Even if the packaging promises otherwise. But you can tackle the cause of puffiness and reduce or camouflage dark circles! We give you the best tips as a solution against dark circles and bags!

Dark circles or bags under the eyes - where would we be without Grandma's wise advice :). This is her best tip: the 'spoon method'.

Put two tablespoons in the freezer in the evening and then place the rounded side on your eyes in the morning. It may sound a bit strange, but morning bags are almost always caused by swelling. The cold of the spoons reduces moisture and your eyes are immediately less swollen.

The most important thing in a treatment of dark circles and bags under the eyes is a healthy lifestyle. Drink plenty of water during the day, this allows waste to be better removed. Get plenty of exercise, get a healthy diet and get a good night's sleep! In any case, do not apply a (thick) cream against bags under your eyes; this can actually aggravate the fluid build-up.

What is the cause of dark or blue circles† This is mainly due to hereditary factors and the aging (thin and slackening) skin. Anti-aging products or natural-aging, as we prefer to call it, are always a good choice in this case. In addition, dark circles can also be caused by a deficiency of certain nutrients such as iron, potassium and B vitamins.

1. Get enough sleep; a good night's sleep is the best remedy for bags under the eyes and dark circles.
2. Put two spoonfuls from the freezer on your eyes in the morning and your bags or puffiness will disappear like snow under the sun.
3. You can also keep your face mist in the fridge. This cool product speeds up your blood circulation and therefore helps with dark bags and a 'puffy' face. †Camille en Lavender facial spray are mild enough for the eye area).
4. Ensure an adequate intake of potassium, vitamin B and iron. Vitamin C is also important for healthy skin and ensures better absorption of iron.
5. Drink plenty of water. Limit the intake of caffeinated drinks, alcohol and sugar.

Camouflage dark circles, concealer

Finally, you can camouflage dark circles with a concealer. We recommend Cream Foundation for this . This top-rated concealer provides hydration and a beautiful skin texture all day long. Always choose a shade that is one tint lighter than your own skin tone. Apply the concealer by dabbing it onto dark or purple-blue circles under your eyes. For bags caused by fat or fluid retention, it is better not to use makeup, as there is a risk that the bags will actually be accentuated.

You keep your skin in natural balance, without damaging it in the long term. You are guaranteed to be happy!
