Dark circles under eyes

Dark circles under the eyes are an extremely common and distressing issue. Dark circles make you look older, tired, stressed, sick, depressed and just plain bad. The skin below our eyes is thin and is not as well endowed with oil glands as the rest of the body. Consequently as we age, the skin gets dry and wrinkled. As a result, the veins in the lower eye area appear more prominent. This results in dark circles under the eyes.
Three things contribute to dark rings under the eyes:

  • an inherited tendency
  • natural aging processes
  • lack of sleep
