Does anyone have a product or treatment for this? I am just tired of walking around looking like I'm a zombie. I don't sleep well, but don't want to look like it!

do you have allergies? Frequently allergies can cause dark circles. I tried clinque under eye roller ball thing and it didn't work.

I am a mom of 3 and sell & use Mary Kay Cosmetics. Check out my website at www.marykay.com/stephanir. Someone else already posted the eye revitalizer, but I would recommend the soothing eye gel. I can ship you some today if you are interested. You will see an immediate change even if it is allergies.

I think the old "cold cucumber on top of the eyes" is the best way to get rid of dark circles and take away the puffiness. Just cut off some thin slices and lay back and relax with them sitting on top of your eyes. Cut a couple pairs so you can put another two on when the current ones aren't cold anymore. Good Luck.

Try putting slices of cool cucumbers on your eyes.
Refrigerate cucumber over night. Slice two round slices
not too thick or too thin. Lay down , close your eyes, put the cucumber
slices on each eye, relax for 15 minutes. Remove cucumbers
look in mirror to see If puffiness and black circles are gone or reduced.
I read about doing this from an email I received and tried it
out on my husband and it worked for him. I will do this whenever
needed. You could do this everyday as a regular routine. And don't throw
the remaining cucumber away, eat it , Cucumbers are good for energy as well.

I love that Clinique Under Eye Ball Roller. I have terrible allergies, don't sleep well and always have puffs under my eyes in the morning. Don't have dark circles so I'm not sure how it works on those, but I swear it makes the puffy go away. And even if it does nothing, that little silver ball feels so good on my skin in the morning. I sent one to a friend for her birthday and she's in love, too. I know a previous poster did not have such a positive response for this product, but at under $30 bucks, I think it's worth a try!! good luck.

Any under eye cream should work. I use Mary Kay eye roller. Also, drink lots of water!

Arbonne under eye cream and good makeup. I use Arbonne under eye cream the minute I get out of the shower, then I use Suzanne Somers spray on makeup (gives a great look without the heaviness of a base). Whatever you do, don't cake a bunch of cheap makeup on your undereyes, that will just make them worse!

Eat healthy, start sleeping better, de-stress, drink lots of water, use Arbonne and you should notice a difference.

Best of luck to you!

I know this may sound weird, but an ice pack under the eyes helps with the puffy. I used to have tiny little square ones that were perfect. For the under eye circles, i use a cover up stick. (looks like a lipstick tube.. i think it is covergirl) A small bit of powder on top of that and they are gone :) Cold tea bags are supposed to help with the puffy too.
