Dark circles under the eyes can completely spoil your appearance and shatter your self-esteem. These can occur due to various reasons such as aging, lack of sleep, stress, an unhealthy lifestyle, pregnancy, nutritional deficiencies, liver problems, and hereditary factors.
The skin underneath our eyes is very delicate and is a lot thinner than most parts of our body. The veins that are present underneath our eyes are very close to the surface of the skin causing a bluish or darker shade. This is why this area looks darker.
