When people look at you....they look at your eyes. Dark circles and puffy eyes make you appear tired, unhappy and unfriendly. Causes for dark circles can include heredity, allergies, sun damage and aging.

To avoid dark circles and puffy eyes, lifestyle tips include drinking plenty of water, limiting alcohol intake, exercising, using sunscreens, wearing glasses with UV protection, getting plenty of rest, giving up smoking, using a yellow based concealer, and controlling allergies - chronic rubbing can create dark circles. In addition, buy products that contain anti-inflammatories, retinol, antioxidants, caffeine, vitamin K, or amino acid peptides.

Untreated dark circles become more prominent with time, so be proactive .
