Under-eye circles and hollowness
The three different causes people call "dark circles", and why each needs a different fix.

Three different problems
- Pigmentation: the skin itself is darker. Sun protection and time help; concealers work immediately.
- Vascularity: thin skin shows the blood vessels underneath. Sleep, cold compresses and caffeine-based products reduce it.
- Hollowness: a shadow cast by the tear-trough. Lighting and camera angle change it dramatically; body-fat percentage matters.
Your report tells you which one you have. Most people assume pigmentation and buy the wrong products.
