I have pretty bad dark circles underneath my eyes. Is there a creme or vitamin of something that will help?

Drink lots of water and get plenty of sleep. Cucumbers can help too. Or you can try a under-eye brightening creme. Patricia Wexler, M.D. Under eye Brightening cream is pretty good. I just started using it and so far it's doing it's job. It's $29.50 at victoriassecret.com.

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.

You need to use an anti-shadow eye cream. Nivea, Dove, Olay, Garnier, and Loreal all have them.
Use it morning and night, and try to get enough sleep. You won't notice the difference straight away, but after about a month or so, you'll get some results.

There is a possibility that you are low on iron. Also agree with everyone else that you might need to get more sleep.

You could have an iron deficiency. Try taking a supplement. Sleep will also help.

According to my dermatologist, there is nothing that works. I have had them all my life as well.
