Question

Answer 1

Ditch the Dark Circles
Before you go to bed, peel and slice a potato. Close your eyes and cover your eyelids with slices of raw potato, using a bandanna to secure the potatoes while you sleep. Do this three times a week. You should start to see gradual improvement.
How it works: The potatoes have the same enzyme used in expensive cosmetic creams to lighten the skin.

You can also mix equal portions of almond oil and honey and massage the mixture into the dark circles around your eyes before going to bed. Wash it off in the morning.
How it works: The honey acts as a moisturizer. The oil gently exfoliates, stimulating the skin cells around the eyes. This tightens and eventually lightens loose skin around the eyes. It has the dual effect of getting rid of wrinkles around the eyes, too.

Answer 2

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.

Answer 3

I would guess you have allergies if you are not staying up all night or using certain drugs. It is the number one thing I see in my patients with allergies. I work at an allergy clinic giving immunotherapy shots. I would try an over the counter non-drowsy antihistamine. Like Claritin. If your serious about getting rid of the dark circles you could try that for a couple of weeks and see if it clears up. In the mean time you could just try using some sort of cover up makeup.

If that doesn't work you should see your physician it could be a more serious medical problem, not to freak you out or anything, it could be nothing.
