Dark Circles and Eye Bags

Dark Circles and Eye Bags

The number one complaint of women over 45 is not wrinkle. You may be surpised to find out that the number 1 compaint is dark circles around and under the eyes. These dark circles are often accompanied by eye bags or puffy eyes. The puffiness is caused by the very same of the dark circles. It is excess blood that tends to pool under the eye. This excess blood is what causes the dark circle and eye bags.

Getting Rid of Dark Circles

We have had people tell use that they stand on their heads, they massage the eye areas to stimulate the stagnant blood flow and they even ice their eyes to reduce the puffines. While all of these may provide short term relief it is more important to look at a longer term approach.

Results From Anti Wrinkle Creams

Specific ingredients are what makes creams so effective. However most creams use a very small amount of the active. They do this to keep their cost down and they do this to keep the effects of the cream minimal but visual. This is so that you will keep buying the cream with results taking longer to happen. A cream would be much more effective using a very high amount of proven actives. For example Haloxyl is proven to reduce dark circles. However most companies use Haloxyl the lowest recommended percentage. When Haloxyl is used at the higher 5% recommendation it can be 7 times more effective. Why 7 times more when it is only 5 times more concentrated. This higher concentration allows creams to become more effective by alleviating the problem rather than toying with it. Results come much quicker. Look for higher percentage actives and you will see faster results.
