My $9 Amazon buy transformed my dark under-eye circles – I literally use it every night before bed, it’s a game-changer
A SKINCARE fan has revealed the budget-friendly buy that diminished her under-eye circles and left her with a vibrant look.
She used the Amazon item every night before bed, and it completely changed her skin.
Ashley Ramirez (@ashleysramirez) prioritizes her skincare regimen, so she can have a glowy and youthful appearance.
She shared in a viral TikTok video a product that transformed her dark under-eye circles.
The TikToker invited viewers into her home as she demonstrated her nighttime beauty routine.
It consisted of several steps, but there was a vital hack that made a big difference for her under-eyes.
She wasn’t wearing any makeup and felt that her face looked “pretty good” with an “even complexion.”
Dark under-eye circles can sometimes cause a purple-reddish or purple-blue tone.
The secret to her success is the Boiron Arnicare Gel for Soothing Relief of Joint Pain, $8.54.
“I put it anywhere where I have, like, the redness and stuff,” she said.
Ashley demonstrated in the video how she smears the clear cream under her eyes and just lets it “sit there.”
“I literally do this every night when I go to sleep,” she explained.
She also issued a warning that should be taken seriously.
“It burned my under eyes,” a viewer admitted.
“Try not to get too close to where your eyelashes touch because that happened to me a couple of times,” she replied.
The product doesn’t just work for under-eye areas.
Many people use it to diminish discoloration or fade dark marks all over their bodies.
“I grew up putting arnica on bruises,” one wrote.
“It also helps with arthritis and rosacea!” a TikTok user commented.
“I heard this works for acne scars too, my dermatologist said, ” a woman said.
“Yesss this works. I use it on random bruises I get and they go away pretty quickly,” another added.
Anti-aging tips and 'superstar' products
Dr. Anatalia Moore is a GP and skin specialist with over 11 years of clinical experience.
She told The U.S. Sun that her goal is to equip patients with the knowledge they need to take control of their skin journey.
She said the fundamental basics of a beauty routine are the same for all ages — it should include an effective cleanser, moisturizer, and SPF.
“Moisturizers are my superstar, even over products containing active ingredients,” she said.
“Finding a well-balanced moisturizer that provides the right kind of hydration, replaces natural oils, and seals them in, literally stabilizes your skin.
“This in itself quickly can soften the appearance of fine lines and texture, as often these are worsened by dehydration.
“It also allows the skin the function as it should.
“It then can heal faster, which amongst many things can lead to fewer lines and wrinkles, less flares of dermatitis and rosacea, and shorter-lived, milder breakouts.”
Dr. Moore’s skincare staples:
- Obagi Hydrate and Hydrate Lux moisturizer, $78
- Adequate sleep
- Balanced diet
- Reducing stress
Many TikTok users were looking forward to trying it and some already tried the trick.
“You literally have no eye bags, so I trust you 100%,” one commented.
“Me adding another step to my skincare,” a viewer wrote.
