    I've had them all my life. I used to be super self conscious about them, but I'm okay with them now. AFAIK, there's no way to get rid of them if they're not due to lack of sleep.

    do you rub your eyes? if you do, eye-rubbing can stimulate the blood vessels so they look bigger and more pronounced and are closer to the skin. as someone else mentioned, allergies can also be a culprit.

    but i don't think there's any magical cure. i came out of the womb with mine -- the doctor took one look at me and told my parents, "she'll be an allergic child", apparently basing this assumption on my dark under-eye circles. (i wasn't an allergic child, but i did get sick a lot, strep and ear infections and pink eye and stuff). and... i've still got the circles. sometimes they get better and worse, and it doesn't seem to be connected to any particular factor.
    i wear makeup :-/. i use the bare minerals concealer. i think "bisque" is the lightest, it's been working well for me. i hate makeup, but this is the easiest to use, in my opinion.
