Ask and you Shall Receive: Dark Circles Under the Eyes

Susan has asked us to find a remedy for her dark circles, she says she's "always had really dark circles under my eyes, which are more apparent in the winter" and wants to know if we can "recommend some daily creams that help".

Of course we can! So as you already know, from the rest of your mail, you can buy products to hide dark circles - our old friend YSL Touche Eclat was invented for just this purpose. But you want something to fade the circles, not disguise them. I think you might be pleased with Skin Doctors Circle Clear. Skin Doctors are a cosmaceutical company who claim that their range of products are "clinical strength skincare without a prescription" and that they "power-pack (their) formulations with optimal quantities of powerful actives for truly incredible results".

Circle Clear promises to do just that. They say that it will "fade the appearance of under-eye circles in just weeks! Circle Clear is a unique combination of naturally based ingredients to help fade the appearance of ugly dark discolouration in this delicate area". It sounds worth a try - it costs €35 which might seem a lot, but in reality it's the price of a few drinks in the pub, and if it worked - well, it'd be worth it!

You can buy Skin Doctors products in Hickey's Pharmacies nationwide, and from the Skin Doctors website.
