Omg same! It's a pain in the ass. Usually I just use a bit of coverup on the dark areas.

Me too but all cover-ups (concealers) look weird on my skin. I am not a match to anything!

Me too! But I tried garnier frutic sheer eye concealer and its brilliant! There's also a one that is tinted for full coverage but I wanted a brightening one;)

Hi chava and jenessa I have a wonderfull remedy to cure dark circles. 2 actually.

first mix 2 table spoons gram flour. I teaspoon turmeric powder, 1 table spoon almond oil and gradually add milk to make a pasty consistency. add this under your eyes or even all over your face as a mask. leave on for 20 mins then wash.

second, extract the juice from a potatoe and cucumber into a bowl. ( you can do this by grating the potatoe and cucumber then pressing it down into a strainer to get the juices out) chill the juice then soak a cotton pad in the juice. place this on your eye and leave on for 15-20 mins.


for your sleeping problem, my mother had the same issue. get a organic lavender spray and spray your pillow with it before bed. or just get a lavander filled pillow if you can. also you can Choose gentle yoga or stretching, not vigorous power or ashtanga yoga, which could energize you instead. Try easy yoga stretches in bed followed by simple meditation. Close your eyes and, for 5 to 10 minutes, pay attention to nothing but your breathing.

Yes, You have to take at least 7 hours of sleep. Take a less stress. Drink at least 8 glass of water during a day. Consume fresh fruits. Apply cucumber or potato slices to remove dark circles.
