Any good eye creams that help get rid or reduce dark circles underneath eyes?

Question

I have had pesky dark circles underneath my eyes ever since I was a child from heriditary(?). What sucks is that I am a girl and it really bothers me and it takes a toll on self confidence. I have had people asking me if I had gotten punched in both eyes. I hate taking picture because all I could see is my eyes. I have nice green eyes and people always compliment me about them but I hate the fact about what surrounds it. So my question is does anyone know any good eye creams that help reduce and possibly get rid of dark eye circles???? Could you also tell me if you've used any products that didn't work. I've heard about Dermalex, but it seems to be getting mixed reviews. Thanks so much!

Massage the area with pure almond oil. Check out http://useinfo-darkcircles.blogspot.com/ for more info.

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. :)

None of the creams do anything at all. Nothing. I have permanent dark circles myself. They are worse when allergies flare up, so I make sure to take allergy meds like Claritin when I need to.

The only things that help with the circles is cosmetics... used very sparingly. You know about concealers, I'm sure. There is also a product called brightener or illuminating cream... it's pearly and almost transparent, and reflects light a little. It seems to help without adding anything that can wrinkle or cake.

Do you have any sort of skin problems or sleep apnea? Dark spots under your eyes usually come about because of allergies, skin problems or not getting good sleep at night. I'm not too familiar with skin products but I would recommend you go to a dermatologist and get tested for allergies.
