They have always bothered me, and I tried many things to get rid of them or cover them up before I learned there was no way I could literally make my skin "fatter" without cosmetic surgery (fat injections under the eye do exist!). 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.
me too everyone always thinks i'm on drugs, not sleeping/eating, getting beat up and everything. its horrible. does anyone know a good unnoticeable way to hide them.. i'm going to take my senior pictures for school..
