me too girl! i think they are hereditary becuz i have a relatively healthy lifestyle, yet ive always had these dark circles. there are so many bogus treatments out there so do your research before you waste your time. Things i have noticed to work, LOTS OF SLEEP. lots of water. dont rub that skin hard, its too sensitive. And if you havent got a special under eye cream, its time to invest. Mine did not become unnoticeable until i started using special creams under my eyes. I currently use kinerase and strivectin alternatively and my dark circles are unnoticeable. They are not gone completely but very very very much reduced.
kinerase and strivectin are pretty expensive tho, $59 & $75 so youll probably want to try some drugstore types first. I used loreal and it made a big difference. they'll never go away, only healthy diet and sleeping habits along with some super eye cream will reduce them, but i never saw any worse than mine and mine are no longer an issue. Good luck!

I have the same problem! No matter how much sleep i get, these dark circles dont go away.
Drink plenty of water, also i use a cream called "Nivea - Aqua Sensation: ANti-Shadow eye cream. This is supposed to get rid of dark circles and bags under the eye =)
Ok hehe, seeing as you are alergic, drink ALOT of water, at least 2 letres a day. Alot of sleep. That should do the trick, its the water that will help =)

Try some sort of eye cream that is hypoallergenic and contains ingredients such as cucumber and caffeine. Dark circles are also hereditary, so a lot of times there isn't a lot that you can do for them, save plastic surgery.
If need be, use a hypoallergenic concealer and try to match your skin tone as close as possible. Do not buy one that is too much lighter than your actual skin tone, as you will end up with white circles instead. Best of luck.

Rubbing Vitamin K cream under my eyes makes my dark circles almost go away. You might want to try it, if so, hope it works for you.

Well, some can come from heredity. Maybe it's in the family. Or maybe it's not. You can try putting cucumbers on your eyes for 15-20 minutes.

It is often just heredity but it can also mean you're not getting enough oxygen. If you snore or have sleep apnea it can give you dark circles.
