The good part is that there are a few things that you might be doing that are making things worse. Stress, unhealthy eating, vitamin/mineral deficiencies and smoking can make them worse.
As you age, the circles can darken (your estrogen levels will drop) and the force of gravity will also make the circles look larger.
Skin creams that contain Vitamin C or K, alpha hydroxy acid and kinetin will help lighten the dark circles. They also do laser treatment that affects the pigment of the skin and whitens it. Some people also buy bleaching items to bleach the area.

There are many causes of dark circles, from age, heredity, allergies, cold or sinus infection, bone structure and glasses which are not so commonly known.

If you would like to apply home remedies to reduce dark circles, here are some of my suggestions:
Buy a box of regular, old fashioned unflavored gelatin (e.g. Knox) from grocery store. Take a small cup or bowl and put in 1 teaspoon of the gelatin mix. Add one tablespoon of boiling water & stir for a minute. Test it on your wrist to make sure it is not too hot. Then, using a cotton ball, pat it under your eyes as you would an eye cream or gel. Go lie down and listen to some music, or take a bath & let it stay on for at least 30 minutes. Then just rinse it off.Gelatin is very high in Vitamin K & Biotin. It will not remove your dark circles on the first application (but you will notice a difference), but if you do it daily for a week, and then 2-3 times a week for maintenance, you should notice a drastic reduction in dark circles.

Some of the dark circles are inhierted . There are bleaching creams that you can use and cover up creams.
Some of them are caused from not enough sleep too.

They're there because your not getting enough sleep. Or your stressed out. Good luck with them!
