I have these dark circles around my eyes that keep getting worse as I age, in am in my 30's now. I did not have these circles when I was in my 20's. My skin is clear so I normally don't wear foundation, but I think I am going to have to start wearing concealor around my eyes everyday to cover the dark areas, the contrast is really becoming noticable. What can I do? I hate this :cry2:

Try acupuncture. Do you have allergies? This might be the cause.

Thank you. I did a search and I found the product online. How long did it take for the product to work for you?

I saw an improvement overnight. It took 2 weeks to really see drastic improvements.

Wow really! I guess I will at least give this a try then. I can't hurt, I really dont want to wear concealer all the time.

I'm interested in this product too. I got my make-up done in Bloomingdales one time, and the make-up artist could not get over my black/blue circles under my eyes.

Eye Bright Serum from cellularskinrx.com is suppose to be very powerful.

I am 29 years old. They started creeping up when I hit puberty at or 12 years old. Just be sure to follow the instructions.
I should point out that there is a money back guarantee. Please read the testimonials on this site. Either it works great or not at all. When reading through it seemed like a 50/50 ratio of women got good results but then again money back guarantee.
I saw other vendors that sold under eye cream but it was way more expensive then Vita-K.

I know what you mean. I looked around for something I was sure that would work. I was getting tired of all of my pictures coming out with dark circles. I was about to purchase something from H20 for $35.00 until I found this.

Hi Dana, have you actually used this product before? I went to the website and the price is reasonable.
Nikki, did you ever use Vita-K? if so, how did it work for you?

This may help someone:
Treatment for Dark Under Eye Circles Grated potatoes can lighten under-eye circles (http://www.free-beauty-tips.com/under-eye-circles.html#). Potatoes contain an enzyme called catecholase, which is used in cosmetics (http://www.free-beauty-tips.com/under-eye-circles.html#) as a human skin lightener.
Run one spud through your food processor and stuff the raw mash into a piece of cheesecloth.
Apply to the area directly beneath your eye — don't let the potato juice come in contact with the eye itself — and leave for 15 to 20 minutes.
Wipe away the starchy residue

I did try the Vita K. But I did not see much of a difference. I will probably have to try something else.

Hey gurl
if ur ameamic its best you get a good strong iron supplement, this will dramtically reduce the circles, which is due to the blood in your face being stored underneath the skin as its not hyrated or active enough.
Massage under your eyes lightly everymorning before u wash your face
Place an ice cold cloth over your eyes - this wil ltemporarily help (for the day) as it gets circulation pumping.
Another thing, avoid products forthat sorta thing. its INTERNALLY u want to work on 1st. try vegetables like a lady mentioned. potatoes DO work and using to cut cucumbers really helps to. leave em on for half an hour, the cooling sensation is to die for.
hope this helps, i had really dark under eye circles til i took iron (i am slightly aneamic) and did a daily facial massage

Great Thread, I have been wanting to get rid of my dark circles my mom has them bad, but she did not have them when she was younger, I dont know when I got mine but they are really annoying because it alot darker then the rest of my skin, I will try the cucumbers tonight with the massage, but I am confused on what product was suggested, I thought it was Vita K the one you could find in Walgreens, What kind of iron would you suggest taking? or a good brand of vitamins, because I want to really trying eating better thanks
