Wallen en donkere kringen onder je ogen verminderen?

Wallows and dark circles can also meet you. And let's be honest, that hardly any slept look is never in fashion. But despite the automatic association with fatigue, ramparts can have various causes. The application of minor changes in your lifestyle can significantly influence the presence of ramparts. In this article we will tell you what bags are, what the cause of ramparts and what you can do to make them a thing of the past!

What are bags?

Although it may seem obvious, ramparts are often confused with dark circles, another common problem that affects both men and women. The skin under your eyes is thinner than the skin on other parts of your face, making it one of the areas that previously shows signs of aging, damage and stress.

However, bags and dark circles are very different. A change in pigment in the skin under the eyes causes the appearance of dark circles, while ramparts are in fact a mild swelling under the eyes.

What are the causes of ramparts under your eyes and what can you do about it?

Insufficient sleep

Although it is true that insufficient sleep is usually not the main cause of ramparts under the eyes of men, it certainly does not help! Make sure you know at least the recommended 7 -hour sleep per night, and you will rather wake up with an alert and refreshing feeling - just like your eyes - since your body recovers at night!

To guarantee yourself a good night's sleep you can find out what works for you. For example, invest in a solid mattress, buy blackout curtains or relax before you go to sleep. You can do this for example with a good book. Prepare to go to sleep, and you will find that this will go off many times more easily.

What can you do about it?
Unfortunately, a shortage of sleep cannot be solved in one night. Your bags and/or dark circles will therefore not be remedied after one night of sleeping. Therefore, try to sleep about seven to eight hours every night. Do this not systematically succeed and do you experience this? Then it is advisable to discuss it with your doctor.

Drink enough

Do you know how much moisture you get daily? When the answer is no and bags are often visible under your eyes, then you might have to start keeping track of the number of glasses of water that you drink every day. Dehydration can contribute to the appearance of ramparts under the eyes, because your body tries to retain moisture. Your body consists of about 60% moisture. Sufficient drinking ensures that your body can remove moisture well.

What can you do about it?
Try to drink around 1.5 to 2 liters of water every day. Always bring a bottle of water for on the road or during work. Drink more automatically!

Watch out with smoking, caffeine and alcohol

Alcohol and caffeine have moisture drifting. That is why we recommend that you consume alcohol and caffeine in moderation. Not smoking or quitting smoking also influences the health of your skin because the skin is bleed better. This reduces dark circles and bags under your eyes.

What can you do about it?
It is important to drink alcohol and caffeine in moderation in moderation. When you smoke it is good to stop with this. When you stop, you will experience many more positive changes in addition to decreasing ramparts and dark circles!

Bad eating habits

Do you have an unhealthy eating pattern? Then there is a good chance that you can see this, due to a shortage of essential nutrients, to your skin. The right amount of vitamins and minerals are of great importance for your body and therefore also for your skin!
For example, vitamin A supports the healing capacity of your skin and vitamin C contributes to the formation of collagen.

It is also important to keep a close eye on your salt intake. Salt ensures that your body retains more moisture than necessary, which can result in bags under your eyes. Make sure you use no more than 2.3mg of salt per day.

What can you do about it?
Preferably eat healthy and varied to ensure that you get enough nutrients and walls under your eyes are not caused by a poor diet. Less also with the consumption of too much salt.

Stress

Due to stress you usually don't sleep like you would sleep otherwise. Stress also causes you to eat and drink poorly. Worrying in combination with poor sleep, eating and drinking can ensure that bags and dark circles occur under your eyes.

What can you do about it?
No matter how difficult it is, you will have to try to avoid stress as much as possible. It can sometimes help to write down the factors through which you experience stress so that they (just) leave your head. This way you can get to sleep better at night and sleep better. Relaxation exercises can also help set aside what you worry about.

Old age & genetic

As they say; Old age comes with defects. This unfortunately also applies to your skin. As you are outdated, your skin ages with you. The elasticity of the skin decreases and the firmness and thickness of your skin become thinner.

What can you do about it?
Unfortunately, you can do little influence on the aging process. When bags or dark circles are the result of old age, a cosmetic procedure can possibly help you. Are you considering a cosmetic procedure? Then it is wise to discuss this with your doctor.

The difference between ramparts and dark circles

Dark circles and ramparts, these two are often confused. Redxes are bags of moisture/fat or skin that accumulate under your eyes. The fat under your eye serves as a bump and ensures that the eye can turn in relation to the eye socket.

Dark circles, on the other hand, arise when blood vessels shine through the thin skin under your eyes. These will reveal themselves as a blue or purple -like haze.
