Hi Trix & all,

Thanks for all the info. Of course I was fascinated with how to remove dark circles since I get them every once in awhile. I did some research as well as talking to a woman I know who is a nurse for a plastic surgeon. Here is what she said the doctor recommends for undereye darkness and circles:

Peter Thomas Roth Power K Eye Rescue. It is a cream that contains: Vitamin K combined with Vitamin C, Kojic Acid, and other antioxidants. It is a new eye cream that is specifically formulated to reduce the appearance and ultimate eliminate undereye circles. Although concealer works just as well, for people who want to eliminate the circles she said the Peter Roth works very well. It is generally available at high end department stores although it is not cheap. You apply it 2x a day in the morning and evening. The cream also helps reduce bags and sags as well as dark circles.

I am still researching all natural treatments but I found this very interesting. I have heard good things about Peter Thomas Roth so this is even more interesting.

However, concealer as you found...also works great.

Best wishes,
Karen

Karen,

Where can you buy this Roth cream? I would love to try it since I have never figured out how to do a good job w/ concealers. I am a total makup klutz.

Thanks.

Hi,

Yes....sorry...it is very expensive...unfortunately. I guess that is why the plastic surgeon recommends it. :-)

You might try Sephora. They carry the line in some locations and sometimes they have big sales.

I am checking into some other creams that may not cost as much.

Best wishes,
Karen

Would a generic K cream work instead? That might be an option without the big price tag? Also, I have heard that Preparation H will shrink bags. Anyone try that?
