How to Combat Dark Circles Under the Eyes
Specifically formulated to visibly improve the appearance of dark circles, discover how #4 The Eye Crème works to achieve a nourished, brighter appearance under the eyes.
As one of the most prevalent skin concerns, dark circles under the eyes can be attributed to a variety of factors.
As the most delicate area on our face, the orbital zone is especially vulnerable to environmental damage from the sun, seasonal shifts and pollution. This makes it prone to dryness, dehydration, sagging, sensitivity and pigmentation—all of which contribute to the appearance of dark circles.
The skin around the eyes is significantly thinner than the rest of the face, making it more translucent and less supportive. This thinning allows underlying blood vessels to become more visible, accentuating dark circles and puffiness.
Genetics, too, play a significant role. Varying skin tones can cause dark circles for different reasons—those with fair skin are more prone to visible dark circles due to the translucency of their lighter skin, while those with darker skin tones may experience increased pigmentation, resulting in darker under-eye areas.
And lastly, lifestyle contributes to the appearance of dark circles, with lack of sleep, stress and dehydration all driving factors.
A Targeted Cream
Given the delicate nature of the orbital area, it's essential to use a targeted eye cream such as #4 The Eye Crème, as opposed to regular serums or creams. This dedicated eye cream is specially formulated with lightweight, soothing ingredients that boost hydration and minimise dark circles, without the heavy, occlusive components often found in face creams.
The Power of Actives
Effectively addressing dark circles requires high-performance Active ingredients that work in tandem. #4 The Eye Crème expertly combines our proprietary Peptide Complex, which refines the delicate skin around the eyes and visibly reduces dark circles, with our Soothing Complex, to fortify the skin barrier and comfort the complexion—restoring a luminous, revitalised eye area.
