It's really itchy which is why I have taken this appointment at 5 to consult and get a cream or somthing that would help me with this situation

Dark circles could be due to plenty of reasons but predominantly due to 4 reasons
-Genetic: if your parents have it, then you are likely to have it.
-Vascular: Due to blood stagnation, the hemosiderin pigment of blood seeps into the thin skin of eyelids leading to dark circles
-Pigmented: Due to darkening of skin, melanin gets deposited in the skin leading to dark circles
-And finally lifetsyle measures like late night sleep, stress etc
