When you look at the mirror, you look tired and ill due to the two big "panda eyes" on your face. How distressed! It seems useless for you to apply very thick foundation powders to hide your dark eye circles. You promise to sleep early this evening, but you work overtime again. In this article, let’s go over some useful tips to prevent eye circles.

Believe it or not. Too many women are used to applying skin cream to the eye area instead of eye cream. In fact, it is harmful to the delicate skin around the eyes that will lead to fat granules easily. Skin cream will enlarge the skin pores around eyes and produce pigments due to chemical precipitation, causing dark circles.
2. Don’t ignore nose diseases.
For those who are working in a air-condition room, they get cold so frequently that can easily cause allergic rhinitis and nasosinusitis. Nose diseases will slow down blood circulation around eyes, especially when you xing nose. Also, blood vessels around eyes are tiny and delicate. Dark circles are formed easily due to the breaking of tiny vessels. It is the most difficult to remove dark eye circles of this type.
3. Be aware of endocrine changes
With all the changes taking place in a woman's body during stages like pregnancy, menstruation and menopause, this will make dark circles more prominent. In the meantime, overtiredness or lack of sleep will also affect autonomic nerve system and impede blood circulation, leading to dark circles under eyes. Try to get sufficient sleep and rest every day.
4. Heat and Cold Therapy & Massage Therapy
A balanced diet and exercise are helpful to reduce dark under-eye circles as they are beneficial to strengthen heart & lung function and enhance blood circulation. Besides a healthy lifestyle, we could make use of massage therapy and heat & cold therapy to fight dark circles. Massage acupoints around eyes gently can help stimulate nerves and speed up blood circulation, while heat & cold therapy eliminate vein stasis and reduce the appearance of blood vessels.

Then soak towel in cold water and apply to your eyes for 1 minute. It is a simplest hot & cold therapy to make dark circles away by contracting tiny blood vessels around eyes.
