I always have dark circles under my eyes and lately they have been looking really puffy and swollen. Are there any secret remedies or killer products out there that I should try?

Sleep enough and always (or mostly) at the same time, eat healthy food and enough food, drink lots of water, spend some time outside and get enough fresh air, and it never hurts to get some extra vitamins !
Staying a lot in front of a PC or TV screen also tires your eyes and gets you those circles ;)

buy concealer a shade lighter than what you use for your face....try one that has like a yellow hue to it and NOT a pink hue....alsoe when you put that concealer on ..put some on your eyelids..it actually makes a difference

you should get a good eye cream and then a really good concealer :) Benefit makes a really good concealer called erase paste that you could try. The also make a depuffing gel that is out of this world. If you wanted to depuff your eyes a different way put ur eye cream in the refrigerator and when you get up put it under your eyes the coolness of it should depuff you a little :) I hope this was helpful :)

I suffer from the dark circles. Only I have one under my left eye. And not the other. So it looks like I have a black eye all the time. I have found that the Garnier Nutritioniste (sp??) Under Eye Roller Helps greatly. I put that on morning and night. In the mornings as I am doing my eye makeup I use the Physician's Formula Concealer Stick (it has two ends. One with a yellow concealer and the other you pick to match your skin color) followed by my face powder. This usually works completely and you can barely see anything.

if your eyes are puffy in the morning. put some cold milk on a cotton pad and press them onto your eyes for about 5 minutes. that should do the trick (:

I actually went to a Sephora makeup store where they had licensed cosmetologists and I actually had one help me pick out a concealer. I'm INSANELY pale (think Twilight vampires, people) so my dark circles look more like black eyes. And this concealer (the only thing I can remember at this moment is that the shade is Wild Rose), but it's a miracle concealer. Go to a good cosmetic store like that and ask for help. And don't apply it with your fingers, spend a little extra and buy a concealer brush. The brush and concealer together cost me almost 50 dollars but I feel more confident knowing I don't look like a zombie, so it's way worth it in the long run! And they have the concealer in almost every day, and it works amazingly on acne, scars and everything else along with the dark circles.

Hi girls! From all my research, I have found two solutions to this problem:

Makeup: Try a salmon concealer. Yellow one might also work for you, like from a MAC store, or one from Makeup Forever ( the palette). Salmon one works best as all the makeup artists recommend it.

Natural: Try sleeping atleast eight hours everyday. It might be allergies, go see a doctor or try taking an antihistamne. Apply cucumber juice and honey under your eyes. REDUCE YOUR STRESS LEVEL. Stress can make you look haggard, tired and it can also cause dark under eye circles, sometimes ones that won't go away. Try resting your eyes more, after every fifteen minutes when you are on the computer. The eyes were not meant to take so much strain. Try putting used green tea bags under your eyes. They work wonders for me, but ofcourse, temporarily.

NOTE: Dark under eye circles tend to be genetic. If they are stress related, or sleep related, you will see a difference almost immediately if you sleep well and reduce your stress levels. f they are allergy related, you will see a difference just by taking antihistamines, but do consult your doctor first. If they are genetic, you won't really see much of a difference in reduction. The only way you CAN feel a difference is if you sleep 8 hours a day, and that also at night. The best time to sleep is at 10 p.m till 4 a.m or later. This will improve your under eye bags and dark circles hugely.

Hope this helped to some extent.

Thanks!! ^_^
