Brilio.net - Daily activities that are too busy sometimes make you stay up late at night. This habit of staying up late can cause panda eyes or dark circles and bags that appear around the eyes. This eye condition gives the impression of a face that looks tired or unhealthy. Because it gives the face a dull appearance, a number of people are looking for ways to deal with panda eyes.
But before knowing how to deal with eye bags, it would be better if you get information about the causes first. The cause of eye bags is usually caused by several factors. The first is a lack of sleep which causes changes in blood circulation around the eyes.
This condition can cause enlargement of blood vessels and the appearance of dark circles. Apart from being caused by a lack of sleep, stress can also affect eye bags. Prolonged stress can cause excessive cortisol production in the body. Cortisol can disrupt blood circulation, damage the skin around the eyes, and cause panda eyes.
That is the main cause of eye bags. In order for this problem to be resolved, the first thing you need to do is get enough sleep. Make sure to get enough sleep every night. Ideally, adults need between 7-9 hours of sleep every night to ensure adequate rest for the body and skin.
After that, do something to keep your body from stress. Find ways to manage stress effectively, such as meditation, exercise, or therapy. Reducing stress levels can help prevent panda eyes and eye bags caused by psychological factors. Apart from that, it is also important to balance it with regular external maintenance.
You can get rid of eye bags and dark circles with topical treatments. If usually the natural method that many people use is compressing with cucumber, now there are other ingredients. A beauty vlogger shared other ingredients that can be used to treat eye bags, namely coffee , turmeric, aloe vera gel and pure honey.
The antioxidant content in coffee can help reduce inflammation around the eyes, which can reduce swelling and dark circles. The caffeine in coffee can stimulate blood circulation around the eyes, helping to reduce dark circles by increasing blood flow.
Turmeric contains curcumin which can help reduce inflammation and prevent damage to the skin around the eyes. The natural whitening properties of turmeric can help reduce dark circles and give your skin a brighter appearance.
Aloe vera gel contains a lot of water and important nutrients that can help moisturize the skin around the eyes, maintaining its moisture and elasticity. The antioxidant content in aloe vera can help fight signs of aging, including wrinkles and dark circles around the eyes.
Pure honey contains enzymes and gentle acids that can help smooth and rejuvenate the skin around the eyes. The natural whitening properties can help disguise dark circles and improve the appearance of the skin.
That's the benefit of all the ingredients you can get, so how do you make it? For those of you who are curious, let's look at the steps below as summarized by briliobeauty.net from the YouTube channel @selfcarewithp, Thursday (11/4).

Honey can overcome wrinkles around the eyes.
Apart from being used to treat panda eyes, honey can also be used to prevent aging. When applied to the skin, honey helps hold moisture in the skin. This process makes the skin feel smoother and look younger. Well-moisturized skin tends to have a more supple appearance and is less prone to wrinkle formation.
Meanwhile, the presence of antioxidants including flavonoids and phenolic acids can help fight free radicals that can damage the skin. By reducing free radical damage, honey helps prevent skin cell damage and the formation of wrinkles.
