I am medical student and study for late night my diet was also not good but I am taking seabuckthorn capsules rich in omegas n vitamins and also using under eye gel of aloe vera for diminishing my horrible circles but they work none for me.

Genetics are the biggest culprit. If you inherit fair or thin skin under the eyes, it?s more obvious when blood pools there (often because of slower circulation from lack of sleep). This accumulation causes fragile capillaries to stretch and leak. Age is another factor. Over time, skin loses collagen and thins, so veins show through more prominently. Sunbathing speeds up this process by breaking down collagen and mottling skin color. Seasonal allergies are to blame for many people. ?They trigger the release of histamines in the body, which in turn inflame blood vessels and cause swelling,? says Ranella Hirsch, a dermatologist in Boston. To determine why your circles happen, gently stretch the skin under your eyes. If that area becomes darker, the circles are probably due to genetics or aging. If the color doesn?t change, UV rays or allergies are probably the cause. USE A RETINOID Look for one that's especially formulated for the eye area, like RoC Retinol Correxion Eye Cream. The vita ? min A derivative will fade pigment and increase collagen production to make skin less transparent so dark circles are less noticeable. For reatment and any querries ask privetly
