Before i never have dark eye circles. even if i don`t get enough sleep. But a few days ago i started to wake up with dark eye circles under my eyes and it won` go away. it kinda fades away a little bit in the afternoon but then it`s still there. does anyone know why? and how do i get rid of it or at least hide it? i don`t wanna go out like this >.< pinch.gif

[i wear glasses too. do i get da circles if i wear glasses too much?]

Concealer is the best way to go. but make sure it works for your skin tone, because if it doesnt, it will make it look even worse. If I was you, I would try Clinique Quick Corrector...You can get it at a Clinique makeup counter, and one of their consultants or w/e u wanna call them will find out which color works best with your skin tone.I use it, and it works great!

Or what you can try to do on top of concealer is try buying one of those facial masks that have water in them, place them in the freezer and freeze it then put it right on your eyes for about 20-30 mins before you go to bed. Try that for about a week. You can find those masks almost anywhere. I have seen some at a dollar store before.

Try sleeping more. I heard it's there because you don't sleep enough. I have eyeliner on that's faded and it looks like i have that.

dark circles aren't always because you don't get enough sleep or you are too tired. it also has to do with your diet and if your body is getting proper nutrition. the best way to hide it is by using concealer, but i think you should get a shade darker then your normal concealer so you won't have "raccoon eyes".

None of the concealers work with my skin color. So I just get a good amount of sleep that's healthy for my age.
Google it.
Concealer doesn't always work. ;)

Well here in arkansas, you can get it at Belks and Dillards. But you might be able to find it in other department stores as well.

I have asked this question for years. When I was young I had dark circles and now that I have a lot of homework and don't sleep much they look really bad. It could be lack of sleep or food allergies (I think it is both for me). Yea I use concealer to cover them slightly, but you can still see it a little. It's pretty much the best you can do, goodluck!

eye creams made especially for dark circles usually alleviate the problem.. cucumbers probably help a bit too..

Dark Eye Circles? blink.gif hmm probably because you don't sleep that much or you watch the tv way too much or do internet way too much? I don't know, but I don't have a dary eye circles mellow.gif even though I watch too much tv and internet...but it happens to some people I guess.

or you can use those skin powders to match your skin colors... i dont know if they sell it in america, but i have seen them in korea..my auntie has them..they are kinda expensive so yeah... it's really good cause your scars, your molds, your pimples in your face...you can't hardly see em'... hm... sorry i cant help you to get the product, but try asking the people who works for make up stuff... they might know? try asking "skin powders that can match your skin colors"

yeah, i have those too now that I have so much homework and don't get nearly enough sleep. what helps a bit for me is to put green tea bags on my eyes for about 15 min.. hot but not burning hot. It feels really good and it helped to lighten mine. _smile.gif
Also my mom keeps telling me that wearing glasses too much makes the circles worse/keeps them there. Although I wore contacts for the entire winter break and my dark circles got a lot better, I don't know if it's because of the contacts or because of all the extra sleep.

sleeping (obviously), and drinking lots of water generally make my circles go away. i might try that tea bag thing ^^^ sometime, sounds relaxing!

^^ cool idea, never heard of that before

try tea bags. Sleep more , remove eye makeup and use concealer. When putting on the concealer, be careful of the skin under your eyes because it is very thin, so sort of "dab" it on
