Try potato pack.
Grate raw potato finely. Apply some all around eyes and lie down for 10 mins.
4 or 5 days use will get rid of black circlres.

Hi Friends,
Try caster oil,apply around the eyes.It will reduce.My grand mother told me.Somebody don't like its smell. Nowadays purified caster oil is available in stores.So we use it,and get rid of black circle.

We always find our under eye skin little saggy and therefore has a darker shade than our face . Firstly ur genetic composition like if ur mom has these dark circles ,how much time u sleep and wot amount of water u consume , ur diet and ur life style all these matter ur dark circles .
you could try out ultrasonic treatments for ur under eyes
u have sha weed a product frm shahnaz which works very nicely u can apply it around ur eyes as a pack and massage it slowly in circular movements
have good sleep and try to relax ur eyes by cupping them many times in the day drink lots of water .

Hi Roja,

Radha Venkatesh is Right, Dark Circles will not disappear in thin air just with packs and creams. You need to have sound sleep. You may be having fluctuating nap times and surely you are not getting yoour complete dosage of sleep. Also check on your bowels. Drink lots of water and keep your bowels clean. Constipation is also one of the cause.

Applying Castor Oil is the best solution. Castor Oil is easily available in most of the shops today. You need to apply it everyday without fail. Raw potatoes is also a correct solution.

Remember to drink enough water to clear your bowels and have a good sleep.

I am also a beautician so will not misguide you.

What causes dark circles?
  • Heredity is one of the main reasons to suffer from dark eye circles.
  • Lack of sleep or fatigue.
  • With the preceding age the skin under the eye grows thinner and relaxes. Thus making the dark circles even worst.
  • Prolonged exposure to sunlight, especially during summer.
  • Lack of balanced diet.
  • Allergies.
  • Stress or depression.
  • Tanning can make dark eye circles even worse.
Natural Home Remedies
  • Drink at least ten glasses of water everyday. It helps you to cleanse your body impurities that will enhance to lighter the shadowy circles.
  • Yoga can also help you to get rid of dark circles. Do pranayam for at least 5 minutes everyday.
  • Massage dark circles with any cold cream before going to bed at least for 15 minutes.
  • Apply a paste of turmeric powder with pineapple juice.
  • Dip cotton balls in rose water or chilled water and keep it over the darker areas for 5-10 minutes. A chilled spoon under the darker area can also do the magic.
  • Almond oil is the excellent skin food. Massage under and around the eyes with almond oil daily for 2 weeks.
  • Apply moisturizers with natural ingredients such as avocado oil, sesame, vitamin K and Vitamin E.
  • Apply a paste of powdered almonds and milk under the eyes.
  • Cut the fresh figs into half and place them under the eye. Keep them for 15-30 minutes and rinse it with warm water. Apply some peanut oil later.
  • Try the classical home remedy. Place two thin slices of raw cucumber over your closed eyes for 15-20 minutes. You can also use thinly striped potatoes under the eyes.
  • Squeeze out a cold, used tea bag and carefully place it over your eyes for about 10 minutes. Make sure the tea doesn't get inside your eye.
  • Slurp this juice to get rid of those tainted circles. Drink tomato juice with some mint leaves, lemon juice and salt.
  • Eat food with rich vitamins and iron. Include fresh fruits and vegetables in your diet.
  • Use sunglasses while out in the sun, to protect your eyes from the harmful rays.
So, try these easy tips to get rid dark under eye circles.
