I'm only fourteen but I have major bags under my eyes. They make me look super tired, even though I get enough sleep. I'm pretty sure they're hereditary because my dad has them too and I used to rub my eyes a lot so that might have contributed. Is there anything I can do to make them go away or a good makeup trick to hide them?


Hey babe, dark circles under the eyes can be super annoying, and trust me, plenty of girls share your problem! You're right-—they can be hereditary, so unfortunately there's not too much you can do to stop them. Unlike your dad though, you can totally get away with covering them up with some makeup!


First and foremost, make sure you're getting enough sleep-at least eight hours a night. Sleep deprivation can def give ya bags. Since malnutrition is another cause of undereye circles, make sure you're drinking plenty of water and eating a healthy diet full of fruits and veggies.


How else to banish those pesky bags? Many cosmetic brands sell eye cream that you use once a day to keep the skin around your eyes nice and firm. You can also dab some concealer on dark circles to keep them hidden and balance your eyes out with  a light coat of mascara. Don't over-do it on the concealer though, it can tend to look cakey and actually cause the bags to look even worse. A few dabs will do wonders.


Check out this great article for more info on solving this beauty prob RIGHT HERE.

Cucumbers are proven to reduce it! Tinted moisturizer instead of foundation! Sleep! Don't put a whole bunch of eyeline and rub while having mascara!

MOD MOD MOD!!!!!!! Help! i've never had that bad of prob. with acne(just a sore, red pimple every so often) but a few days ago i bought some "healing" cover-up and after 2 uses it DOUBLED in size! how can i stop this in the futre?

 

Hey girl.  Not all skin care products work for everyone.  If this so called "healing" cover up only made your pimples worse, stop using it and try something new.  Best, Kristen

MOD MOD MOD!!! I have very bad acne. I wash my face three times a day, using both facial wash and the cleansing pads. My face is also very oily, so I use the stuuf without oil. My face still doesn't get any better! I get made fun of alot, and everybody says I don't wash my face. Do you have any suggestions as to what would work?

 

Hey chicky, you should try experiment with different acne products. Proactiv and Neutrogena have great acne fighting solutions that quickly clear your face and leave it clean and fresh. A little dab of Witch Hazel might clear those bumps up too. Smile

***MOD***
Okay, I get like 9 to 10 hours of sleep every night and I drink a lot of water. But I still have theses huge brown bags under my eyes, and when I took my school photo you could see them bulging out. Is there anyway that I can get rid of these things? And my mom will kill me if I wear make-up! What do I do? Does anything at home work? I heard putting green tea bags under your eyes works, and I already used cucumbers, the cucumbers didn't help.




Hey babe,

Try the tea bags - I've heard that works well. You also might be getting TOO much sleep, so try to cut back a little and see if that helps at all.

xoxo Allie
