Hi. Greetings on a Sunday morn. Dark circles could be due to many causes like disturbed chronic sleep pattern, excess weight loss, familial/hereditary factors, vitamin deficiencies etc. Sometimes it may just be due to deep socketed eyes one has. You'll need a retinol based/vitamin c based cream at night and sunscreen in day time. Please see a dermatologist for prescription of the same. Hope this helps.
