Dark, hollowed underyes are a common concern for millions of people around the world. The skin under your eyes is so thin, that healthy blood vessels are oftentimes visible regardless of age. Dark circles appear in a variety of colors, each signaling a different cause and requiring various treatments.

| Brown Circles | A brown-ish hue will appear under the eyes as the result of uneven skin tone and high melanin production. | Common Causes: Uneven skin tone, Thinning skin, Allergies, Dull skin and Adult acne. |
| Blue + Brown Circles | Most common form of dark circles. | Common Causes: All above factors listed. |
The delicate area around the eyes requires more attention. Neglecting this important area can cause premature lines and wrinkles as well as dryness. Using targeted and gentle skincare treatments, formulated specifically for the eye area, is crucial. This will keep the area nourished, hydrated, brighter and give it an overall healthier look. Using eye care products with Broad Spectrum SPF is key to protect the area from further UV exposure and sun damage.
