Dark circles under eyes????

[fortlaud]

$2 gets you some lotion with Alpha Hydroxy's. I have the worst circles on my eyes, and it cleared them up over night

Well, thats one thing I havn't tried & for 2 bucks there is nothing to lose ; ) That hylexon crap is $100 an ounce & I doubt that it works. Thanks ; )

Thanks guys for the feedback. Chefbone, Prep H would be good for puffy eyes (after tom catting all night), but you'd need to be careful not to get it in your eyes. I doubt it would do anything for the circles---PH temporarily removes moisture/water locally.

Columbia/Kian & Burn...there probably is something to the allergy issue. This past week I looked into panel tests for food & blood allergens & the problem (in addition to the expense---insurance usu doesn't cover this) is that there is considerable difference of opinion as to whether either test accurately predicts how your body is reacting to things INSIDE it. Long story short---after doing a crapload of reading about the reliability of the allergen tests (blood & skin prick)---its likely not worth it. I've been told milk &/or wheat might be the problem before, but have cut both out for several weeks on multiple occasions & noticed no difference.

My apologies for being slow to get back to you guys---I downloaded a "helper" app & my email has been screwed up for over a week. So ya'll don't think I'm an ass----karma for all ; )

Burn., I'll post a follow up if I find out anything else. Take care

Burning inside (or OP): where are these dark-circle-clubs? I suffer it too and funny enough tried the cheeck-fat-pushing thing in the mirror at the gym yesterday. It fixed the problem. Go figure. Plastic surgery is not an option for me b/c I am prone to keloids though.

Where are these clubs?

Dude I have suffered with this shit since I was 16. I have been on many different diets and have tried many different supplements. The only thing i have gathered from reading plastic surgery messageboards and getting involved in dark circles clubs online, is that the cause of these circles (not the puffyness if you have that) is what that hylexia product you mentioned says the cause is, which is something to do with the blood vessels under the eyes, that hylexia supposedly fixes, however I've read posts from people who have tried it, and many aresaying after 3 weeks they are getting no results.

If you notice, look in the mirror, and kind of like stretch the fat from your cheeks up under your eyes, like youre giving yourself a facelift. You will notice the circles disappear. I firmly believe the only way to get rid of this shit is go see a GOOD plastic surgeon a board certified one, and ask about a lower lid blepharoplasty. Honestly nothing I have excluded from, or included into my diet over many many years has caused these things to go away even the least bit. Save up 5 grand and have the surgery done.

now that sounds like a party

This may sound funny, but I know a lot of people that put Preparation H around there eyes before bed. I've seen it work on quite a few people. Hope this helps you out!!!!

Thats for baggy eyes not dark circles.
