Proper Hydration and Dietary Supplements
Diet can play an important role in your overall skin health. When it comes to dark under-eye circles, the key is to drink plenty of water and stay hydrated! When your body is dehydrated, your skin can become dry, and the area around your eyes becomes sunken. This creates the appearance of dark circles under your eyes. Proper hydration plumps the skin. You'll exude a naturally youthful and healthy glow by simply drinking more water.
In addition, it is also important to eat plenty of dark, leafy greens. These are rich in anti-oxidants, which help to refresh the appearance of your skin. They are also known to play a role in cancer prevention. Sometimes your skin may need some extra help. The Eminence 8 Greens facial masque contains the essential vitamins in veggies that help to nourish your skin.
Try An Under Eye Facial
There is no replacement for a good night’s sleep, however, if you have dark circles or puffy eyes, sometimes an under eye facial treatment is all you need. This type of treatment targets the unique needs of under eye skin. At Le Petit Spa we suggest the Guinot Eye Logic treatment. It uses Hydradermie technology to fight 3 major signs of aging around the eyes: wrinkles, puffiness, and dark circles.
Anti-Aging Facial
The anti-aging facial can target the fine lines under your eyes. This may not fully reduce dark circles, however, it will hydrate the under-eye area, which can make the skin appear luminous and slightly more plump. If you are looking for a luxury anti-aging facial we suggest the Guinot Complete Anti Aging Facial. The most advanced 'anti-aging', 'skin restorative' facial from Guinot, this hands-on treatment reduce signs of aging to create firm skin and a youthful glow.
Wear An Eye Cream
At-home treatment is essential when it comes to taking care of the sensitive skin around your eyes. If you haven't already, it is a good idea to start using an eye cream, once in the morning and once before bed. An eye cream can help to keep the skin around your eyes moisturized. This helps to prevent and reduce crows feet and common 'smile' wrinkles.
We carry several different and powerful eye creams in store and online for your at-home skin care routine. We suggest the Eminence Hibiscus Ultra Lift Eye Cream. This rich, anti-aging eye cream aims to lift tired eyes, smooth wrinkles, and fine lines and reduce the appearance of dark circles. For more recommendations browse our under eye cream products online.
Use SPF Year-Round
The skin under your eyes is much thinner than the skin on other parts of your body. This makes it incredibly sensitive to chemicals, elements as well as harmful UV rays. One of our beauty hacks to help prevent dark circles is to wear an SPF all year-round. The SPF will protect the delicate under-eye area and it will also help to moisturize the skin throughout the day. We carry several SPF and sun protection products in-store as well as online.
Bonus: Get Plenty Of Sleep!
This may seem simple but many adults only get a fraction of sleep they require. Your body will reflect your sleep patterns. When you are not well rested and not getting at least 8 hours of sleep per night, your skin can appear dull. The skin under your eyes can appear sunken and dark.
