Removing dark rings

[africaking]

I have dark rings around my eyes and was hoping someone could tell me of a product to use that might clear it up, if there even is such a product, my problem is I tend to stay awake for long periods and my diet isnt the best in the world, can anyone help? P.S. Don't mention concealer as I won't wear it, I'm a guy,lol. thanks

I'm sure someone recommended Haemorroid cream  - honestly!!  Perhaps try putting tiny bit on at night to see if it helps

nothing will help if you don't sort your lifestyle. 'roid cream is said to work for puffiness, not, I think, for dark circles. If you can only do one thing and that one thing isn't to get more sleep, then try increasing your water intake

Sleep with an extra pillow - the extra height makes the fluid drain from your eyes, lessening dark circles.  Avon and Virgin Vie do a cream (not concealer!) that you rub in twice a day for a month and it lessens the darkness as well

I think you know the answer to your own question, eat better and sleep better.  Drinking plenty of water is good for your skin and should reduce dark circles aorund the eyes.  Cucumber is also cooling and reduces puffiness, as does Clinique's 'All About Eyes' gel.

maitre d' - Some time ago, I suggested 'Haemorroid Gel' for puffy eyes - but not for dark circles I'm afraid.

I would go along with natalie's suggestion for dark circles. Sleep & water is so important.

*Haemorrhoid Gel in case you want to Google!

Dark rings can be genetic, but catching up on your sleep is the best bet.

I read that if you cut a potato in half and place it under your eye, that is definately suppose to get rid of circles. Something to do with the starch in it. Please let me know if you try it and it works! goodluck
