Dark Circles Under Eyes / Crows Feet
-
Why do I have dark circles or crows feet?
The skin around the eyes is the thinnest on your body – the same thickness as an eggshell – and as you age, it gets even thinner. The area also has few oil glands, so dryness and lines from repeated squinting is common. It's the area of the face that most often shows the first signs of aging, and is prone to dark circles and fine lines.
Crows feet – lines that start at the outer corners of the eyes and become more pronounced when you smile – can be due to normal aging, but they are also commonly caused by UV damage.
Dark circles can have a purple, blue, grey or brownish hue. They are most commonly caused by dehydration, a lack of sleep, genetics, or medications. -
