    Purple bags under eyes
    I have really bad dark, purple bags under my eyes. Is there any way to reduce them or make them go away completely?

    You can use concealer under your makeup or you can take vitamin B-3. This helps with your circulation. I have had this problem for years and the vitamins can make a difference. It will take a few weeks before you see any results though. The color will lessen due to getting more circulation of the blood in that area.

    Bags under the eyes are a symptom of excess fluids and fat that settles into the area. Other factors include genetics, aging, fluid retention, lack of sleep and allergies.

    For temporary results, you can try using sliced cucumbers or potatoes around your eyes to reduce the under eye bags. For longer lasting results, use an under eye cream daily, it can improve the appearance of dark circles and bags. Eye creams that contains Vitamin K and Vitamin C will help diminish under-eye bags and puffiness.

    Tried vitamin K and C creams with no success. Only thing worked was the vitamins (vit B-3 or niacinamide) taken internally to remedy the blood circulation. Cucumbers are okay, too, but they didn't do much for me except make me hungry for a salad. There is no quick fix and I've tried them all, believe me.
