    Dark circles under the eyes can be a since that you're lacking in Vitamin B12. This can be found in most cereals ie. Cornflakes but you might want to try asking your doctor who can test for any deficiencies with a simple blood test if you're still worried. You could also try a good light reflecting concealer. I know, I know, it's a bit girly but if it's getting to you then I'd give it a go. I'm sure your friends will never know :)

    Some women have dark circles if they lose a lot of blood during their menses. That along with a fibroid cyst, can cause a lot of blood loss and very dark circles. I found that after having surgery to relieve the excess bleeding, my circles are just about gone. I had the surgeries two years ago.

    Well, the best way is to get more sleep, power naps are good if you don't have much time but eating lots of fruit can help, stress can also be a cause so try reducing stress, but the best way to cover them up would be to use a good highlighter such as Touche Eclat by Yves Saint Laurent, it's quite expensive but worth it as it completely covers them up and last ages,

    hope this helps xx

    try this natural remedy tip, it is supposed to help with dark circles under the eyes:

    "...use vitamin C-rich raw potatoes. You simply grate a large potato and squish the pulp and juices into a poultice which you apply and leave on the skin overnight.The idea is that this simple remedy creates a nourishing skin food to regenerate skin tissue at the cellular level and leave the skin looking clear and revitalised..."

    ive heard that dark green vegetables help, like spinach. also try putting cucumber slices or green tea bags over your eyes for about 15 minutes a day.

    get thin slices of cucumber and put them on your eyes (close them of course) and leave them there for about 15 - 2- minuets.

    And do that once a day for a few weeks.

    But for the love God don't open your eyes, I did once and it burned for hours! =S

    Hope I helped =)
