My dark under-eye circles really bothered me – I banished them with a nightly cream, the little jar’s lasted over a year
A BEAUTY guru has revealed the must-try product she used to banish the dark circles under her eyes.
She applied the item as she spoke candidly about how the common skin concern left her feeling insecure.
Jaim (@jjjaimenicole) has garnered almost 215,000 followers on TikTok, where she shares beauty hacks.
She took to the social media platform to reveal a staple of her skincare routine after being asked for tips to get rid of dark circles.
“I had dark circles and I will not hesitate to share how I got rid of them because they used to bother me so much,” she said.
An old photo of her eyes showed the skin underneath was once noticeably darker than the rest of her face.
She held up Ole Henriksen’s Banana Bright eye cream as she began to rave about how it transformed her skin.
“This little thing has lasted me well over a year,” she said. “You really don’t need to use that much.”
Jaim used a cotton bud to scoop a small amount of the cream out of the jar and then began to spread it under her eyes while looking upward.
Her eyes looked hydrated and instantly brighter after applying the cream.
“Every night I use this and it’s amazing,” she said.
Over 1.2 million people liked the video after it went viral and thousands of people took to the comment section saying they were eager to try it for themselves.
Ole Henriksen’s Banana Bright eye cream costs $44 on the brand’s website, where it has a 4-star rating from delighted customers.
The product description says, “Powered by a potent triple vitamin C complex with REAL gold, which improves delivery of vitamin C to the skin.
"Banana Bright+ Eye Crème is clinically formulated to instantly brighten, smooth, and hydrate under the eyes.
“It also visibly reduces fine lines and wrinkles and protects skin against harmful free radicals and pollution.

"Inspired by makeup artist must-have, banana powder instantly-color-corrects and revives tired under eyes.”
Thousands of customers have penned glowing reviews about the effectiveness of the eye cream.
“I saw this product on TikTok so I had doubts but I gave it a chance because my circles are dark and annoying,” one review reads.
“I have been using it for a week and everybody tells me I’m not looking that tired!
“It has become lighter I also see it!
“It is a miracle to me because I have tried many things and now I finally found a product that really helps! I am infinitely grateful!”
According to Healthline, there are several reasons why dark circles may appear under the eyes including age, genetics, allergies, and fatigue.
Dark circles are usually not a cause for alarm but it may be worth speaking to a doctor or dermatologist if they’re getting darker, swelling, or bothering you.
