    Default Baggy Eyes

    Any suggestions to give the illusion that I don't have baggy eyes? Or a solution would be fantastic!

    It's almost like there's not enough fat under my eyes. And it's placed way under neath where I thought normal bags were. Not sure how else to describe it lol but I do get heaps sleep and drink lots of water. Not sure what gives, but I look forever tired.

    A lot of people get fillers to "plump up" this area as they age (having said that I know ppl who are young and have done it to get a fuller kind of look). If there are any cosmetic clinics in your area I'd hit up their web pages/give them a call because it's a great solution and depending on the individual it lasts up to 6 months +. It probably won't help with the discoloration, if you have any (the typical sleepy purple bags we all get after a big night lol), but it will give you a fuller, less tired look if that's what you are looking for.

    Your are high up. I would try laser or ipl at this point instead of fillers. I did this years ago when my eyes weren't that bad and it helped tremendously.

    my sis gave me this easy tip. don't know how well it will work for you and it is only a temporary fix but made me look much better: mix lemon juice (fresh) with tomato juice (from freshly cut tomato) and dab some under your eyes with a pinky finger. it will make the skin taut and lighter in color. hope that works if you want a quick (but temp) fix!

    If you go outside in direct sunlight or tilt your head up inside does the discoloration go away? If so, the dark circles are due to the hollow under the eye. A filler can plump it up, but there are also permanent solutions via surgery.

    I too have this problem and after doing research have decided that restylane is right for me. In my area it only costs about $500 from a reputable surgeon and can last up to a year. Obviously prices vary from area to area. If you decide to go this route make sure you get injected by an experienced surgeon. There are risks to getting it done (like discoloration of tissue, loss of eyesight) so make sure the person KNOWS what they are doing and has the skills to back up that knowledge.

    Aside from facial fillers... which are your best option. A light colored powder under the eyes goes a long way toward hiding them if properly applied.
    I've got the same issue.

    That's you in the pic right? I think you're beautiful! How is your diet? A healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables does wonders to your skin. Drinking a lot of water will help, too.

    Man, I was hoping there was a way to cover with makeup. My under eyes are hollow it seems. Thank you all!

    i actually love that look. i think it works for you. but i know what you mean by looking forever tired, and if you aren't into zombied out (i find this discourages men and evangelists from talking to me in public), then juvederm is going to be your best solution. and if you're young, it could be a 3-4 times a year thing.

    goss has a video on youtube about covering dark circles. give his method a try.

    I had a similar problem. If it bulges out, you could go to a surgeon like I did to have the fat removed- my eyes look AMAZING now- or if it caves in, use fillers. If they've been like that all your life, it's probably not dietary and is just how your face is shaped, but using really cheap tea bags on your eyes or the Canadian version of Preparation H on your lower lids can totally eliminate undereye darkness. Try not to rub them, because the darkness is often caused by broken capillaries.
