Though I don't have bags, the skin under my eyes if very dark. It has been since I was a child. A dermatologist told my mom that it was from allergies.
I have always gotten lots of sleep and the dark circles never go away or even seem to get better. I dont' know of any cream that can make them go away. I've tried enough products and none lighten. Some products make them appear lighter by reflecting light from the area.
I just conceal and go on with my day.

It could be allergies. Concealers genrally don't work very well. I recommend getting make up a shade lighter and carefully blending it under the eye on the affected areas. Of course, treatment of the allergies would also decrease the dark spots. You should also cut down on the smoking and drinking.

Being worn out (stress, being sleepy, whatever) and possibly the drinking/smoking if you do either to excess. Putting something cold over your eyes can help. Also, taking a weekend off to relax would probably make you feel better in general.

itcan be many things, smoking and drinking will dry out and age your skin quicker, not drinking enough water , just generally being older etc. you can help them by using a vitamin eye cream and slices of cucumber or cold teabags on your eyes.

i know that if you sleep flat your skin moves up your face slightly so try sleeping propped up to stop from being puffy also when putting creams on your face dont drag down as this stretches the skin

preperation h (**** cream) is good for this but not to be used as a long time solution as it thins the skin . which is already very thin and delicate under your eyes
