I also have dark undercircle on the eyes. I've had it since High school and like you I get lots of sleep too. I hear that when you sleep on your sides, the blood tends to travel to one side causing 'bruising' under the eyes? I try to sleep on my back a lot more, get a good supporting pillow. It helps a bit. And I also use Oil of Olay eye cream. It's this anti wrinkle, prevents lines and softens up the color plus other good things. I like it a lot, been using it for over a year. You can buy it any drug store. It's around $16. which I think is a great deal!

Really there is no miracle cure for dark circles.
Proper hydration helps, as well as healthy living, lots of veggies and vitamin supplements.
There are a couple of products on the market, the best one is Hylexin, but it is pricey - about $100.00 for a tube. But it does last a long time.
I use it myself and it does lighten the dark circles in about 10 min., so they can be covered with make up and disappear.
Some people recommend Stryvectin, but I haven't tried it myself.
Also - too much sleep can cause the dark circles.
Contrary to popular beliefs, there is such thing as too much sleep. Anything over 10 hours is not good for you either.

I have very dark circles as well, I use psycians formula yellow based concealer (it helps tone done the darkness of circles) under a concealer that matches your skintone. It helps hide my circles well.

For the short term put some foundation on it, for long term just remember R.A.I.N.
REDUCE the stress level
ALWAYS eat healthy.
INCREASE the hours of sleep per night

Two words: HEMMORRHOID CREAM! Sounds gross because it's supposed to go on your butt, I know, but if you dab (not rub, dab) a tiiiiiiiny bit under your eyes each morning, it will help with the color and puffiness under your eyes. It works absolute wonders.

Dark circles around the eyes can get serious. Please get a cream (Avon has some good ones) and if it doesn't get better, talk to a dermatologist.
