Targeting Dark Circles: The Right Ingredients for Your Concerns

Dark circles under the eyes are one of the most frustrating skin concerns—but the solution depends entirely on understanding the root cause. At JEI Clinic, we believe in personalized approaches that address your specific needs, not generic recommendations.

First, identify what's causing your dark circles:

They could stem from genetics, lifestyle factors, diet, sleep quality, or even caffeine intake. Once you understand the underlying cause, you can choose the right active ingredients.

For pigmentation-based dark circles: Look for products containing arbutin—a tyrosinase inhibitor that works by blocking pigment production in the skin. This helps lighten hyperpigmentation and create a more even-toned under-eye area.

For vascular dark circles: If your dark circles are caused by visible blood vessels beneath the thin under-eye skin, opt for rutin. This ingredient acts as a vasoconstrictor, reducing the appearance of those blood vessels and minimizing that shadowy appearance.

The key is matching the treatment to the cause—something we specialize in during consultations at JEI Clinic.
