1. Eat More Salmon
Omega 3 is found in foods such as salmon and walnuts. These fatty acids improve blood circulation to the skin, which directs blood out and away from your eyes instead of pooling there and causing dark circles.
2. Limit Your Salt Intake + Drink More Water
If you remember studying osmosis in high school biology, you remember that water in your body moves from areas of more water to areas of less water. Parts of your body that are low in sodium (salt) contain more water, while parts of your body that are high in sodium contain less water. If your body doesn’t have enough water but too much salt, you can look and feel bloated and bloated. The skin around the eyes is very thin and prone to drying out. If you eat salty food but don’t drink enough water, your body will appear literally dehydrated
3. Limit Your Alcohol Consumption
Salt is not good, but it is not drying like alcohol. Do you remember your last hangover? This is why your eyes look red and puffy in the morning. If possible, limit yourself to no more than two drinks, drink plenty of water before bed and apply a night cream or heavy moisturizer after a night out.
4. Eye Massager
Regular eye massage promotes blood flow under the eye and helps prevent blood pooling in the capillaries under the eye. FOREO’s IRIS is a spa-quality eye massager that you can use at home. Apply your preferred eye cream or serum first. Turn on IRIS and set the desired intensity.
Then move the IRIS from the inner corner to the outer corner of the eye for 30 seconds (insider tip: make sure the button side is facing you). 80% of users who tried this routine experienced firmer and more supple eye contours, and 84% of users experienced increased product absorption.
Compared to those who apply eye cream or serum by hand: IRIS is doubly effective in reducing bags under the eyes 70% more effective in reducing dark circles under the eyes 43% more effective in reducing the surface of wrinkles and 51% more effective in tightening the skin under the eyes
5. Get 8 Hours Of Sleep
Nothing hides under the eyes like a full 8 hours of sleep. Get a good night’s rest – every night – and enjoy the reduction of under-eye circles. 19. Sleep on your back Since sleeping on your side or stomach gravity can work its magic, meaning fluid pools under your eyes, try sleeping on your back with an extra pillow under your head.
