Working long hours at the office or having sleepless nights leaves our eyes looking dark and dull. Trust us, this is one of the most common concerns for men so you are not alone.
Puffiness and eye bags are common with ageing as the tissues around your eyes become thinner, with this blood vessels also becoming more visible which affect the area below your eyes to darken and contribute to loss of firmness in the skin.
What are the most common causes of dark eyes?
Lack of sleep: Sleeping less than 7 hours can result in the appearance of dark eyes, the impact of your blood vessels dilating create the dark tint to appear. Lack of sleep causes fluid to build underneath your eyes causing them to appear puffy, as a result the dark circles you see may actually be shadow cast by your puffy eyelid. We recommend our Ultimate Under Eye Serum for brightening eye bags.
Eye strain: Excessive screen time from devices such as phones and computers can exhaust your eye muscles. This strain can cause blood vessels around your eyes to enlarge. As a result, the skin surrounding your eyes can darken.
Allergies: congestion and inflammation from allergies result in causing tint under the eyes. This is due to allergies symptoms being irritated eyes or nasal congestion caused by indoor allergens like dust or outdoor allergies like hay fever. It is advised specifically for irritated eyes to avoid itching and rubbing as it can worsen your allergic shiners.
Sun exposure: Love being outdoors? Sun exposure can also create pigmentation underneath your eyes as the skin in this area is more sensitive. Sunlight produces more melanin in the body and if not protected it can be prone to discoloration that is why the usage of SPF is important to apply for sun protection as well as protective eyewear.
