Dark under eye circles

[Tillyscoutsmum]

Mine are awful .

Any recommendations for miracle cures please ?

TIA

Drink lots of water and invest in the Lancome Touche Eclait thingy - is far better than the YSL one.

Benefits erase paste is much better than touche eclat - plus I'm allergic to it.

The girl at the Benefits counter will trowel it on if you want to try it first.

I once read about using fenugreek and milk mixed to a paste - leave on for 10 mins. It did seem to be working, but DH couldn't stand the smell.

Ok thanks. I use YSL one atm - will head to Boots to try Benefits and Lancome ones

What on earth is fenugreek ? [dumbass emoticon] Will I get it from health food places ? Or will it be with the vits at Boots ?

I drink lots of water and try and get enough sleep (as much as dd allows obviously ). I think I just have really thin skin under my eyes iykwim

Any other suggestions ?

Fenugreek is a curry spice - you get it ground in the supermarket.
I also think it's to do with the shape of your face - my eyes are deepset which apparently means you're more prone.

Hey Tilly..wedding plans agogo?
Or Benefit Boing?Works well for me..and believe me I need it..

Benefit Eyecon to help get rid.

Benifit Boing to hide.

Right - thanks all - off to Benefit counter then. Do you reckon the Eyecon will do some good in 4 weeks ?

Yes scoot Had my make up trial a couple of days ago and just noticed how dark my circles were (my specs normally hide them)

Some, it does take a while to really see the, aherm, benefits, so stick with it.

With the Boing does anyone else find you really have to smear it in, sort of dragging the skin? I think I am hiding bags but encouraging wrinkles. Am I doing it wroing?

I put it on with fingers.

pat it on.And then very gently blend with your middle finger (the one you will lose least pressure on)Otherwise you risk damaging the 'delicate under eye area'.

Eyecon all the way, I use it everyday just a smigdgyn (sp) refreshing in a morning too. Also sometimes when Im going out I will use, ooh la lift also from benefit.

try taking milk thistle supplements, it supports the liver and can fix under eye circles from the inside... they kind of mention it on here

Right - thanks all

I'm back from shopping trip with Eyecon, Boing and Milk Thistle supplements. Hopefully something will make a difference

OOH..Let us know.Esp re the Eyecon as havent tried that..

Boiing works best when you leave your finger on it for a while to melt it. I've tried everything and have finally found a combination that works for me - Moisturiser, Boiing patted on, then Body Shop minerals foundation. Takes only a couple of minutes and it's the best result I've had in 20 years.
