Id this is inborn, sorry but you really could not get rid of them unless you do some costly dermatological processes. If you are not ready to spend that much, the most that you could do is to help yourself the natural way by applying cold cuts of cucumber for 20 minutes everyday or cold grated potatoes. You can also apply milk and let it go dry for few minutes then rinse. But mind you these will not totally erase the dark circles but will only lighten to look much better. Remember also that your dark circles could be due to lack of iron so you have to check this out. If so, you will have to take in lots of green veggies, grapes, raisens, prunes and natural iron supplements from health stores. Avoid synthetic supplements as these are not good for your liver. Avoid these late nights, get plenty of sleep at least 8 hours a day and drink plenty, plenty of water.

i also have dark circles around my eyes. others put some cucumber in their eyes because they believe that it will also help remove or rather reduce their dark circle around their eyes. aside from that, you should also avoid sleeping too late to lessen it. good luck with that

I also have problems with my under eye. It's been dark ever since I guess. I'm trying to just hide it a little with a concealer that's why I guess I can't live without a concealer hahaha.. Anyway, try concealers, it might at least solve your under eye problem when you go out.

Yeah... I'm doing the same too but sometimes the concealer can't really cover my dark circles and they looks horrible!

There is no cure. You can make them lighter, but it all depends on the cause of them. If you drink tea, coffee or other caffeine products STOP! and this should reduce the darkness of them. If you regularly get little or too much sleep try getting 8 hours a night and this can lighten them up a bit, but I don't think there is anything you can do to actually get rid of them.

I, too, have dark circles. they are inherited. I just live with them. Most of the time I don't even pay attention to them. I do know that if you don't get enough sleep, or if you rub your eyes (ie, allergies), it'll make your eyes look a lot worse. If you are overweight, this may make your eyes look worse too. Just take care of yourself and you'll look your best.

first of all how did u get these dark circles. sleeping late, too much in the computer. that is wht one skin analyst told me when she saw my eyes. so i told her, yes to both. So i guess first we have to be little more conscious abt sleeping early and not sitting too much with the computer. Well i dunno i just developed them recently. I just bought loreal and I am using it. Well i guess slowly it vil work.
