Dark Circles are BASTARDS! I am a Purple Panda FFS!

[PinotsKittens]

Is there anything than can do done to get rid of the purple panda look?

Do what the woman we saw by the pool in Tenerife earlier this year did.....sunbathe for every waking hour of every day for 10 days with your sunglasses on.

OK, you'll still be a panda but the tan will make the panda eyes look whiter rather than purple

The highlight of DD and DSs evening was to see 'Panda Woman' (as they nicknamed her) without her sunglasses on. Honestly I've never seen anything like it

Try drinking lots and lots of water or a vitamin k cream en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitamin_K.

It can also be hereditary .... so stock up on concealer?

Pinot!

Touche Velouté by By Terry (from Space NK) here

It is brilliant - I have purple shadows and this is the o9nly thing which covers them. It is rather expensive but lasts for ages, and I wear it every day.

Don't listen to anyone who recommends YSL Touche Eclat. It's a highlighter, it will just make the shadows lilca and shimmery.

I have that my chick - and it's ossom, but when I am being slovenly (a lá today) I look evil, like I have a batman mask on.

Croissant - ha! I like the idea of no-shadows-by-stealth! Maybe I could concoct a radical hair-do to distract the eye?!

keep your face tilted up at all times

i was in the hairdresser yesterday - facing forward/up i looked fine

when he said "look down pls" a haggard skull-like creature peered back at me

nicht gut

apply a good concealer in a triangle section of your undereye, from inner eye,down side of nose and back up to outer corner. MUCH more efective than colouring in shadow alone

oioi group on

glycloic peels

anyone

glycolic? i like that stuff

what where when

oh gosh am tempted

they have goodybags and everything...

My woman tried to get me to ahve peel. I politely declined

why did you decline?

i have hard core glycolic serummy stuff but think avon are discontinuing it makes skin all even and glowy and non-spotty

A mild glycolic peel would be good for you, or some laser photo-rejuvenation. I've just had my first peel and thought it was fab. Your skin doesn't actually peel off or anything, it just refreshes your skin. I think a course of those would be fab. Laser rejuvention does atually reverse sun damage so is v healthy.
"

how long? the rest of the summer??

am really really tempted...will we go together and hold hands while our flesh melts away...??

DON"T!!!! Friend had one did look good but she has to wear block now all the time can never forget and she had it last year.Quite a lot of red and peeling though before you get the new skin look.It looks very sore

this is a MILD ONE though
it says you might look a tiny bit red but can have in lunch hour

A mild burn then

Ask Leah H she's had EVERYTHING done

@ peel. Steady on.

cybboid This triangle - intriguing. Do I go down as far as my nostrils? Can you talk me through it as if you're talking to an idiot

oh christ really?? i can't be doing with that, halloween's not for ages

it says it will leave the skin peachy...

I think peels are for resurfacing of scarred skin really and fine lines etc.You can achieve the same with exfoliation and good moisturiser. Peeled skin ages quicker in the end as it is thinner.
