How to Repair Dark Sullen Eyes
- 1). Make sure you are getting enough sleep and avoid prolonged situations of stress. Depression can also result in dark circles around the eyes and should be dealt with by a medical professional.
- 2). Drink plenty of water, at least eight glasses a day, as healthy skin is hydrated skin.
- 3). Protect your eyes from sun damage by wearing UV protecting sunglasses when you go outside on sunny days.
- 4). Make sure you are getting an adequate balance of vitamins. Eat plenty of vegetables and take a daily, multivitamin to avoid vitamin deficiency. B-complex vitamins, vitamin E and iron are all especially necessary for maintaining healthy skin. Vitamin C is needed for continual regeneration of the skin. Skin creams with vitamin E and vitamin C are available and can be applied around the eyes.
- 5). Achieve quick relief by covering your eyes for 20 to 30 minutes with either slices of potatoes or cucumbers, or hot soaked and cooled chamomile tea bags.
- 6). Achieve long-term relief by massaging almond oil around your eyes nightly, before going to bed. This will moisturize the skin around your eyes and restore blood flow.
