i’ve read that dark circles may be caused by a vitamin deficiency, particularly, vitamin K. i know because i suffer from them myself. i started taking a multivitamin each day, for the dark circles and my health in general. i have to admit, they aren’t nearly as bad.
I have not yet found a home remedy to take away the dark under my eyes, does anyone know how effective cucumbers can be? let me know what works, i really want my eyes back like they were…..

Please see this question/answer. And see ### below – a response from Wannabeblue28 who says treatment gave her a greatly improved skin and got rid of under eye bags/circles after one night’s treatment:
Question "How can you get your face really smooth and clear, free of all blemishes and even toned and lessen or get rid of under eye bags/circles?"
My answer:
."…..I’ve had incredible results massaging with essential oils.They are safe. Oils such as almond, olive, grape seed are good. Almond and grape seed are suitable for every skin type. Quickly and permanently healed ALL of my many skin conditions, rid face of all blemishes and even scars, gave me an even skin tone and a clear, healthy and radiant skin. It’s best to quite vigorously massage into skin. In just two days you will get dramatic results. Massage will tighten skin a lot in eye area and thus greatly diminish or completely get rid of bags.

I’ve seen lots of these home remedies for dark circles under the eyes, but no one explains how or why they work. Could someone explain how tea bags, cucumbers, ect. help?
Dark circles under the eyes are referred to as bags usually from lack of sleep, not eating right, or perhaps drug abuse. The only way to get rid of the is eat right, get more sleep, and don’t do the other unhealthy things. All the stuff you mentioned is to keep your skin moisturized and healthy.
i have really dark circles under my eyes…so bad that my mom and my best friend asked me if i had bruises under my eyes…yeah its that bad!!! i dont wanna spend a ton of $$$ just to fix it. help?!
Sleep or stop doing heroin.
I have been having trouble sleeping, and I have dark circles under my eyes. It’s my first day at work and I don’t want to look like a total zombie. Anyone know of any quick fixes?
I know this may sound a little strange, but stick a spoon in your refrigerator/freezer the night before you sleep. Than when you wake up in the morning, put them uner your eyes. This should be a quick cure. Another way to fix it… put on makeup, unless your guy.
To take care of the troubled sleeping… you know those allergy pills? Those help quite a bit, I haven’t tried it but everytime I take one, I always fall asleep. Or read a very boring book before you sleep ( Textbook ). That one always helps.
Most of it is genetic. I have them to. Just get lots of sleep, and try not be stressed to much. I also have heard that when you cry a lot under eye circles appear darker. Not sure if it’s true tho. Also drink plenty of water. Getting a bit of color in your face as well as putting cold spoons under eyes may help. Get ShiSeido Benefiance Revitalizing Cream. I got mine from Macy’s and just a tiny dab of it does wonders on dark circles. I have pretty bad ones so this is all from experience.
Hope this helps.
