I have dark circles.
I assume “most” of it from recession in my infraorbital area, and just my bone structure which causes extra tear trough and darkening in the under eye area.
Although since I am ethnic, I have more hyperpigmentation in my under eye area which I assume exaggerates the darkness 100x.
I’m just looking to minimize the hyperpigmentation and lighten the area more so it doesn’t look as bad.
Does anyone know how to minimize the darkness / dark circles?
I’ve seen a lot of advice online just saying to use caffeinated under eye serums, but I’m not sure if it works. Might experiment, then post results.
There are also other things people apply to fix, like hydroquinone or high strength Vitamin C serum but I have no clue if this works, and I wanna be careful to not fuck up the most sensitive part of my skin.
I have hypothesized already that since I am underweight and very low BF, it is causing more under eye darkness than normal due to maybe me suffering from certain nutritional deficiencies, so I’m working towards gaining more weight.
For anyone with the same issues as me, let me know what worked for you, or what I should do.
