, just remember to store the veggie in a cold place before slicing. Anothe thing that works great its tea bags of camomille infusion. Just put the bags in a warm cup and wait 2-3min then place them on your eyes and leave them for no longer than ten minutes!

For reason nº3 and 6.
Sorry sweetie, you're stuck with them forever. Only concealer ans illuminator combined work on this. But you should  continue with an eyecare routine. If it makes you feel better I have reason nº3 and a little of reason nº6 too.
I use alot of products but my concealer varies. Today I used Benefit Erase Paste nº1.

 

What do you do to fight under eye circles? I would love to ear/read your thoughts about this.
