Answer 1

i am 14 too.
its a bit of a splurge but...the chanel eye delay works great.
apply with ur ring finger and dab on the bottom and then move in a circular movement around your eye.
it works great.

The key to eliminating dark circles really is exercise. You like most people might have a condition known as Naso-jugal Fold – [you can easily get this fixed now a days – website on the bottom in source.] But it’s caused by fat in the back of your eye that is pushing up wards which created the dark shadow look you may be experiencing which kind of makes your face look more tired and perhaps your eyes as well look hollow. I myself have this problem but I exercise regularly and it’s virtually disappearing. I tend to sweat under my eyes like crazy – sweat glands. And my eyes look better. If it really bugs you try running for 48 min for a straight week and it should get better plus it’ll boost your self confidence greatly – with time, also watch your diet – my face tends to gain weight way faster then the rest of my body for some reason. Always keep hydrated – helps the under eye area look 10% more refreshed. Or if you’re not interested at all in fitness you could go get what’s called a eyelid operation called blepharoplasty to correct the problem, but when fat is removed during the Blepharoplasty, the dark circle or Naso-jugal Fold and hollow appearance can be made worse. But really if you look around, go to the gym – you don’t see hardly anyone with that problem – really exercise is the key, but then again not always.

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.

Ann M-

Low on iron is your cause before calcium - so before blaming your genes or sleep problems try adding more iron to your diet or add a dietary supplement - with iron (vitamins)
More water

Arbonne makes two eye creams effective for this problem.
Also their concealer not only covers it helps rid the problem while it hides it - just worth mentioning.

Answer 5

well some are hereditary. all u need to do is go to the store and get some Loreal eye cream. it MAY diminish them, depending on your circles. i have really dark circles, so i look like a racoon. sometimes stuff does not work like i am recommending you. you might have to go to the dermatologist if u would like. i bought 100$ creme and used it for a month and it still did not work. if u want them gone, just keep using cremes and stuff for months. it takes a while for them to go away trust me. if u are just tired then they only last a little while. good luck!
cremes at stores only cost around 10 - 20$

Answer 6

LACK OF SLEEP as u yourself mentioned might be a prominent reason alongside constipation,anaemia.watsoever b the reason but if the cause is lack of sleep then few things might help:put peeled and grated cucumber(may even put in slices thinly cut) and potato same way and cold wet tea bags.try watsoever is easy and suitable for u.for other problems contact your nearest doc.i hope it removes your problem.its not healthy to hide using concealer.

Answer 7

Well it means you need more calcium. I have them too sometimes. Other then trying to get more calcium i have this makeup for those circles under your eyes. It is tan and blends into your skin. Well you could buy it if you are a girl.
