Dark circle and bags under the eyes is a very common problem in our current lifestyle. The most effective and inexpensive way of getting rid of it is by following a healthier diet and lifestyle. You need to catch up on sleep (at least 8 hours). Make a pouch of frozen peas and keep it over your eyes for 10 minutes when you wake up to reduce any puffiness. Drink at least 10 glasses of water every day. Reduce the intake of caffeine and salt in your diet. Salt is known to retain water and give a puffy appearance to your eyes.
