Hylexin can help you finally defeat dark circles.

If you suffer from serious dark circles under eyes it’s most likely due to heredity and bad genes. You most likely are fed up with them and have tried almost everything – including all the best concealers. Right?

My question for you is this: Have you tried Hylexin yet?

If not, I would definitely consider it. Priced at just under$100, it’s a little expensive but goes a long way. It is priced so high because it just plain works.

Hylexin is one of the ‘breakthrough’ creams that has an extraordinary formula for dark circles. It is scientifically proven to defeat dark circles, due to its ingredient, Hylexin A.

**In scientific studies, Hylexin A has been shown to help reduce hemoglobin degradation byproducts by optimizing enzymatic activity… causing the red-blue pigmentation to fade. Studies also confirm that Hylexin A actually helps strengthen the capillary matrix to help stop the “leaking”… so your orbital eye area is protected against further damage.”

Dark Eye Circles: Causes and Cures

April 6, 2009 by admin  
Filed under Dark Circles

Under-eye circles may be one of the first things you see when you look in the mirror. These black or dark circles under the eyes can be caused by many different factors, including heredity, sun exposure, allergies, lack of sleep, medications, poor nutrition, age, and hormonal changes associated with pregnancy and menstruation.

The skin under the eye is very thin, and when blood passes through the veins close to the surface of the skin, this can cast a bluish/blackish shadow to the under eye skin. Any increase in blood flow will cause the areas under the eyes to appear darker.

While heredity can be one factor for development of under eye circles, sun exposure is another. Even though tanning may make your whole body look good, it’s not good for the skin under the eyes. Too much sun can cause excessive pigmentation of the area beneath the eyes, resulting in dark spots.

Allergies are another factor that can lead to dark circles. Any skin or respiratory condition which has you rubbing or wiping your eyes will trigger increased blood flow. More blood flow to the sensitive under-eye area means a greater likelihood of dark circles.

Certain medications can cause dark circles, especially those medications which lead to blood vessel dilation. Hormonal changes associated with pregnancy and menstruation may change the color and texture of the skin, resulting in a greater appearance of under eye circles.

While all these factors can play a role in the development of dark circles under your eyes, the two most common culprits are lack of adequate nutrition and lack of enough sleep.

People with diets low in vitamins C and E (antioxidants), low in lutein, beta carotene, and zinc are likely to have dark circles. You can combat this by adding in more fruits and vegetables to your diet.

People who don’t get enough sleep are also prone to under eye circles. This can be addressed most easily by a better sleep routine. It’s best, too, to sleep on your back with your head slightly elevated for the best results.

Treating under eye circles can take some time, but here are some suggestions for doing so:

* Get proper nutrition.
* Get enough sleep.
* Avoid frequent rubbing or wiping of your eyes.
* Use a cosmetic concealing stick to hide the circles.
* Use an eye cream containing Vitamin K, which has been shown to reduce dark circles.
* Protect your skin from the sun.

Above all, focus on concealing your dark circles and doing whatever it takes to make them disappear. By focusing on concealment and the cure, you’ll be in the right place to put your best eyes forward.

Blend Products to Help with Puffy Eye Problems and Dark Circles

A great new way to get the look you want is by blending products. If you suffer from puffy eye problems and dark circles, you may want to use an eye cream plus a good concealer to do the trick. Sometimes by doubling up on your efforts, you are able to attack the problem much more effectively. A lot of beauty insiders agree, recommending 2 products for your given problem.

For puffy eye issues, try using one of your favorite best eye creams or if you don’t have one, try Garnier’s anti-puff eye roll-on. And then try one of those age-old home remedies like caffeinated tea bags to reduce morning on-the-spot puffiness.

For dark circles, try pairing one of your dark circle creams (a good one to try is Reviva Labs Vitamin K Cream – available at the best eye creams store) with a good concealer. For optimal results you’ll need two concealers: one a shade lighter than your foundation to downplay dark, blue-toned under-eye circles and it will make skin appear brighter. The other should match foundation to help cover red blemishes or broken capillaries. Use a thin makeup brush and apply the concealer to the inner- eye corners first (where circles usually are darkest) and spread it lightly outward.

Ones to try:
For Dark circles: Jane Iredale’s Delete Dark Under Eye Concealer

Jane Iredale Circle /  Delete Under Eye Concealer - #1

For puffy eyes: Bioelement’s Multi-Task Eye Creme

Bioelements Multi-Task Eye Creme

For Pimples: Tarte’s Eraser Smooth Concealer with anti-inflammatory arnica
For Dark Circles: Aveda Inner Light concealer made with reflective mica

None of these are too expensive – so have fun and mix up those perfect beauty concoctions!
