Why do you get dark rings under your eyes when you've not slept?

Question:

Answers:
First off, like varicose veins, dark circles under the eyes are usually an inherited trait. If you have dark circles, there's a good chance that others in your family have them as well. The skin under the eye is very thin and when blood passes through the large veins close to the surface of the skin, it can produce a bluish tint. The more transparent your skin, also an inherited trait, the darker the circles appear.

A lack of sleep or excessive tiredness can cause paleness of the skin, which allows the blood underneath the skin to become more visible and appear more blue or darker.
