What are dark circles and why it occurs?
If you already do not know, the skin under your eyelids is
referred to as ‘periorbital skin’. One of the most interesting facts regarding
this part of your face is its thickness; 0.5 mm, which is way thinner than that
of the skin covering the rest of the part of your body; which is 2mm thick on
an average. As a result, sometimes the blood vessels beneath the periorbital
skin appear clearly as compared to other body parts. The appearance of internal
blood vessels through the periorbital skin tends to look darker, which is known
as ‘dark circles’.
Why do dark
circles look dark?
Now you may be wondering why the blood vessels under your
eyelids appear dark, when the color of those vessels is red in real. Well, the
skin tissue only allows blue/violet waves to pass through it, leading the eye
bags to appear dark or bluish. Depending on the color of your skin, these dark
circles vary in terms of their appearance. While for people with darker skin
tones, veins would appear brownish, in case of fair skinned people, the same
would appear to be dark red. In order to hide your dark circles, find makeup artist in Australia who can
do the job for you.
What causes
dark circles?

population, caused by numerous reasons. Here are few of the reasons that might

genetic characteristic passed on to next generation by none other than their
own parents. So, if you have dark circles, may be your gene is responsible for

sleep
Do you stay awake the entire night to see the sun come out
of the horizon? In that case, dark circles would be your companion. Lack of
appropriate sleep promotes the prevalence of circles under your eyes.
Oversleeping
If you thought you could reverse the effects of
sleep deprivation by sleeping for 14 hours in the weekend, then you would be
disappointed. Dark circles also appear because of oversleeping habits. So, it
is always better to sleep for 8 hours in order to avoid any health issues.
