View Full Version : any way to get rid of dark circles under your eyes?
RaceCarRiot 03-14-2003, 10:55 AM ...other than sleep? :lol: seriously. i'm so busy with work anymore, it seems like no matter how much sleep i get (i still manage 7-8 hours pretty regularly at the expense of having a life), i still look like ed norton when he visits the doctor in fight club.
Nick Nolte recommends laying off the 3 day coke and vodka benders.
shinta-wrx- 03-14-2003, 10:57 AM put ice on em. It actually works if you have baggage under ur eyes.

But you will be ghey for using make-up.

Surgery to put a layer of fat between skin and dark blood vessels - $2-3K/eye !!!
RaceCarRiot 03-14-2003, 11:23 AM i don't think lack of sleep is the issue...i think it's just being overworked. i'll try throwing ice on them for a while to see if they go away...
chick stuff is an option...as long as it actually DOES something to make it go away, and isn't a foo foo cover up...i'm sure there's a less fruity off the shelf equivalent you can get at target or something. i don't give a damn, i'm secure. :D i just want results.

Cjchaps 03-14-2003, 11:39 AM IN one of my men's health I got a free sample for dark-circle stuff for guys. I don't remember what it was called, but they do make the stuff for men.
e_a_olson 03-14-2003, 11:44 AM See a physician. Concealers don't address the root cause of your dark cirlces. It's most likely a health/wellness issue. You have too much stress in your life, and you need to manage it better. That may mean more sleep, yoga, meditation, healthier eating habits, etc. These changes are all difficult, but at least you're not wearing make up.

also helps even out the distribution... you'll have a dark circle over your eye too

Seriously, no real "quick fixes" out there besides getting more rest/sleep. I'm sure you've heard of the old girlie trick of putting cucumber slices on your eyes before turning in at night (they even sell faux cucumber patches at your local drugstore). Not sure if they work but guess it's worth a shot if you're really self-conscious, pretty boy! ;)

People will think you're dark and mysterious.

Check with your practitioner.

Use the Hillary Clinton method. Get plastic surgery then lie about it later on if anybody asks.
Amazake 03-15-2003, 09:19 AM i suffer from rings around the eyes. i was told by a dermatologist to use either.
lab series eye treatment formula or :( clinique all about eyes i woula have to say the clinique works better. what i do is buy it when filene's or macy's is having a promo and then give all of the free make-up to a girlfried or family member.
