What are dark circles

Dark circles are grooves that appear under our eyes due to various factors. Many people have them, fixed or temporary, and they don't have to always be caused by lack of sleep. They appear because the skin around the eye is the most fragile and thin that we have in the body. It is five times thinner than the rest of the face, which in turn is five times thinner than the body. This means that we have to take care of it with care and very well and for this, the natural elements and the own mother Nature they will be of great help to us.

Causes of the formation of dark circles and bags

Although both appear in the same area and share that they have the peculiarity of making a face very ugly (and giving a feeling of fatigue), dark circles and bags are not the same thing, nor do they have to have the same causes, so their The way to treat them will not be identical.

The first cause is the hereditary factor. These are the most annoying, because we have them over time even though our habits are the healthiest. Over the years and with the lack of sleep, they increase, but we already had them "standard". If your ancestors have them, it is probably the cause of yours. Although they can be unsightly, they are not a symbol of poor health, dark circles are rarely related to serious diseases, although they are related to fatigue.

These dark circles are more permanent over time and, although there are tricks to hide them, it is difficult to make them disappear completely, but we can greatly improve them with these natural methods.

Another cause is lack of sleep. If we have slept little, if we went out to party the night before or suffer from insomnia, it is normal for the mirror to show us a haggard and bruised face the next morning. But we can also make them disappear or hide them easily. No more going to work looking tired after a night of staying up later than we should have! If we have not slept well, this sensitive skin swells and sleeping little makes the blood vessels dilate, which will make them darker and ugly.

Women can also suffer them if we have menstruation and when we are pregnant. Another relatively common cause is that they appear due to some type of allergy that causes the vessels around the eyes to dilate. In these cases, once we alleviate the symptoms of allergies, the dark circles will also disappear.

As we get older, our skin becomes thinner so inevitably our dark circles will be larger. But taking care of yourself and being handsome is not at odds with age.

Lastly, dark circles can cause them certain diseases, so if you have suddenly appeared large dark circles and you feel weak, it would not hurt to consult a doctor. Anemia or lack of iron helps make them look darker.
