For example, if you don’t get enough sleep, then you need to make sleep a priority. Once you start getting more sleep, you will notice that your dark circles start to slowly fade away.

Another way to get rid of them is to apply almond oil under your eyes, just before bed. If you don’t have almond oil, you can use vitamin E oil as this is just as effective. When you are applying any one of these oils to the skin under your eyes, be sure to carefully massage it into your skin and you will soon see the dark pigmentation clearing away.

Lastly, you can cut cucumber into big slices, refrigerate them for 40 minutes and then place the slices on top of your eyes, over the dark circles and allow them to rest for 15 minutes. When the time has elapsed, simply wash the area with cool water and repeat this about twice per week.
