There's nothing worse than getting to school or work and hear your peer say "You look tired."
Tired
or not, dark circles are the reason.
While completely natural and
common, the grey skin circling your eyes can put a literal shadow on
your confidence. This is why so many make efforts to avoid or get rid of
them fast.
Celebrities, who are required to be in front of the camera and work long hours, have the answers. From Chrissy Teigen's $250 serum to the tool Lea Michele
uses to depuff, there are multiple practices and products that you can
choose from or combine to create a solution that will keep your eyes
bright.
Check out the products celebs love below!
Before creating the brilliant makeup looks you see on
the red carpet, celebs seek the help of celebrity aestheticians to get
the perfect base for the makeup artist's imagination. Eye patches or
masks are common options. The small U-shaped masks go directly under the
eyes to quickly infuse nutrients that reduce inflammation and blood
circulation.
Eye Patches
Camila Alves is a fan.
"When your
day starts at 4am and your kids were up in the middle of the night, the
day starts with de-puffing," she said in an Instagram
post.
"I love this hydro cool firming eye gel from [Skyn Iceland] as a quick
fix for the day. This is NOT an ad or sponsored. I just love this thing
and it works in 10 minutes! Thank you [
Patrick Ta] for introducing this to me!"

Creams are the most popular means of getting rid of dark
circles. Unlike eye masks, creams are meant to be used in your morning
and nighttime routine. Most include antioxidants, skin-tightening acids
and moisturizing agents to increase circulation and decrease fluid
retention within minutes, and reduct fine lines over time.
Eye Creams
Bachelorette's

Eye serums are used daily, like creams. The difference
lies within the formula. Serums tend to come in liquid or gel-like
solutions, like a face serum. These products tend to be lightweight, so
if you'd prefer not to layer a cream under your moisturizer, eye serums
are a good alternative.
Eye Serums
Chrissy Teigen used La Mer for brighter
eyes. In preparation for the Grammys, makeup artist Mary Philips shared
their routine: "First we prepped the skin with Creme de la Mer. Of
course, I warm up the products with my hands first and then press it
gently. I love using this on Chrissy because it just helps add to her
already natural glow, especially while she's pregnant. Then I pat La
Mer's The Lifting Eye Serum in with my ring finger under the eyes."
La Mer Lifting Eye Serum, $245.
Kiehl's
Loved by
Kim Kardashian and more, this
serum can be used alone or under an eye cream. Its claim to fame:

Beyond products and formulas, many add tools to their
routine. Face rollers, with jade rollers being the most popular
iteration, are applied all over the face. The cold stones are
anti-inflammatory and stimulate blood circulation in the region.
Face Rollers
Celebrities like
Lea Michele and models like
Miranda Kerr,
Behati Prinsloo and
Dallas Cameron have shared
their love for
the beauty tool. The models use it before hitting the catwalk, while Lea uses it on the daily.
"So
obsessed with my @gingerchinyc jade face roller," she said on her
Instagram stories. "It instantly rolls out all the fluid and rolls out
puffy eyes!"

serum? You get an eye roller. Similar to the packaging of small
fragrances, the rolling ball encourage healthy blood flow, while the
serum infuses dark circle-fighting ingredients into the area.
