7 Foods that Keep Dark Eye Circles Away
Your eyes are the most delicate of all body parts. They are not only windows to your heart and soul but are most often a reflection of your overall health too. The skin around your eyes, for example,is also a true indicator of how well you really are health-wise.
Some of you may suffer more than others if you have dark circles so stubborn that no remedy works for them. It may not occur to you at times, but what your body could really be in need of is nourishing and vitamin loaded foods to make those menacing dark circles go away for good.
If your body is dehydrated, the vessels become prominent, turning into dark circles, while a surplus of fluid can also lead to puffiness. The factors causing this include sugar, alcohol, caffeine, aging, genetics, and insufficient sleep.
It is important to be highly conscious of what foods we consume daily, and whether they are providing our bodies and skin with all the essentials they require.
The following hydrating and mineral-rich foods are quite helpful in balancing fluids and keeping dark circles away.
1) Blueberries
We all know blueberries for their renowned benefits to our eye health. Blueberries are a significant source of the important antioxidants anthocyanins and lutein. These offer protection to your blood vessels and enhance circulation to the eyes.
The key nutrients present in blueberries are manganese, vitamins K and C, Omega-3, anthocyanins, quercetin, and lutein. The best way to consume these is to snack on a handful daily.
2) Tomatoes
As compact as tomato is in size, it packs tremendous benefits for your beauty, especially for your dark circle problems.This wonderful fruit contains impactful antioxidants, including lycopene.
These antioxidants and lycopene protect the vulnerable blood vessels around your eyes and boost their circulation. Furthermore,tomatoes help to improve the pigmentation around your eyes. You need not only eat this fruit in a variety of ways but can also extract its juice and apply it around the area of your eyes.
The presence of vitamin C, quercetin, and betacarotene are highly beneficial if you consume them daily along with your regular diet. You will see a tremendous improvement in your dark circles and your overall beauty naturally with daily consumption.
3) Celery
Celery has a high content of two electrolyte minerals, potassium, and sodium. These two minerals are strong regulators of fluid and work tremendously well in reducing puffiness. Celery stands in stark contrast to the white table salt and is a huge promoter of other nutrients uptake.
The essential nutrients that celery provides your body with include magnesium, potassium, sodium, fiber, and quercetin. You can consume celery in a variety of ways to derive the best of its benefits, including adding it to salads, meals, and snacking on a stick daily.
4) Cucumber
You will find cucumber as the star feature of many beauty products, and it works wonderfully well naturally, too. It provides ample hydration due to the high water content, contains sulfur for strengthening your skin and collagen-boosting silica.
Including cucumber as a part of your daily diet would prove highly beneficial for your overall health and will rehydrate your skin.
5) Beetroot
Beetroot contains red pigment owing to the presence of the detoxifying antioxidants of betalain. These are super beneficial for the health of your eyes and effectively keep the dark circles away. The essential nutrients present in beetroot include magnesium, vitamin C, folate, and betalain.
Your daily intake of beetroot must not be less than 85g or 3oz if you wish to experience the maximum benefits of this wonderful food.
6) Watermelon
Watermelon makes a delicious and refreshing fruit in the hot weather. However, do you know that it is also a powerful rehydrator?
Watermelon does wonders for your body and skin in terms of hydration. Around 92% of this delightful fruit contains water,including many antioxidants that are huge supporters of your eye health. The key nutrients present in watermelon include magnesium, potassium, vitamins B6, B1, and C, fiber, lycopene, and betacarotene.
The generous amount of antioxidants is bound to bring back that healthy glow around your eyes.
7) Goji Berries
Goji berries contain rich amounts of carotenoid zeaxanthin. These are powerful hydrating elements and nourish the skin around your eyes.
The most beneficial nutrients present in Goji berries include polysaccharides, zeaxanthin, amino acids, betacarotene, copper, iron, vitamins C and B, zinc, calcium, and selenium. If you consume even a small handful of Goji berries daily, you will notice remarkable improvements in your skin.

"I previously stopped using any eye cream in my skincare routine. I tried many brands, wasted a lot of money and always ended up with tiny bumps or milia seeds under my eyes! After awhile, I just resigned that eye creams were not for me.
Now I faithfully slather on this eye serum every night and wake up to brighter and younger looking eyes!"

Slight reduction in eye puffiness after just 1 application!
"The product has good texture as it is not oily and feels good on the skin, and also absorbs quickly into the skin. It's fragrance-free and has a very nice, pleasant scent. I do not have a particular preference for eye creams because none has been effective. What's great about the Eyes Lifter is that I saw a slight reduction in eye puffiness after just one application! Happy to have found a product that works!"

"I don't need a man to lift my eye bags for me when I have the Eyes Lifter! I have dark circles and puffy eye bags from working late nights and Netflix. I have seen much improvement over the last month with the Eyes Lifter. I love the fact it isn't greasy and absorbs well, so no worry about milia seeds!"
- Ruby L.

"My eye area is pretty dry and my concealer tends to cake up under my eye area shortly after applying make-up. Hence, I have been trying different eye products to find something effective in hydrating my eye area but not so rich that it causes milia seeds. After using the Auolive Eyes Lifter for the past few weeks, I really enjoy the water-based formulation of the eye serum because it is able to keep my eye area hydrated without causing milia seeds. My concealer now stays smooth around my eye area for a longer period of time, and I hope that with continued use, the results will be even more prominent!"

Is there a woman who hasn’t splashed a little water on her face and called it a night?
You should be able to simplify your skincare routine and use just a few items that allow you to look your best! For the modern woman, going through the Korean 10 step regimen daily, which takes hours to do just isn’t realistic if you have a job!
Our founder, Claire, had this exact problem. She was knee-deep in the corporate world and described at best as “haggard-looking” by her friends after a stint of long nights at the office.
And she wasn’t alone, she found that there were plenty of working women who had the exact same problem! Constant Late Nights and early mornings had started to literally show on their faces.
So after 2 years of R&D with a laboratory in Switzerland, she created Auolive, a brand that uses natural active ingredients in all its multi-functional products for the best possible results for you!
We fully believe that skincare should never be a hassle and have spent a lot of time condensing all your skincare needs into 4 simple, multiple Award-Winning products.
No Parabens, No Mineral Oils, No alcohol, absolutely Cruelty Free and Colouring free for your peace of mind. Combined with cutting edge technology in each product, every single one of our products was purpose built for the busy Modern woman on the go!
What women are saying about us...
“Auolive's products are a godsend for me amidst my busy schedule. I travel really often for work and sometimes at short notice. So I just bring Auolive products along and I know I'm set for any trip, any weather!” — Angela
