Dark circles can be aggravated by fatigue, allergies, overexposure to the
sun, menstruation or pregnancy. But they're usually hereditary; if your
parents have them, there are more chances that you do, too have them.
Dark circles are the result of the engorged blood vessels under your eyes.
Because the skin under eyes is thinner than skin anywhere else on body,
therefore blood vessels there are more noticeable, especially in fair
skinned persons. Usually, dark circles are caused by hyper pigmentation of
melanin, the substance that gives color to the skin.
In western countries, the kidneys are related to the adrenal glands and
with stress levels in life being so high; these glands are very often
exhausted. When these glands are weakened, allergies are prevalent.. Dark
circles under the eyes are known to be a classic symptom of an allergy,
together other signs including edema and fatigue.
Dark circles under eyes may also be due to aging which thins the skin
around the eyes. Eight hours of sleep is essential. Do not leave cream on
the skin around the eyes for long periods. Circles under the eyes can
worsen in people who smoke or suffer from allergies.
