Answer 1

I'm also 24 and had the same problem, although I'm a girl so took out the old cover up and voila! problem solved. I'm guessing you don't want to do that, so I'll share with you what i found out about dark circles...
this is from the mayo clinic website (i love their website because you can find answers that are short and sweet and you know it's reliable because it's the Mayo Clinic!)

Almost everyone gets dark circles under their eyes from time to time. Dark circles under eyes usually are temporary and not a medical concern.

You may be surprised to learn that fatigue usually isn't the cause of dark circles. Instead, the most common cause is nasal congestion. When your nose is congested, veins that usually drain from your eyes into your nose become widened (dilated) and darker.

Another cause of undereye circles is eyelid swelling during sleep. When you lie down, gravity can cause fluid to collect in your lower eyelids. This swelling may create the appearance of shadows below your eyes. In addition, dark circles can result from chronic skin conditions, such as atopic eczema. Dark circles can also run in families.

Over-the-counter products may help diminish dark circles under eyes. Look for skin creams that contain vitamin C or K, alpha hydroxy acid and kinetin. Treatment for chronic and severe undereye circles is directed at the underlying cause, if known, and may include bleaching agents and laser therapy.

Answer 2

I have the same problem.The best choice is usually prescription,but I can't afford that right now.I have seen it work.Another thing that I've seen work is Revitalizing Eye Treatment from Aveda...or a few visits to an esthetician at a spa might do the trick.It's lightened my eyes a little bit,but again,I can't afford to keep going.
