RevitaLume

Applying cool cucumber slices to the eyes has long been a method of treating dark circles. RevitaLume is an under-eye serum that contains both synthetic and natural ingredients, one of which is cucumber extract. RevitaLume helps eliminate dark circles, and strengthens the small blood vessels (capillaries) that are found very close to the under-eye skin surface, so that the dark circles do not return.
Olay Total Effects Eye Transforming Cream
-
This eye cream uses vitamins and minerals, as well as cucumber extract and aloe vera to both reduce the appearance of dark circles and to eliminate them and prevent reoccurrence. It is relatively inexpensive, and can be purchased in many retail stores.
Concealers
-
Many makeup companies, such as Maybelline, Cover Girl, Almay and Revlon, among others, manufacture concealers whose purpose is to diminish the appearance of dark circles under the eyes. These come in either liquid or stick form, and can be found wherever makeup is sold. They contain ingredients that lightly coat the under-skin, adding a lighter shade of color. This causes the circles to be less noticeable.
