Experiencing tired, dull eyes?
Dark eye circles are when the skin beneath both eyes become darkened, giving the appearance of “panda eyes”. Dark eye circles are a problem for many people. Due to a variety of lifestyle and genetic factors, some people have a much higher chance of developing dark eye circles. Dark eye circles might make someone look tired, disinterested or unmotivated, a huge no-no in the professional scene.

What causes dark eye circles?
Lack of sleep, as well as staring at television or computer screens, can affect circulation which makes dark circles more evident. As we age, our skin also thins, becoming more translucent and letting underlying blood vessels show through, resulting in a purplish appearance.
Dark circles can be caused by many things such as:
- Stress
- Genetics
- Lack of sleep and fatigue
- Frequent eye rubbing
- Eyestrain (from computer or television screens)
- Ageing
- Medical conditions like allergies, eczema, thyroid problems and anaemia
- Smoking
- Alcohol consumption
- Skin pigmentation irregularities
