HI! This is not and emergency but i tried almost everything! I have very dark under eyes and i do sleep regularly. They are not bags but just very dark under eyes. My lips are too very dark aswell as the area around it (including the moustache area!) I hate it and feel so ugly. I dont want to have to always wear make up! ANY suggestions please? Would be much appreciated. I am female of 20years. Thanks

Hi.
As per your complain of dark-circles and peri-oral hyperpigmentation my advice is-
1. Have a healthy diet full of milk, green leafy vegetables, pulses.
2. Doe your parents have dark-circles. In some cases it is genetic.
3. Take Vitamin b12 supplement twice daily for 3 months.
4. Use a good sunscreen lotion (spf>25) once in morning.
5. Use melaglow cream once at night on dark areas.
6. You may get chemical peeling done from cosmetologist for faster results.

Thanks.
