Q: hii
i have really bad hereditary dark circles and nothing seems to be working.
i heard that cucumber juice (the only thing i haven't tried, although i've tried cucmber slices) is really good for getting rid of dark circles.
why? what does cucumber juice do? how long will it take to remove really bad (so bad it goes to the side, and on top of my eyelids up to my eyebrows!) dark circles?
thanks!

Cucumbers don't help fade away dark circles, although they do help calm tired/puffy eyes. What you should do is see a dermatologist. They'll be able to advise you on possible solutions.. I'm not sure exactly but you might be able to get a prescription for something (maybe a prescription cream). You do mention that it's hereditary, but here are some suggestions to at least help minimize dark circles-
an obvious one is to try getting enough sleep..
also, good nutrition is really important. I heard that not getting enough iron can make dark circles worse.
But anyway, the best thing is to see a dermatologist. I also have dark circles, and they usually get worse if I don't sleep enough or am not careful about what I eat.

I am here to give honest advice, when I feel I have something to contribute. I try to be as empathetic and understanding as I can, as I know that the way something is said is as important as the message itself.
I usually advise on love/relationships, friendship and family issues, nutrition, and health (mental and physical). If I feel I can help out, there's not a whole lot I am unwilling to answer. Ask away!
