Hi Rachael! Nice to have you with us and I love your nickname. Out of curiousity, what do you drink after noon?

On to the eyes. I don't suppose there's any chance you can reduce the stress and get more sleep? That's definitely the best approach On the "better living through chemistry" front, I am personally quite fond of "Baggage Handler" from Bliss Cosmetics. It's not too expensive, and you will still need a concealer to deal with discoloration. But it does a great job on the puffiness and skin nasti-ness.

Hope this helps! Good luck in any case.
Erica

PS: I have heard that hemorrhoid cream does work. I just can't get over the "ick" factor of putting it on my face!!!

Well, there are several pages here on the forums covering this in depth. However, sleep is a great remedy for getting rid of dark circles. What was the product that you used on your cruise?

Hemorrhoid creams are great for reducing the puffiness around the eyes, not so much the darkness.

Place slices of cucumber on your eyes. It will remove your dark circles and will heal if there is itching or burning.
