What causes dark circles under your eyes

Dark circles under your eyes can happen for many reasons. One of the most common causes of dark circles is aging. As you age, the skin below your eyes begins to loosen and thin out so the blood vessels under your skin may become more visible. This can darken the appearance of your under eyes. Hollowed areas called tear troughs may develop as well. Tear troughs cause shadows that increase the appearance of puffy eyes.

Other causes of dark circles under your eyes may include:

Genetics:

Studies have shown that dark circles under your eyes may run in families.

Dermatitis:

Eczema and contact dermatitis can cause the blood vessels under your eyes to dilate and show through your skin.

Rubbing your eyes:

Rubbing and scratching your eyes can cause your under eyes to swell and your blood vessels to break.

Lack of sleep:

Poor sleeping habits cause the skin under your eyes to appear pale. Your blood vessels can easily show through your skin.

Hyperpigmentation :

Too much exposure to the sun triggers your body to make more melanin. Melanin is the substance (pigment) that gives your skin its color.
