Which is the best eye cream for under eye dark circles?

Asked by silky1 (1510points) July 23rd, 2010

I have severe under eye dark circles that are hereditary. I can see where the veins have broken down and leak blood into under eye pools of bruised blood that form into dark circles. I have heard of several new creams that are supposed to have great results.

Sleep…I hear a green cream and Vitamin K works, but I still say, sleep.

Yeah actually I get this, I constantly look like a tired crack head, and I get burst blood vessels in my eyes. I would be very interested to know what works for people. I have tried all the natural stuff… cucumber, tea bags etc.. but it never seems to work

and I sleep plenty, I have tried everything from 12, to 8, to 6 hours sleep. Makes no difference

@Chrissi85 @silky1 Ever think it could be allergies of some sort?

No this is not allergies this is heredity. The sleep thing does nothing for my circles. I need a good product to reduce the appearance.

I don’t think it is in my case, I only suffer from hayfever when the pollen count is super high, and seeing as I live in rainy England… that isn’t very often. @silky1 if I find anything at any point that works for me I will send you a message on here and let you know, if thats ok?

Yeah that’s fine. Thanks.

Well it could be other allergies – like food allergies that cause inflammation, etc.

Okay if you get a very pastel looking green eyeshadow and lightly apply it over the dark circles then apply concealer on top of it with outh like rubbing it in too much you can reduce the appearence of it. Preperation H is great for making you look younger too, I put that under my eyes to stay wrinkle free. weird right?

Hylexin by Bremenn is good. I don’t have serious circles myself but I use it and it works for me. It is supposed to be strong enough to work on serious dark circles. It’s expensive but one little tube lasts a long time. If you try it, I’d be interested to know if it works for you. Good luck!
