The cerave tinted sunscreen makes a gorgeous undereye sunscreen, it's too greasy for my face but it makes my undereyes so smooth and it makes my concealer more pigmented.
I need to find some of that in Austria I’ve been timing with LaMer tube foundation. Yeah, I know… but my skin is so much happier with marine inclusive. I put it down to being biCoastal Canadia. When I live inland, my skin goes to shit, LaMer, La Mer & The Ordinary marine all do me some good. Say what you will, adding those to CeraVe does a lot for my skin that LaMer, La Mer, Ordinary or CeraVe alone do not 🍹
Yes! Thanks, Dr Dray!! The struggle is real. I can't afford expensive cosmetic procedures so I have to learn to live with my dark circles. Its hard when people make comments about how tired you look or even think someone has punched you. Appreciate the tips. You're awesome!! Hope you have a lovely evening. 💗
A reminder to be aware of any irregularities on your (or loved one's skin). I took my partner to the doctor this evening, after noticing a raised, flakey bump with a red surround on his arm. As I suspected, it was a basal cell carcinoma, which was cut immediately in the surgery. (The doctor kindly stayed back late to do it.) A few years ago, he also had one removed from his upper back, that he hadn't realised he had. Please don't put off getting such things seen to! While I was there, I also made an appointment for myself for a full body skin check. 👱♀️❤
How scary! My father had a few of those removed back in the day. There was no such thing as sunscreen when he was a child or even as an adult! Worse, he was fair skinned with blonde hair and grey eyes. Skin cancers tend to grow downward as well as outward, which is what makes them so insidious! Full body skin checks are so important, because, like your partner, you can have one or more that you may very well not be aware of! Thanks so much for the reminder🌻💕
To everyone with dark circles: I think they are cute! My boyfriend says it's like a 90 supermodel thing for some reason haha But yeah, when I was a child I had a really bad grass and trees allergies and I always had super dark circles. Everyone thought I am sick all the time. When I went through 5 years anti-allergy treatment my dark circles dramatically improved! I till have them, because I have deep set eyes, but they don't look bad if I am hydrating and sleeping well. I never believed in any products helping with dark circles.
They give a boost, like they're one part of a whole if that makes sense? But you gotta be careful and look for stuff like the ingredients Dr. Day mentioned because sooooo many eye creams and treatment serums are really just general stuff that could be used for the face and they bumped up the price, shrank the package and labeled it an eye cream. And to each their own I guess. :). I personally cannot stand mine. They look like under eye bruises. Right now I'm relying on working on getting more sleep and a gel cream/serum I'm using up before swapping to T.O's caffeine solution
My teenage daughter recently discovered concealer for her eye circles and I actually miss seeing her little under eye circles (genetic). Now her face looks too flat and like something's missing lol.
Alcohol can also cause puffiness/swelling and bags around the eyes on some people. I notice it even if I just have one glass of white wine (inc. Champagne etc.). For me, red wine (non-sparlling) seems to be OK,...occassionally and in moderation. Lack of sleep and salty foods exacerbates the puffiness and inner/under eye darkness for me too...which sometimes goes hand-in-hand with alcohol consumption. 👱♀️❤
Love Dr. Dray. Did want to add that when the thyroid/adrenal situation is out of whack, dark circles under the eyes are intensified. Also, move a bit of your blush up, ladies to the dark circles. Just a dab of creamy blush under both eyes helps with the raccoon look. Try it. The red counteracts the purple.
I have dark circles because of my dark skin and my deep eyes..all of those years I tried many products Nothing worked.. Even kafeine or green tea.. Nothing except vitamin K.. Really helped with a good hydration and sunglasses.. Not disappear the circles but help to look better under eye. The issue is more difficult with the years.. When you are young circles can be cute.. But with lines and bags under eye.. Not at all.. Good videos Dr dray.
I have very dark circles under my eyes (age and allergies) and while it doesn’t totally remove the circles, dermalmd under eye serum lightens and brightens without being hard on the skin. I can dab a little makeup to finish using so much less than I did before. If you have lighter circles than I do it will probably fix it and you’ll like the way it looks.
FYI, because of you, I have become such a sunscreen junkie, that my parents are worried that I joined some kind of sunscreen cult or something lol 😂😂😂💕
Omg yes! My husband doesn't believe me, and carries on saying "I haven't used it my whole life and I'm perfectly fine" and my face just cringes 🥴 needless to say I have spoken to my 2 kids about sunscreen and always ask me for it before going out 🥰
Dear Dr Dray, I used to hate my face because of Acne and comedones. I didn't want to go to the dermatologist coz it didn't work for me and it's expensive. I just followed your advices and now its smooth and almost flawless as ever ❤️❤️❤️ Thank you so much for existing 😁😊🥺
So if my dark circles are hereditary I'm lost? 🤪 I've learned to live with my dark circles but it's really hard to look professional at work when your face looks like it hasn't had a good nights rest in decades 🤣🤣🤣🤣 I have experimented with makeup, and right know I use a color corrector and a concealer on top, in my skincare routine am/pm I include a simple eye cream just to hydrate so makeup can grip better 👍👍 thank you for sharing Dr. Dray! 🤩
Age Rewind is by far the best every day concealer I’ve tried. And I’ve tried so many. I have hereditary dark circles and also deep lines. This is the best concealer for both those issues. But I do reapply in the afternoon. I love love love tinted sunscreen and use them as foundations. I have been using Mychelle sun shield liquid and Australian Gold tinted spf 50
Funny because it did nothing for me. The Born This Way concealer is sooo much better. So is the Milani Perfect Longwear concealer. But I have pretty severe dark circles. I'm also in my forties now. Lots of those drugstore concealers worked well when I was younger, not so much anymore.
I always appreciate how we share our experiences, so I will try often MANY of what this ‘FAMILY’ says. I trust when I hear same issues by others and what issues with the product good/bad/different. I try not to say bad and instead I say not the best results. If I DO have a bad reaction, and I’ve stated to others what my issues are-theirs might be similar. I’m endeavoring to learn non judge mental statements, because we’re all different but maybe similar in experience. Am I making sense😝😝😝???? Love you FAMILY! Thank you 🙏🏻 all-ways for sharing🌹
I was impressed by the elf hydrating camo concealer. And I wasn't expecting to like it as much as I do so impressed. My dark circles are mostly genetic so camouflage helps for when I want to cover them but need something hydrating as I'm in my late 30s.
My dark circles are due to my allergies. At least that's what my ENT and dermatologist said. I've had then since childhood because allergies enjoy giving me the middle finger every chance they can get.
That's the same thing I was told, I have horrible dark circles and horrible allergies.. But I'm going to try some of the items she mentioned. Couldn't hurt!
Ugh! Wish I said can’t relate and it was true lol flipping allergy pills...non drowsy don’t do diddly squat for me, and I DONT wanna fall asleep from the ones that work! Aaarrrggghhh! Meh, puffy eyes dark circles hello goodbye never lol but I TOO shall try her recommendations!😄🌹❤️
My started due to allergies. But now my allergies are basically non existent. However I am struggling with hyperpigmentation they got so much worse . I really hope something works for all of us. Cause they're a huge insecurity
Happy Wednesday Dr Dray ❤ I don't have Dark Circles but due to my bad habit of rubbing my eyes constantly, I have multiple wrinkles under me eyes as a young teen
It's so crazy that so many people struggle with sunscreen especially majority of PCOS and yet there is not one product that will actually help you get rid of it other than tear through treatment which is quite dangerous.
The UltraSun sunscreen I use on my face, I also use around my eyes and it doesn't sting at all (combination chemical and physical). And I have really sensitive eyes. Since I've been applying it around my eyes regularly, the dark circles have gotten better, not totally gone at all but I'm happy with how it is now.
I was having some serious redness and flaking skin around my eyes. Nothing helped, other “natural” products burned and made it worse. After researching online, I came across DermalMD under eye Treatment. it’s a fraction of the price of prestige beauty brands. I saw results within hours. The serum is light-weight feeling, smooth, doesn’t sting/burn and has no scent. New lifetime consumer of dermalmd!
Hi Dr. Dray! First of all, you look GORGEOUS today!! Your hair looks particularly beautiful as well -- the center part looks very flattering on you! Second: I love your top!! It's so pretty and looks great on you. I have been struggling with this undereye hyperpigmentation for a couple of years as I got into my wiser years -- late fifties. Another concealer that I highly recommend and recently discovered is the dermablend full coverage concealer. It is pretty forgiving for mature undereye skin which is crepey, dry and wrinkly. It is very moisturizing, and I am enjoying it. If I use my Eltamd Tinted Elements sunscreen with the dermablend concealer on top, it works pretty darn well. Thank you for another great video, dear Dr. Dray!!! Xo ❤
Cool! Thanks for sharing that, I have hereditary dark circles and they come with countless wrinkles included 🤣🤣🤣 will try to get that dermablend concealer
Happy Wednesday dr Dray and everyone 😀. I have had dark circles all my life . Its hereditary. I was a fan of the late Cindy Joseph who had a pro-age message to accept ourselves instead of worrying about every flaw . I have found sunscreen makes a big difference and skin looks better when its hydrated so I really like the inkey list caffeine eye cream . When I do want to cover them I find an orange peach correct works well. I use one by Pixi cosmetics they have a peach for light to medium tone and an apricot one for dark to deep tones. You put a little on were you are darkest and blend. You can put concealer or make-up over it . It does make a difference. Have a great day love to mom and Tybee 🥰🥰🥰
I microneedle glutanex glow under my eyes and inject under the skin as a mesotherapy and my dark circles have gone away. It’s amazing. I don’t need any makeup anymore. It took like 3 months of doing it monthly and it’s been like a year and it hasn’t come back. I also put pdo threads vertical and horizontal under the eyes and that worked to increase the collagen.
My new makeup routine has become, the ordinary mineral sunscreen for under my eyes, Cerave facial moisturizer with spf 30 and then Laura Mercury tinted moisturizer with SPF (20) and put it everywhere and bro I look like a tan goddess. Love it
I've had PIH under my eyes for a good 5-6 months and it's only now that it's starting to go away because I kept irritating it and making the hyperpigmentation worse, focusing on hydration and having 0 irritation when using actives is doing wonders. Slow and steady wins the race yall!
Hello! Can you please tell me how dark were your dark circles? Mine is mid I guess? I was using a very strong - and good, actually - product but I was using it under my eyes. Now have this PIH dark circle of which I never had before in my life. The funny part is that one side (one under-eye) is darker than the other (I'd say the right one is how it always was, differently than the left one). If you could tell me, I would be really thankful :) Edit: Also, did you use some specific product to accelerate the healing? If yes, could you please tell me? Thank you very much!
Regarding hydrogel eye patches, a warning so others don't waste their money like I did: I bought the Skyn Iceland ones from Ulta last December, and when I went to open a new pair last week, one was rancid (looked yellow and smelled terrible). I opened the last pair I had left, and both had turned bad.
oh whoa thanks for the heads up. so when you said you opened up a new pair last week, you're referring to the ones you bought in december right? (it's late at night and im fading fast lol).
Dr. Dray, I have been using the red roller product that you recommended in your shop with me at Dollar tree video for my dark circles(not from hyperpigmentation). It has vitamin k, peptides and caffeine. Over time I have noticed that it really helps if I use it at night regularly. It is called skin nutrition New York. Great product for a dollar!!! Thanks so much
I have really dark circles and it’s hard for me to put concealer because my eyes gets watery and it rubs off my concealer and it’s embarrassing and I have no time to touch up while I’m at work!
I recently heard "Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen" - by Baz Luhrmann, for the first time. I immediately thought of you, Dr Dray, and all your sunscreen devotees (self included). What a great song!
I have genetic dark circles . I do wear makeup to cover them up but again I get insecure when I’m not wearing any so I came up to this video to see if there’s anything I could do
I been using sunscreen (mineral) everyday, indoors as well, for a month and a half now and i noticed my eyelids do not look so dark anymore; Squeels!!!!

idk if you've seen her recent videos but she actually talked about this one. she said that if you want the anti aging properties, retinol works best when the product stays on your skin.
I can’t help but enjoy where those little orange buttons are located they are placed with perfection 👌🏻 You help so many people it’s beautiful to witness! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
2021 best mineral zinc oxide sunscreen that is tinted and is unbelievably covering is bioderma cover touch spf 50+. Biggest issue with it is the color range, only two tones available and both are quite warm toned and dark. If we would write bioderma collectively maybe they would offer bigger range of colours. It would be the best high coverage foundation and spf in one if it had good tone range for people
Hello DR DRAY! I love your content so much. My question is do you recommend steaming? I’m thinking about buying a facial steamer. Everyone please let me know if she has already talked about this. 💙💙💙
Not gonna lie, the concealer defeats the purpose of what most people who look up these videos are looking for. We all know make-up can conceal unwanted coloration under the eyes. We are looking for natural ways or permanent solutions for fixing this issue.
Dr. Dray has a video on dark knees and elbows! According to Dr. Dray, pat mostly dry, but leave skin a little damp so your skin really absorbs the moisturizer and allows for that glow✨ best of luck!
Thanks so much for this video. Definitely going to try out one of these products. I was if any of these combined both Vitamin K and Caffeine? And if you use other eye creams, would you put these on first, wait for total absorption and then proceed with your regular routine?
Me: has been wearing my daughter's baby mineral sunscreen for 2 years lol. I don't worry about the white cast. I'm so pale I could use white face makeup and look normal.
Hi Dr Dray, thanks for this video. Someone on RUclips mentioned using lip balm that has spf in it around the eyes rather than sunscreen as it prevents sunscreen from getting in your eyes and stinging, it’s also more of a ‘stay-put’ consistency. Interested to hear your thoughts:)
Me feeling "all knowing", skin &sun educated by Dr. Dray: "Mom, did you put sunscreen on?!?!" My Mom: "My makeup has an SPF in it" Me: "IT'S NOT ENOUGH!!!! Do you want pro pigmenting wavelengths from visible light, Linda!??? DO YOU???!!!" 😂😂😂😂😂
I see make-up bloggers suggesting mixing a clump of foundation make-up in with sunscreen and then applying the mixture. Is this a good idea to avoid wiping off sunscreen when putting on foundation?
I went to the Ordinary store to get help with darkness and hollowness around my eyes due to aging and genetics, and I was recommended. Fractionated eye contour concentrate and reviews online aren't great Can you please give me a recommendation on what you like for darkness around the eyes, please ?
I had dark eye circle due to the lack of sleeping and sleep late problem. I have tried two solutions, 1. I tried HUM WING MAN- liver detox & dark circle which help me LOTS!! 2. I have tear-trough cosmetic surgery treatment to brighten my eye area. another great choice in my case.
Hi Dr.Dray I am looking for a affordable tinted sunscreen that I can apply around my eyes to help protect and cover dark circles. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you
I've developed dark circles that look like bruises. I mean, I sent a photo recently and my MIL asked if I was injured. It looks that bruise like. I've asked all of my doctors (I have lupus and a bouquet of medical issues, so I just asked ALL of them; you never know) and I heard mostly "I Don't Know" to "Allergies." Finally, my dermatologist (I know it's not skin, but figured ladies or fellas might ask under the heading of appearance) and she said oh yea, that's an allergy issue and she showed my photos, etc and gave me two OTC names, said do these daily (one a pill, one a nasal spary). I did that for 4 months straight; nope. So my quest continues. I've started with the color correcting first, then light cover. It's still there, if you are looking for it, but it's better. Ages me tremendously.
I looked up the pillow she was talking about thinking it'd be like 30 bucks(which is a lot for a pillow imo) turned out it was closer to 200! 😅 Not in my budget but maybe a good long term investment I'll have to wait for like geeezzz
I'm using Dr V Rattan Dark Circles kit. I have dark skin with very bad dark circles. I have tried many expensive eye creams with no luck. I feel I have combination of pigmentation and thin skin that is causing the dark circles.
Love your videos Dr Dray thank you for the content and thank you for drawing my attention to what’s important with skincare - keep it simple ❤️ sending love from UK 🇬🇧
Thank you! I was for buying a simple improvement cream off of Amazon to be honest lol it’s appreciated :) I chose a Derma E Eye Cream of Vitamin C, Turmeric & Caffeine. Sounds worthwhile!
Love you Dr.Dray! Question- is a good Vitamin-C serum (like the skinceuticals one you mentioned) a superior anti-oxidant than something like caffeine under sunscreen? Or is caffeine (or any other anti-oxidant) doing the same job, but more likely to penetrate the skin and less likely to oxidize as you said about Vitamin C? Thanks so much Dr.Dray! I love your stuff, and was so proud when you chose Baleaf UV clothing as I had, felt like I made a good choice when you agreed with it!
I'm hoping Dr Dray may notice my comment. I saw that maybe what I have are close comedones or milia but since it was said these bumps eventually go away and mine have never gone away for years now I'm still stuck. There is an issue I've always had and I haven't seen anyone address whatever this is and how to fix it. Whenever I get acne on my chin the acne always leaves a permanent bump. They're a little lighter than my dark skin and they never go away once the acne has been there. My nose does the same thing. I have had my first bump near my nostrils since I was 13 and I am 30 now. My first permanent bump which is the biggest on my chin has been around since 2011. I have two others on the other side of my nose and they've never gone away. I don't know what to search for to figure out what these are. They don't hurt and no matter how hard I squeeze nothing comes out of them. I don't have a primary doctor, so I don't know how to get professionally seen by a dermatologist. I wish I could find something to reduce this. The more permanent bumps I get the uglier I feel.
@Diana Moore I agree; I had something similar that just would NOT go away. After four months on Differin, they are almost completely gone! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. I hope this helps you, AwGurl!
I think I have what you’re referring to. I use a clay mask at night and Differin gel during the day. But they come back if I don’t continue. I hate those things!
I know caffeine can be very drying, but it’s interesting the Derma-E eye patches have them. I’m sure there are hydrating ingredients in there that combat the drying effect from caffeine. I’ll have to try!
I find it so cool how you said the zinc oxide cast acts as a brightener because I was thinking that when I sometimes use the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Zinc around my eyes! It reminded me of the Kat Von D white concealer I’ve never owned but I’ve seen in Sephora :) thanks for your videos, I love all the helpful facts!
Dr. Dray my husband is probably so over me talking about you. I found you about 2 weeks ago and I'm obsessed! Thank you so so soooo much! I used to buy more expensive skincare thinking it was better. I've learned so much through your videos and we have done an a.m p.m routine and I've already noticed a difference. I have a lot of skin problems and I know it'll take time but I'm so excited to actually know about my personal skin and about ingredients!!!!! Now I look at ingredients of everything!!!!!!!!
1. Sunscreen (mineral)
2. Concealers
3. Lip SPF
4. Sunglasses (without metal frames)
5. Caffeine & Vitamin K
6. Under eye hydro gel patches
7. Less sodium intake
8. Elevated pillows
Wow this was so concise. Thank you

I don't have Dark Circles but due to my bad habit of rubbing my eyes constantly, I have multiple wrinkles under me eyes as a young teen
💙💙
Same 🙄
I use a mineral sunscreen around my eyes and I picked one with a bit of a white cast and it definitely minimizes the look.
Have you tried tinted mineral sunscreen?
What sunscreen is this? Thanks much!
It's so crazy that so many people struggle with sunscreen especially majority of PCOS and yet there is not one product that will actually help you get rid of it other than tear through treatment which is quite dangerous.
The UltraSun sunscreen I use on my face, I also use around my eyes and it doesn't sting at all (combination chemical and physical). And I have really sensitive eyes. Since I've been applying it around my eyes regularly, the dark circles have gotten better, not totally gone at all but I'm happy with how it is now.
Hello which ultrasun you're using?
@@nourthrondsen1446 ultrasun spf 30 face. White slim bottle, pink letters
@@doraj7917 Thank you! I'm currently using the extreme spf50+ one for sensitive skin, first time trying it and your comment gave me hope
I was having some serious redness and flaking skin around my eyes. Nothing helped, other “natural” products burned and made it worse. After researching online, I came across DermalMD under eye Treatment. it’s a fraction of the price of prestige beauty brands. I saw results within hours. The serum is light-weight feeling, smooth, doesn’t sting/burn and has no scent. New lifetime consumer of dermalmd!
As a mom of 2. This video right here. Thank you.
Hi Dr. Dray! First of all, you look GORGEOUS today!! Your hair looks particularly beautiful as well -- the center part looks very flattering on you! Second: I love your top!! It's so pretty and looks great on you. I have been struggling with this undereye hyperpigmentation for a couple of years as I got into my wiser years -- late fifties. Another concealer that I highly recommend and recently discovered is the dermablend full coverage concealer. It is pretty forgiving for mature undereye skin which is crepey, dry and wrinkly. It is very moisturizing, and I am enjoying it. If I use my Eltamd Tinted Elements sunscreen with the dermablend concealer on top, it works pretty darn well. Thank you for another great video, dear Dr. Dray!!! Xo ❤
Cool! Thanks for sharing that, I have hereditary dark circles and they come with countless wrinkles included 🤣🤣🤣 will try to get that dermablend concealer
@@aguiebakes6821 it's the Dermablend Quickfix concealer. It comes in a stick formula.
Happy Wednesday dr Dray and everyone 😀. I have had dark circles all my life . Its hereditary. I was a fan of the late Cindy Joseph who had a pro-age message to accept ourselves instead of worrying about every flaw . I have found sunscreen makes a big difference and skin looks better when its hydrated so I really like the inkey list caffeine eye cream . When I do want to cover them I find an orange peach correct works well. I use one by Pixi cosmetics they have a peach for light to medium tone and an apricot one for dark to deep tones. You put a little on were you are darkest and blend. You can put concealer or make-up over it . It does make a difference. Have a great day love to mom and Tybee 🥰🥰🥰
I also like the Tart color corrector. It comes in 2 peach toned shades.
What a great tip! Thanks so much, Mary Ann💕
I microneedle glutanex glow under my eyes and inject under the skin as a mesotherapy and my dark circles have gone away. It’s amazing. I don’t need any makeup anymore. It took like 3 months of doing it monthly and it’s been like a year and it hasn’t come back. I also put pdo threads vertical and horizontal under the eyes and that worked to increase the collagen.
@@vetsai8199 you’re welcome a few companies sell them but pixi is reasonable and cruelty free and Target sells it 👍👍
@@impeds you had this done at a clinic?
My new makeup routine has become, the ordinary mineral sunscreen for under my eyes, Cerave facial moisturizer with spf 30 and then Laura Mercury tinted moisturizer with SPF (20) and put it everywhere and bro I look like a tan goddess. Love it
I've had PIH under my eyes for a good 5-6 months and it's only now that it's starting to go away because I kept irritating it and making the hyperpigmentation worse, focusing on hydration and having 0 irritation when using actives is doing wonders. Slow and steady wins the race yall!
Hello! Can you please tell me how dark were your dark circles? Mine is mid I guess? I was using a very strong - and good, actually - product but I was using it under my eyes. Now have this PIH dark circle of which I never had before in my life. The funny part is that one side (one under-eye) is darker than the other (I'd say the right one is how it always was, differently than the left one). If you could tell me, I would be really thankful :)
Edit: Also, did you use some specific product to accelerate the healing? If yes, could you please tell me? Thank you very much!
@@28rizzons hi Carlos! Did you find a good solution for your PIH? I’m having the same problem…
Dr Dray looking flawless as always !
Thank you so much 💙 hope you are having a great week
You are the best dermatologist on youtube.
Regarding hydrogel eye patches, a warning so others don't waste their money like I did: I bought the Skyn Iceland ones from Ulta last December, and when I went to open a new pair last week, one was rancid (looked yellow and smelled terrible). I opened the last pair I had left, and both had turned bad.
oh whoa thanks for the heads up. so when you said you opened up a new pair last week, you're referring to the ones you bought in december right? (it's late at night and im fading fast lol).
i also bought an eye serum it didn't work it make it become worse and burned my eyes
Dr. Dray, I have been using the red roller product that you recommended in your shop with me at Dollar tree video for my dark circles(not from hyperpigmentation). It has vitamin k, peptides and caffeine. Over time I have noticed that it really helps if I use it at night regularly. It is called skin nutrition New York. Great product for a dollar!!! Thanks so much
I use it too!
Holy wow!

Choices, choices....
Hi dr Dray, how long should I wait for the CE Ferulic to absorb in my skin before I apply moisturiser and sunscreen? Should 5 minutes be enough?
Til dry...time varies with humidity
You have truly saved my skin in soo many ways, thank you and keep up your amazing work 🙏🥰 greetings from Finland
So many good suggestions from the comments too. Thank you doctor and thanks to everyone. My dark circles are awful but I have hope now.
I'm glad you made this because I watched one of your old videos about dark circles recently.
Really glad to know that you recommend the Derma-E eye patches, I dropped them in my cart!
I love the patches and love them. I put them in the fridge and use in the morning mostly with breakfast. No irritation at all for me. Hope you enjoy!
I have really dark circles and it’s hard for me to put concealer because my eyes gets watery and it rubs off my concealer and it’s embarrassing and I have no time to touch up while I’m at work!
I recently heard "Everybody's Free To Wear Sunscreen" - by Baz Luhrmann, for the first time. I immediately thought of you, Dr Dray, and all your sunscreen devotees (self included). What a great song!
Haha I thought about dr dray too 😂😂
So interesting about metal framed sunglasses! Thanks for the tip!
Hi there Dr Dray! Thanks so much for posting everyday! We appreciate your dedication & effort! 💙💙💙
I have genetic dark circles . I do wear makeup to cover them up but again I get insecure when I’m not wearing any so I came up to this video to see if there’s anything I could do
I been using sunscreen (mineral) everyday, indoors as well, for a month and a half now and i noticed my eyelids do not look so dark anymore; Squeels!!!!
Which sunscreen please if u don't mind sharing? 😊

Hi would love to hear your opinion on the Olay Cleansing & Renewing Nighttime Body Wash with Retinol!
idk if you've seen her recent videos but she actually talked about this one. she said that if you want the anti aging properties, retinol works best when the product stays on your skin.
I can’t help but enjoy where those little orange buttons are located they are placed with perfection 👌🏻 You help so many people it’s beautiful to witness! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

2021 best mineral zinc oxide sunscreen that is tinted and is unbelievably covering is bioderma cover touch spf 50+. Biggest issue with it is the color range, only two tones available and both are quite warm toned and dark. If we would write bioderma collectively maybe they would offer bigger range of colours. It would be the best high coverage foundation and spf in one if it had good tone range for people
Supergoop bright eyes mineral sunscreen eye cream is a fantastic dupe for the colorescience one!
That’s good to know! Thanx so much for the tip💖
Thanks for sharing about the Supergoop bright eyes. I have the Colorscience one, but it is so expensive!!
The ordinary caffeine solution works well with dark puffy eyebags. I just use it 4 times a week and it's really helpful
Eating leafy green vegetables and organ meats several times per week has done wonders for my under eyes.
nutrient dense choices! nice!
What kind of organ meats? I’ve been quite vegan lately and my dark circles are raging.
Hello DR DRAY! I love your content so much. My question is do you recommend steaming? I’m thinking about buying a facial steamer. Everyone please let me know if she has already talked about this. 💙💙💙
Not gonna lie, the concealer defeats the purpose of what most people who look up these videos are looking for. We all know make-up can conceal unwanted coloration under the eyes. We are looking for natural ways or permanent solutions for fixing this issue.
Just packed with practical info! As always! Thank you!
How can you get rid of dark elbows. How do you dry you face after washing? Love you. I also have the gloves for 3 years🙌
Dr. Dray has a video on dark knees and elbows! According to Dr. Dray, pat mostly dry, but leave skin a little damp so your skin really absorbs the moisturizer and allows for that glow✨ best of luck!
Thanks so much for this video. Definitely going to try out one of these products. I was if any of these combined both Vitamin K and Caffeine? And if you use other eye creams, would you put these on first, wait for total absorption and then proceed with your regular routine?
Hi, what about eyelid hyperpigmentation? What is your opinion on Dr V skincare products for periorbital hyperpigmentation?
isn't that thyroid related?
Nope I have hyperpigmentation all around my eyes have all my life, and have perfect thyroid function, just got tested again!
I dunno dr v seems like a hack now....
Me: has been wearing my daughter's baby mineral sunscreen for 2 years lol. I don't worry about the white cast. I'm so pale I could use white face makeup and look normal.
Hi Dr Dray, thanks for this video. Someone on RUclips mentioned using lip balm that has spf in it around the eyes rather than sunscreen as it prevents sunscreen from getting in your eyes and stinging, it’s also more of a ‘stay-put’ consistency. Interested to hear your thoughts:)
She mentioned and even showed a lip balm in this video 😅 5:30s
Really love how you explained everything in the video.
Me feeling "all knowing", skin &sun educated by Dr. Dray: "Mom, did you put sunscreen on?!?!"
My Mom: "My makeup has an SPF in it"
Me: "IT'S NOT ENOUGH!!!! Do you want pro pigmenting wavelengths from visible light, Linda!??? DO YOU???!!!"
😂😂😂😂😂
Hi 🙋♀️ check my name...😝😝😝🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
I can relate. That’s me with my sister.
Love this comment so
Unique and real
I see make-up bloggers suggesting mixing a clump of foundation make-up in with sunscreen and then applying the mixture. Is this a good idea to avoid wiping off sunscreen when putting on foundation?
Do you have tips for people with leaky capillaries under the eyes? Even concealer just takes one look at the blue under my eyes and goes "I give up!"
Good question. My blue veins are impossible to cover.
I went to the Ordinary store to get help with darkness and hollowness around my eyes due to aging and genetics, and I was recommended. Fractionated eye contour concentrate and reviews online aren't great Can you please give me a recommendation on what you like for darkness around the eyes, please ?
You are amazing and so thorough....with your explanations. I come to you when I need advice..thank you 🙏🏼❤️
I had dark eye circle due to the lack of sleeping and sleep late problem. I have tried two solutions, 1. I tried HUM WING MAN- liver detox & dark circle which help me LOTS!! 2. I have tear-trough cosmetic surgery treatment to brighten my eye area. another great choice in my case.
I have this problem what did you use
Good Morning Dr Dray! Loving this topic already!! Thanks! 🥰
Hi Dr.Dray I am looking for a affordable tinted sunscreen that I can apply around my eyes to help protect and cover dark circles. Any recommendations would be appreciated. Thank you
I don’t have hyperpigmentation but have very thin skin that gives me dark circles. What can I do for that?
Same 😭
Yep, came here to learn that and was sorely disappointed.
Sameee
Thank you Dr. Dray! Would love to hear your opinion about MLE cosmetic products, does it really rebuilds skin barrier better than regular creams?
Thank u so much for educating us and giving ur precious time to us!!
I've developed dark circles that look like bruises. I mean, I sent a photo recently and my MIL asked if I was injured. It looks that bruise like. I've asked all of my doctors (I have lupus and a bouquet of medical issues, so I just asked ALL of them; you never know) and I heard mostly "I Don't Know" to "Allergies." Finally, my dermatologist (I know it's not skin, but figured ladies or fellas might ask under the heading of appearance) and she said oh yea, that's an allergy issue and she showed my photos, etc and gave me two OTC names, said do these daily (one a pill, one a nasal spary). I did that for 4 months straight; nope. So my quest continues. I've started with the color correcting first, then light cover. It's still there, if you are looking for it, but it's better. Ages me tremendously.
I looked up the pillow she was talking about thinking it'd be like 30 bucks(which is a lot for a pillow imo) turned out it was closer to 200! 😅 Not in my budget but maybe a good long term investment I'll have to wait for like geeezzz
I'm using Dr V Rattan Dark Circles kit. I have dark skin with very bad dark circles. I have tried many expensive eye creams with no luck. I feel I have combination of pigmentation and thin skin that is causing the dark circles.
Love your videos Dr Dray thank you for the content and thank you for drawing my attention to what’s important with skincare - keep it simple ❤️ sending love from UK 🇬🇧
Thank you so much
@@DrDrayzday Hello Dr. Dray..I have hyperpigmenatation on the upper eyelids only...no darkness in the under eye region...what is the cause for this..

Happy Wednesday Dr Dray and peeps ❤️ ❤️ 🥳☀️☕🥰
Happy Wednesday
Happy Wednesday Reed 😊
Thank you! I was for buying a simple improvement cream off of Amazon to be honest lol it’s appreciated :) I chose a Derma E Eye Cream of Vitamin C, Turmeric & Caffeine. Sounds worthwhile!
Omg I just bought a concealer! Thanks for the wonderful videos! :)
Love you Dr.Dray! Question- is a good Vitamin-C serum (like the skinceuticals one you mentioned) a superior anti-oxidant than something like caffeine under sunscreen? Or is caffeine (or any other anti-oxidant) doing the same job, but more likely to penetrate the skin and less likely to oxidize as you said about Vitamin C? Thanks so much Dr.Dray! I love your stuff, and was so proud when you chose Baleaf UV clothing as I had, felt like I made a good choice when you agreed with it!
I might check out her videos on antioxidants including a recent one from April.
@@db-gb5xi Good suggestion-I think I’ll go back and watch it!
Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge always ❤️❤️ hope you have a good day!
Should I use the Caffeine and Vitamin K serums before using a sunscreen?
I'm hoping Dr Dray may notice my comment. I saw that maybe what I have are close comedones or milia but since it was said these bumps eventually go away and mine have never gone away for years now I'm still stuck.
There is an issue I've always had and I haven't seen anyone address whatever this is and how to fix it. Whenever I get acne on my chin the acne always leaves a permanent bump. They're a little lighter than my dark skin and they never go away once the acne has been there. My nose does the same thing. I have had my first bump near my nostrils since I was 13 and I am 30 now. My first permanent bump which is the biggest on my chin has been around since 2011. I have two others on the other side of my nose and they've never gone away. I don't know what to search for to figure out what these are. They don't hurt and no matter how hard I squeeze nothing comes out of them. I don't have a primary doctor, so I don't know how to get professionally seen by a dermatologist. I wish I could find something to reduce this. The more permanent bumps I get the uglier I feel.
@Diana Moore I agree; I had something similar that just would NOT go away. After four months on Differin, they are almost completely gone! 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻. I hope this helps you, AwGurl!
@Diana Moore I have not tried differing but it's on my list of products to try now. Thank you!
@@vetsai8199 I will try differin! I was planning on trying it already but I'm hoping this will also help with this issue I've had for so long now.
I think I have what you’re referring to. I use a clay mask at night and Differin gel during the day. But they come back if I don’t continue. I hate those things!
Hello...I am ur biggest fan.. can u tell me something.. for under eye dark pigmentation Can I use ordinary Alpha arbutin 2%???
Is never a skincare that could actually lightrr dark eye circle
I know caffeine can be very drying, but it’s interesting the Derma-E eye patches have them. I’m sure there are hydrating ingredients in there that combat the drying effect from caffeine. I’ll have to try!
Thank you so much DrDray, it was much needed
Thanks for watching
I find it so cool how you said the zinc oxide cast acts as a brightener because I was thinking that when I sometimes use the Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Zinc around my eyes! It reminded me of the Kat Von D white concealer I’ve never owned but I’ve seen in Sephora :) thanks for your videos, I love all the helpful facts!
I needed this so much!! Thank you Dr. 💖💖
I had fiberblast treatment on eye bags and cut down on salt intake, replacing my salt with Himalayan/pink salt and I got rid of my bags
Excited to try vitamin K!
Dr. Dray my husband is probably so over me talking about you. I found you about 2 weeks ago and I'm obsessed!
Thank you so so soooo much! I used to buy more expensive skincare thinking it was better. I've learned so much through your videos and we have done an a.m p.m routine and I've already noticed a difference. I have a lot of skin problems and I know it'll take time but I'm so excited to actually know about my personal skin and about ingredients!!!!! Now I look at ingredients of everything!!!!!!!!
