Does yeast cause dark circles under the eyes? The short answer and how to get rid of dark circles

Does yeast cause dark circles under the eyes? There is a very short answer to that question, then some more direct answers that will guide you to the solutions.

Here’s how to get rid of dark circles.

First the answer, then an explanation.

No, yeast does NOT cause dark circles. There is no evidence that a yeast infection (also called a yeast infection or yeast infection) has anything to do with the dark circles that millions of people have under their eyes.

The question reminds me of a common one without any truth: Will hemorrhoid cream shrink bags under the eyes and reduce dark circles? The answer is the same: No. (Sometimes the questions sound like jokes. Trust me, I’m not kidding and I didn’t make up any of the questions.)

So why do I mention it then?

Because I found out very recently that people often came across one of my articles asking the question on Google: “Does yeast cause dark circles under the eyes?”

The most common causes

– Sometimes dark circles have an underlying medical condition: Iron deficiency anemia has been blamed for dark circles. If that’s a problem, proper medical treatment is required.

– Often, we inherit the tendency to have those dark circles. If your dark circles look a lot like your mother’s, say, then it seems like your genes have something to do with it. That doesn’t mean you just have to live with it, there are definitely things you can do to help. But it helps to explain the problem.

– The most common cause for most people is a combination of several things:

The skin under the eyes is the thinnest and perhaps the most delicate on your face and body. You can see any flaws under the skin very well. The exact problem is usually damage to the tiny blood vessels (capillaries) in the area. They lose small amounts of fluid all the time.

The fluid contains hemoglobin from the blood. When filled with oxygen that is carried to all cells in the body, hemoglobin is bright red. When it loses its oxygen, it turns bluish or purple. Hemoglobin that escapes from the blood vessels will always lose its oxygen. As it builds up, you get unpleasant colors, usually shades of deep red or blue, which often darken to almost black over time.

Poor circulation, both blood and lymph in the area, worsens the appearance. Your skin may be loose, as well as dark, under your eyes.

Solutions

Makeup is the only immediate solution, of course. If that makes you feel better, no problem. A soft pink or peach color often works best to hide the dark area, depending on your skin tone.

In the long term, the best solution is excellent skin nutrition. I will name a few ingredients that have been shown to be effective in clinical trials. They are worth looking for in an eye serum, under eye cream, or whatever the manufacturer calls it. (Serum, cream, lotion, they are all different words for the same type of treatment.)

A brand-name ingredient called Haloxyl reduced the dark circles under the eyes of volunteers in a clinical trial by more than 60 percent. Haloxyl helps thicken the skin under the eyes, stimulates blood circulation, and removes the hemoglobin that darkens the skin in that area.

Another ingredient called Eyeliss brought a marked reduction in bags under the eyes in a four-week trial.

These ingredients are complemented by others that stimulate the skin to produce more collagen and elastin. That makes a big difference because thin skin and fat loss in the under-eye area exaggerates the problem.
