I've had to learn to live with them and cover them up the best I can, which is difficult as they are really too dark to hide; makeup only makes them look worse. I'm going to try a couple of the remedies others have tried here and see if it might make any temporary improvement.
hey same here .. and i also notice that my dark circles become worse after i start wearing glasses ( already wearing glasses more than 10 years now ). I've not plan changing my glasses to contact lenses because i think i've "contact lenses" phobia haha.. as i'm not used to putting some external object "on" my eyes.
