there's an ad in there for a dark circle "repair" product called Hylexin.

while it sounds too good to be true and a bit voodoo to me [i used to work for medical researchers, so i'm skeptical of a LOT of claims products make!], it could be worth a try for anyone with serious dark circles that don't respond to anything else.

however it's $95US for a small tube!



take the claims of this product with a grain of salt, it swears it can replace Botox and plastic surgery... yeah... right!

:roll:

i personally do not recommend that AT ALL.. i think dark circles are my biggest problem which was why i was willing to pay 95 bucks for it..
it did NOTHING... and i was religious about putting it on

I've bought sooooo many concealers just for my circles.. and for some reason, when i first apply the concealer itll look fine, but for some reason after an hr. the concealer would just start to disappear, and my circles would look darker!!! (i know after concealer sets its darker)

the other thing that bugs me sooo much about my undereye is i have those little lines, that look like sagging skin, or wrinkles?.. and my concealer would settle in there and its so obvious!!!!!, if i set it with powder my eye would just look tired and saggy. HELLLLP!!!

Are there any other causes/solutions that you are aware of (short of concealer, he's not down with that!)

Thanks

I would try eyeslices. It's like minispa treatment, but not too girlie for a guy yah know. They alleviate dark circles, puffiness, and soreness. Plus their resuable!

Get a doctor to take a blood test if you are worried about dark under eye circles! I have had them my entire life but it turns out (after I had been telling my doctor for years) that I -am- anemic! Dark circles are normally a sign of iron deficiency! I started taking supplements and now it's obvious when I don't take them because it helps so much with my skin!

I have been using Liz Earle daily repair eyecream for almost 6 months,I can see an improvemrnt in the condition of my skin and my eye bags look like they have improved.

For average under-eye circles/morning puffiness, I think keeping aloe vera gel in the fridge so it's nice and cold, is a life saver! Just dab some under ur eyes right when you wake up. It helps refresh ur under eyes sooo much
