Remedies For Dark Circles

* An instant dark circles remedy is to use the correct concealer. The shade should be lighter than your foundation. If circles are very dark, choose 2 shades lighter. Great choices can be Revlon New Complexion Concealer, Estee Lauder Smoothing Skin Concealer, Cover Girl Smoothers Concealer, or Neutrogena Smoothing Skin Stick.

* Apply a good Vitamin K cream. Vita-K Solution gel or Peter Thomas Roth Power K Eye Rescue help strengthen capillary walls around the dark circles to make them less visible.

* One should go for laser treatment only if the case is chronic. Lasers can increase production of collagen thereby thickening skin to make dark circles less visible.

* Home remedies for dark circles can include the following:
1. Drink plenty of water to combat dehydration.
2. Wear at least SPF 30 sunscreen to prevent more sun damage.
3. Get enough sleep.
4. Leave cold teabags, cucumber or potato slices, or washcloths with ice cubes on eyes for 15 minutes regularly.
5. Take iron supplements if anemic, but consult your doctor first.
6. Identify the allergens and avoid them. Whether it be pollen, food, whatever, avoidance is the best solution to this. And avoid rubbing your eyes.

* Hylexin is the first dark circles eye cream developed for serious dark circles. Featured in several magazines such as Marie Claire, FashionWeekDaily, The Wall Street Journal , Star and Luck.

* One of the greatest remedies for dark circles is Arbonne's NutriMinC® RE9 Repair. It’s a corrective puffiness and dark circles eye cream that does additional benefits – firming, moisturizing and repairing the delicate tissue around the eye.

But I would definetly say, get some inexpensive

Any ways to ACTUALLY get your hair to grow?

Question by Caroline Marie: Any ways to ACTUALLY get your hair to grow?
I feel like my hair hasn't grown in two years. My hairdresser says it has, but it doesn't feel like it.
Does anyone know any little tricks to get it to grow? And do fish oil pills/biotin actually work? Cause I took both for a little and didn't really see results. I've never colored my hair, but I have gotten it relaxed. I want like four more inches. At leaasttt two.
Okay thanks for any help! :)


Best answer:

Answer by Gloria
Getting your hair relaxed can actually damage your hair enough for your hair to break which causes your hair to look the same length. Just try not to do anything relating strong chemicals for a while and you'll start noticing the difference on growth. You can always take a vitamin supplement to make sure it's healthy.

What is the best way to grow longer hair?

Question by Meghan Andersen: What is the best way to grow longer hair?
Last year I chopped my hair off and I liked the look of it. But now I really wish I didn't do that and my hair hasn't been growing. I have been taking biotin. What are other ways besides pills?! Any homemade ideas?! I want my long hair back!!


Best answer:

Answer by Samantha
The first tip is to try not to damage your hair. Use heat on it as little as possible. Damaged hair takes longer to grow. Also, trim it regularly. Again the dead ends will slow down the growing process. Deep condition your hair once a week and drink lots of water. You just have to keep your hair healthy and the faster it will grow.

Is there any possible way to make hair grow back faster?

Question by DC: Is there any possible way to make hair grow back faster?
Ive always had long hair and i just started college where i play soccer. We had to cut our hair really short and im trying to find a way to grow it back as fast as possible.. Any suggestions?


Best answer:

Answer by AngelaSD
There is a vitaimin supplement called - Hair, Skin, and Nails. It has all the necessary nutrients that are needed to help make your hair grow, and stay shiny, skin smooth and clear, and nails long and strong. If you plan on going to the health food store to buy them check out the label, and compare it to a regular multi vitamin, which also contains many nutrients that we need every day. I say this, because I use to take the H,S, N product, and I ran out, but still use a MV and my nails are longer than ever, and they have stayed stronger and longer for a longer amount of time.

Back to your hair... it is also good to know that your hair grows the fastest and most when we have more daylight hours. Which is now, during the summer! This should stay the same until probably October when it slows down for the shorter winter months.

Best answer:

Answer by [R4D] I'm too rad
Well, there are two easy solutions.

1. Rub cocoa butter on.
2. Tanning bed.

Being darker means they are less visible but cocoa butter is used to remove stretchmarks from a woman's pregnancy. Usually it works also for other things other than pregnancy.

Give that a shot :)

Is it a bad idea to take collagen supplements if your 16?

Question by gjgfojgog: Is it a bad idea to take collagen supplements if your 16?
This is what the vitamins say:



The main reason for the formation of fine lines, wrinkles and the appearance of ageing is the depletion of collagen in the skin. Collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body and as we age we start to lose our natural supply.

Super Collagen™ with added Vitamin C is from 100% pure pharmaceutical collagen which works skin deep and may combat this loss to plump up the skin and reduce the appearance of fine lines. Collagen has been scientifically proven to improve nail and hair health and users report their nails become less brittle and their hair glossier and thicker.

This exclusive system contains a food grade collagen supplement formula. When used as directed, it may help in the reduction of frown lines, crows feet and nasal labial lines as it can help stimulate natural collagen production.

Other benefits include the promotion of elasticity in connective tissue, blood vessels to improve circulation and a glowing complexion. It has the ability to cleanse/detoxify the body, which in turn starts the whole process of progressive regeneration.

Answer by Cornelia
Still 16. Improve your body in the most natural way. And again, still 16. You probably and absolutely don't have wrinkles. Fruits or Vit C supplements are fine if you want healthy skin.

how to grow long and thick relaxed hair without going natural?

Best answer:

Answer by Lizi
Someone keeps giving me thumbs down for suggesting henna all the time, but I'm doing it anyway!

Using body art quality henna on your hair will help thicken it, strengthen it (which will help it grow without breaking), soften it, smooth it, and relax it. There are multiple mixtures depending on what your hair color is. Its all-natural and won't damage your hair.

Everything you need is at www.hennaforhair.com, including different mixtures. I guess some people don't like it because they buy stuff at the store that says "all-natural henna" when it's actually laced with harsh metals that can melt your hair. I do NOT get my henna like that. That's why its referred to as "body art quality henna." I've been using it for 2 1/2 years and never had a problem with it.

EDIT: Sur La Mer, body art quality henna is not dangerous at all. "Boxed hennas," or premixed henna, is laced with harsh metals that will MELT hair, and are NOT to be used. I adamantly caution people against those types, which I have already stated. All natural henna, is just a crushed leaf, and not dangerous or toxic.

EDIT...AGAIN: Google "henna for hair warning" and it comes up with wanrings for COMPOUND henna, this is not the same thing as body art quality henna.
