Model Tip: Dark Circles Under the Eyes
Dark circles under the eyes are an occasional problem for many of us, and a relatively permanent problem for some of us. Models have of course come up with a way to combat this, as I documented in the Modeling TIps section of my website:
Puffy Eyes
For years, a secret among models has been to use Preparation H for emergency relief from puffy eyes and dark circles -- really bad idea. This is kind or like using hydrocloric acid for a face peel -- didn’t exactly work for the Phantom of the Opera. A far better alternative is to use teabags and ice water as compresses. Select a strongly caffeinated tea like plain old black tea (Lipton’s etc.). Moisten the teabags with ice water and place them on the eyes as compresses. Relax for 10 minutes.
But now Garnier has come up with a great little product that does the same thing (caffeine included), without the mess, the Garnier Skin Renew Anti-Puff Eye Roller. I've tried it and it works great.
You can find more information about the product on the Garnier website:
