Try a cold compress. Close your eyes and cover them with a cold washcloth for about five minutes. Repeat several times throughout the day. That will help constrict your blood vessels, minimizing darkness, and it may help minimize tissue swelling and eliminate some of the darkness.

Hide 'em. More opaque than foundation makeup, cream concealer is made to order for under-eye darkness. Select a cream concealer that's a little lighter than your skin when wearing it under foundation (or the same shade as your skin when wearing the concealer alone). "Paint" the concealer with a small brush into the dark areas. Then take your pinky finger and very lightly pat the edges to blend it in. Finally, powder lightly to help the concealer stay put.

Spread on the sunscreen. Use a sunscreen especially made for the face with a sun protection factor (SPF) of at least 15, but preferably 20, all day every day, to keep the sun's rays from darkening the skin under your eyes.

Supplement your foundation. Some foundation makeups contain SPFs of 6 or 8. For full protection you'll still need either a moisturizer or a sunscreen lotion with an SPF of 15.

Eye cream: The newest option. If your circles persist, try an opaque eye cream such as Lancome's Expressive.

Alpha hydroxy acids, used in many newer eye creams decrease wrinkles and lighten and smooth the skin.The most common alpha hydroxy acids are glycolic acids (extracts derived from fruit and other plants). Other new eye creams that look promising include Renova and the cosmetic Cellex-C eye contour cream or gel (a topical vitamin C).

The most obvious answer is to get more sleep, but some people have a genetic tendency to develop dark circles faster.
Try using a cooling gel or cream, designed specially for the eye area. Never use normal moisturizers, as they are to heavy for the delicate eye area.
Also invest in a cooling eye mask. (It looks like those airplane eye patch sleeping masks, but is filled with cool gel)
Alternatively, slices of cucumber on the eyes for 5-10Min's help.
If you wear make-up YSL (Yves Saint Lauren), has a great product called Touche Eclait, which is a concealer designed for the eye area, with light reflecting pigments, that hides the circles. (There are many other brands with similar products, but theirs is the best)
Wear it under your usual concealer or powder, it works wonders.
Hope this help.

there are different creams for the eye area which are supposed to do that...
however, I have been told (by a homepathist, though) that
if one has this permanently, it indicates a failure in the liver-meridian.
(which says NOT that there's something wrong with
your liver, but with that complex).

If you believe in such things, go see a homepathist
yourself.
