have the same dark circles my whole life....they are usually hereditary are related to you health....mine are what my doctor calls "allergic shiners " hahaha but I have never been able to get rid of them except for a few months when I was taking an antihistamine I felt GREAT on but then they took it off the market because a few people died of heart attacks from it :-(  It was the only antihistamine that EVER really fully worked on all my symptoms!!  Figures hahaha but what I do now is cover them UP!! Using a cool tecnigue I learned to make them look less noticeable .You use a yellow cream where you have the dark areas under you base make up ...Use green makeup for any red areas you may have.....(women who have the dark circles often have red blotches elsewhere) You can find these at any cosmetic counter but the best I have found were from a company I had to send away from ..They are creamer ...called Le Club   You can find them on the net Hope this helps you!! Good luck
