A good eye cream is hard to come by, especially if you’re looking for an all-natural formula. Skincare experts prefer natural eye creams because of their skin-healthy ingredients that nourish and repair the skin without irritating or harming it.
“The under-eye area is one of the thinner areas and is easily neglected in basic skincare,” Paul Jarrod Frank, a cosmetic dermatologist in New York City, tells Allure. “There is a strong genetic component to dark circles, which is out of people’s control.”
How To Get Rid Of Dark Circles
If dark circles are your top under-eye concern, Rachel Nazarian, a dermatologist in New York City, says that you need a good retinoid product. “With repeated use, retinol can stimulate the production of collagen, making the skin less thin and improving the dark circles. They are easy to find at the drugstore,” she explains. “Sometimes dark circles are caused by increased pigment, either from rubbing or from sun damage. The best treatment for this includes topical lightening agents such as vitamin C, kojic acid, and licorice extract. These ingredients help decrease skin pigmentation over time, ultimately resulting in the lightening of the dark circles.”
