Ah, age. You are a such a little brat.
Every now and again, I’ll catch a reflection of myself and see a big batch of grey hair…and I call my salon immediately. Likewise, I might notice my frown lines deepening…not because I frown a lot, but rather because I squint due to too much sun. In those cases, I slap on some deep moisturizer and call my facialist for a little microdermabrasion.
However, I just saw something HORRIFYING that I don’t know how to control. It’s new and it’s NOT pretty.
I shot a wedding earlier this month and my second shooter sent me her files today. And I saw the nastiness…deep, dark circles under my eyes. WHERE DID THESE SADDLEBAGS COME FROM and HOW LONG HAVE I HAD THEM?
See how sad and pathetic they are?
Anyone have any solutions? I need to put a REAL smile back on my face…not one like this scary fake one…and one that makes me look younger than I am. And I’m pretty sure it won’t be real until I get rid of these bags! ; )
i’m very interested in the answers you get to this problem. it’s one i’m having too. i’d also like to know the best way to photoshop them out.
SLEEP! I’m not very good at it, but I hear it does wonders!
i thought saddlebags were fatty thighs…ha! i dont see anything but perfection when i look in your beautiful face!!!
I think you look good.
But, I use photoshop to take care of mine… 
I’ve heard that cucumber slices or steeped tea bags are good at getting the bags to go away. Cucumbers feel refreshing at the very least! I think staying hydrated and getting enough rest helps but I suppose there are eye creams out there that can supplement.
I think I need a little microdermabrasion in my life. Even though I’ve never had it. I’ve heard dark circles can be caused by nutritional deficiencies. Don’t ask me which ones. My mom would know. Oh and sleep helps too (:
I wasn’t normally one to get into facial products until my friend introduced me to this line. I seriously can NOT believe how effective it really is. My MIL applied it to one of her eyes last night for the first time, and after about 30 minutes, you could already see a difference between her two eyes. Dark circles under the eyes is actually the result of poor blood circulation there.
Initially, I thought the price was way steeper than I would be willing to pay, but then the fact of the matter is, it lasts for a LONG time… And they give you a 100% money-back guarantee if it doesn’t seem to be working for you or you just plain decide you don’t like it. http://www.amway.com/hobein/Shop/Product/Product.aspx/ARTISTRY–TIME-DEFIANCE–Lifting-Eye-Cr-me?itemno=105532&dsNav=N:4294966727

OK, I’m done with my sales pitch.
