How to get rid of dark circles on black skin?
Dark circles and bags under the eyes give the impression of a dull face. Having the eye area darker than the rest of the face is a big concern for women with black or dark skin. Who doesn't dream of an even complexion and luminous eyes?
At Beauté Herins , we know very well that the presence of dark circles is often a source of stress which can lead to a loss of self-confidence. What if we told you that you no longer need to hide your dark circles? Yes, it is entirely possible to treat them effectively and (finally) regain luminous… and refreshed eyes.
It is essential to understand that certain areas of your face are more sensitive than others. This is precisely the case for the thin and fragile skin under the eyes. Being more fragile, the slightest change will affect it before the rest of the face. Dark circles or bags under the eyes are all the more frustrating as they can have several causes.
Lifestyle, and in particular fatigue, are the main triggers. When you're tired, your blood system slows down. Black or dark skin will then tend to become darker, and sometimes even swell. An allergy, stress, alcohol and tobacco consumption or even a poor diet can lead to the same result.
Another phenomenon can be at the origin of these dark circles: the pigmentation of the skin, we then speak of pigmentary dark circles. The upper part of the eyes is usually darker than the lower part. But sometimes the pigments reach the lower part.
Although there are natural solutions, it is recommended to consult a dermatologist specializing in black skin to find out the cause of your dark circles and get rid of them effectively.
There are several methods to make your dark circles disappear naturally.
The first is to naturally activate blood circulation under your eyes. You've probably noticed that your dark circles are more visible in the morning. Cold being an ideal ally when it comes to activating blood circulation, all you need to do is place cooled objects under your eyes. The back of a small spoon left overnight in the refrigerator will do the trick. But be careful, no ice cubes! You might do more harm than good.
Many natural ingredients are also recommended for their benefits for your eye area:
For these solutions to be truly effective, it is necessary to establish a routine. You probably won't see a drastic change from the first application. By taking care of your skin morning and evening, a difference should quickly be seen after a few days (for the decongestant effect) to a few weeks (for the treatment of hyperpigmentation ).
These natural solutions can be used in addition to eye contour care. Here again, you will have to be very careful with your choice. To combat dark circles, we recommend the use of My 3-in-1 Eye Contour “Anti-dark spots, Anti-dark circles, Anti-puffiness” IN'OYA .
This treatment was designed specifically for black and dark skin. It contains baobab pulp, hibiscus, melon oil and caffeine. The treatment comes in the form of a roll-on which will allow you to massage your eye area while offering an immediate decongestant action.
Lifestyle is a determining factor in the appearance of dark circles. Avoid tobacco, alcohol and too short nights as they encourage the appearance of dark circles. Make sure you get at least 8 hours of sleep per night. After all, being rested and happy is the first beauty secret.
Another simple gesture to integrate into your routine is massaging your eye area. Simply tap gently with your fingertips, from the inner corner of the eye outwards.
Of course, Beauté Hérins remains available to assist you in choosing products suited to your skin. Do not hesitate to take a look at our online store to discover a selection of treatments formulated specifically for black, dark and mixed skin by the IN'OYA Laboratory.
