dark cirlces under my eyes?


Question:
I am in my 20's and in the past year got dark circles under my eyes, I hate it and want it to go away. I sleep enough, eat healthy but smoke, any suggestions?

Answers:
I have a similar issue, but you should know it's partly genetic (has to do with having thin skin around the eye area). But if it cropped up recently it might be a sign of some other problems.

I would also recommend seeing a doctor, as it could be some sort of vitamin/mineral deficiency. It is *not* a good idea to start taking iron supplements without first getting your iron levels checked, since too much iron can cause serious problems. Also, iron supplements have some annoying side effects, so don't take them unless you need to.

Though of course doctors do usually recommend a multivitamin, so you might want to start that if you haven't yet.
