dark circles are a problem for everybody and sleep is a critical factor that's a really good point. however there are other things that people also do to make dark circles and discoloration around the eyes. i have noticed that people who have allergies who tend to rub their eyes a lot will also have dark circles. so you have to be aware of how much you are touching your eye. otherwise it's really a matter of managing your stress getting enough sleep and drinking enough water because dehydration will also cause that change there. there's two different components that can cause discoloration around the eye. one is pigment. that's what gives your skin color. the other is blood supply. so when you have a change in either or both of those two you see that change around the eye. the skin around the eye is very thin so you notice it there before you see it on other parts of the face or body and that's just a very sensitive area. the only thing you can really do is get a good concealer. hope your kids grow up fast and learn to sleep through the night or maybe close the door tighter. as long as your kids are safe and you know they are okay i think that a little bit of discussion with your children about their sleep patterns if they are old enough might also help but you really have to get enough sleep. there is just no other way around it.
my kids don't sleep through the night so now i have dark circles around my eyes. what can i do to minimize them?
