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.

HI there. Id love to help you and I hope what I tell you can help you. If you look at my picture can you tell i have any flaws? Underneath that makeup I have the most hideous DEEP scars from acne. . I use a makeup called DERMABLEND. You buy the makeup (variety of shades) you can buy a dark and one light to mix together to find your shade, that's what I do.. then you buy the setting powered which is necessary to use after the makeup. Its very easy to apply, just apply on your face, use the setting powder and brush off. Its simply just wonderful. Just try it, i know you will love it. It covers anything from acne, scars, blemishes, stretchmarks, discoloration,pigmentation, birthmarks, even tattoos, and more. Give it try. Its not just makeup, its leg and body cover as well. :-)Good Luck!
For a cream to help clear them, try HYLEXIN. (made for serious dark under eye circles)

Would be better off to make sure you get plenty of rest and vitamins.....that would take care of the dark circles....make them go away instead of covering them up!

I only use Perscriptives make up. You can find it at any department store and they are the leading foundation and conceler experts. They only really specialize in foundation and conceler so they have tons of different types of coverages and colors that match the undertones of your skin to ensure the perfect match. I never find that they cake up under my eyes and they have spf to help prevent the wrinkles.

Amazing Cosmetics concealer or id Bare Minerals "Well Rested" (the latter also works well as an eyeshadow primer!)

A concealer that's as close to your skin tone as possible. A shade lighter then your own should be perfect, but try your best to get as close to your skintone as you can.

that's what I use, and it works well. Just apply it on the dark circles before you do your make-up and just gently rub it in and then apply your regular foundtaion over it.
