How to lighten the dark circles under my eyes
How can I lighten the darks under my eyes aside from sleeping better? They're really bad to the point that I've been asked if I had a black eye! It's downright embarrassing!
Vitamins? Creams? Massages?

I can't tell you how to prevent / lighten them since I don't know the cause of them. It could just be sleep but some people also just get this naturally. You may have to ask a dr. or skin specialist to determine that.
I CAN tell you how to cover it up though.
You need a YELLOW coverup. Just like a regular coverup stick but instead of skin tone color it is yellow. You can find them almost anywhere. They have cheap ones that work fine at any beauty place and they also sell them at the fancy dept. store makeup counters.
Anyway- you put the yellow on first, then apply your regular foundation on top of it.
It will mask the purpl-y circles under your eyes since yellow and purple are opposite colors on the color wheel. When opposites are on top of each other they cancel each other out- like a positive and a negative.
Hope that helps. :-)

PS- The GREEN coverup works the same way, only you use that to cover something red- like a pimple- because green and red are opposites.
