Why is Vitamin K such a sought-after ingredient in eye cream?
Vitamin K is very important in taking care of those dark eye rings we occasionally have. Dark eye rings are mainly caused by lifestyle stresses, like late nights, lack of sleep, certain allergies, and so on. Sometimes, over-vigorous rubbing of eyes can also cause dark eye rings. In all these cases, the blood vessels around the eyes become “leaky” and blood plasma and red blood cells leak out from the blood vessels and become visible because the skin around the eyes is very thin. Vitamin K has the ability to heal these blood vessels and stop the leaking of blood around the eye area, thereby alleviating the dark eye rings. A bit of trivia for you: in 1943, 2 scientists by the names of Henrik Dam and Edward Doisy won the Nobel Prize for medicines for their work on Vitamin K. Shows you how cool this vitamin is.
