6 Foods That Eradicate Dark Under Eye Circles

3. Avocado

The cause for your under eye circles could be as simple as that you’re dehydrated. Dehydration could be caused by certain medical conditions, the weather, or even that you’re not drinking enough water. San Diego-based holistic dermatologist and author of the book, Smart Medicine for Your Skin, Jeanette Jacknin says that one of the best ways to hydrate your body and skin is by adding avocados to your shopping list.

Now, they can either be eaten or even used as a rejuvenating face mask. Jacknin says that the nutritional fatty acids in avocado will help restore moisture and elasticity in your skin, while also encouraging blood circulation in the eye area. A simple DIY mask you can make is by combining one ripe mashed avocado with ½ cup of oats and 2 tbsp honey. Apply this on your face and chill out for 15 minutes, washing off thoroughly afterward and using a cleanser and moisturizer as usual.
