It is also one of the best treatments for women who have discolorations under the eyes. It is a powerful antioxidant that improves your skin's health. In addition, it works deep in the layers of skin to rebuild elastin and thin skin, often the source of discoloration.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThus, the skin will appear healthier, brighter, and even younger.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin K's primary use is for bruises and wounds on the skin. On the face, it most typically takes the form of under-eye darkness. In fact, most believe dark under-eye circles are caused by insufficient sleep.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut, discoloration is more likely caused by stress and using un-friendly products. The underlying cause of \u003ca href=\"\/products\/uplift-eye-cream\" title=\"underlying cause of these dark circles\"\u003edark circles\u003c\/a\u003e is broken capillaries. These deposit blood particles in the hollow space beneath the eye.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWith a bruise, an impact breaks the blood vessel and leaks into the skin.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cimg style=\"float: right;\" alt=\"Vitamin K Helps Strengthen Mature Skin\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0069\/7719\/1993\/files\/vitamin-k-rich-foods.jpg\"\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eVitamin K can help reduce the darkness of under-eye circles. It works by increasing blood flow to the area. This will collect and carry away any deposited particles that cause darkness. It can also help improve broken capillaries that have been containing these particles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBringing more blood to an area leaking blood may seem a little counter-intuitive. The continually broken and leaking capillaries sign that the location does not have the resources it needs to function correctly. The influx of blood brings the nutrients and structures the skin needs to be healthy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOnce the particles have been carried away and the capillaries are healthy, the under-eye area appears much brighter and more natural-looking.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eOther Benefits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis ingredient's other primary purpose is to increase elastin in the under-layers of the skin. As we age, this component of our skin begins to break down. Additionally, it is the major underlying cause of hollowness and wrinkles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAs cells can no longer retain moisture, the face loses its plump appearance. As a result, it has a hard time bouncing back into place. Applying Vitamin K helps restart the skin's elastin production, which creates the skin's ability to grow plumper, firmer layers. In addition, firmness improves the appearance of fine lines.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFinally, Vitamin K can help improve thin skin and \u003ca href=\"\/products\/fade-away-serum\" title=\"fade discolorations serum\"\u003efade discolorations\u003c\/a\u003e. It is one of the most effective anti-aging ingredients on the market.
