Reduce dark circles and puffy eyes caused by blue light exposure

Studies suggest that blue light exposure could be the leading cause of premature ageing and dark circles around the eyes. Since this is a relatively new stressor, the established skincare brands are struggling to come up with solutions. At Wake Skincare we have designed an effective Eye Gel, that is both suitable for all skin times and affordable!

Best Eye Cream for dark circles‘How to get rid of dark circles’ is one of the most popular skincare search queries this year. Given the current situation this is completely understandable. When we originally created Wake Eye Gel we recognised that people were increasingly staring at screens and having irregular sleeping patterns. Blue light from screens and lack of sleep are all recognised as key causes of dark circles and fine lines. It is clear that one of the side-effects of modern life are under eye bags.

So we wanted to design an effective eye cream that would target dark circles, fine lines and feel refreshing. We began by hand picking the ingredients…

Most effective ingredients for reducing dark circles

All our ingredients were carefully selected in order to be both effective and suitable for all skin types. The foundation of our Eye Gel is collagen. Collagen is a remarkable ingredient and the benefits to the skin are numerous.

Collagen is naturally produced by your body, helping with blood flow to the skin and giving you a youthful and radiant appearance. We decided to include it in our Eye Gel because over time you production of natural collagen becomes less efficient. This means that your skin loses it’s elasticity, highlighting the appearance of fine lines and dark circles. Our collagen based eye cream plumps the skin around your eyes, filling in those fine lines and making dark circles less visible.

Cucumber extract (so refreshing) and aloe vera juice (so soothing) are also involved, but we will talk about them in a later blog! So we have some amazing ingredients, but it is important to mention some of the reviews and feedback we have received, so you know what to expect.

5 Tips to Reduce Dark Circles and Puffy Eyes!

We understand that dark circles and puffy eyes can be a source of insecurity for many people, and we want to help! At Wake Skincare, it is our mission to promote positivity and make people feel good about themselves. So below are our 5 top tips for reducing dark circles and puffy eyes!

1. Try another pillow

This may seem unusual but don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. Often under eye bags and dark circles are caused by gathering of fluid. By elevating your head with an extra pillow, you can help to prevent this fluid from gathering around your eyes. This in turn will help stop the bags forming under your eyes which can make them look puffy and swollen.

2. Stay hydrated

You can never underestimate the importance of being well-hydrated. We are mostly water. In fact, up to 60% of the adult human body weight is water. Dehydration can lead to all kinds of issues with your skin, especially areas of particularly sensitive skin such as under your eyes. Therefore, if you are trying to find a solution to reduce your dark circles, a good place to start would be upping your water intake.

3. Use an Eye Gel (with effective ingredients)

Our Eye Gel was created with the intention of combating puffy eyes and dark circles. One of our key ingredients is aloe vera. This contains vitamin E and antioxidants which help to both smooth and soothe the skin around your eyes. Furthermore, it also contains anti-inflammatory properties. It is often inflammation that can lead to the puffiness around your eyes. Apply our Eye Gel morning and night and watch the skin around your eyes improve and the dark circles diminish.

4. Eat more Vitamin-C rich foods

What you eat will always have an impact on your skin. Collagen (which is also an ingredient in our Eye Gel) is vital in keeping skin looking young and feeling smooth. Fortunately, foods containing vitamin C can help your body produce more collagen.

A few examples of these foods would be: strawberries, oranges and broccoli!

5. Try to stop smoking

On the other hand, smoking has been found to have the opposite effect. Smoking decreases the amount of Vitamin C your body stores. So this will mean that your body won’t be as effective in maintaining healthy and smooth skin.
