you're young (under 30) they may well be genetic –– fatty bags that appear
under the eyes that can –– if they truly bother you –– be surgically
corrected. (I happen to find some undereye bags somewhat sexy, but all
depends...) I generally get the kind I like (the aforementioned "sexy"
kind –– hey, let me dream) if I'm sleep–deprived, but get horrible ones ––
those awful puffy *shelves* that appear below the hollowed–out undereye
area) if I eat stuff like Chinese food, or don't drink enough water, or have
a terrible flu.
What kind do you have? There's also been a terrible flu going around (as if
I need to tell anyone) that has not exactly done wonders for anyone's looks,
undereye geography, or skin–tone.
but lately they have been more pronounced and puffier even when I get enough
sleep. And my seasonal allergies probably won't kick in for a couple more
months yet. Yeah, I'll be looking real cute then... oh well. Probably
genetic, my little sister has those very fatty bags under her eyes.

drink enough water, drink too much other stuff, or wear powdery undereye
liner that starts to travel south over the course of a boistrous evening.
On the other hand, cold cucumber slices, a milk compress or tea bags do
wonders for my liver.

My undereye circles are really bad lately, besides the obvious things like
plenty of sleep and keeping hydrated– what else should I do? :–(

Genetics, general health, allergies. Kind of depends how old you are. If plenty of sleep and keeping hydrated– what else should I do? :–(

I have mediterranean eyes and they always have dark circles no matter what.
For me it's genetic.

Was just reading somewhere that dark circles mean that your liver is not
functioning properly. so The perscription would be a detox diet, but short of
that...
I've found radishes to be a godsend. eat 2 or 3 raw with your lunch every day
for a week, or throw them in your stirfry. Radishes totally work for me, they
are one of only 2 foods with vitamin K.

Twenty2222 <twenty2...@aol.com> did share with us lately:
face vanishes if I eat a little kasha (buckwheat groats) Guess
what I eat almost every day?
And while most of us are only benefitted by eating vegetables,
people on an anti–coagulant regimen must indeed beware of
eating too many. I read, IIRC in _Discover's_ "Vital Signs"
column years ago about a woman who had a stroke on vacation
because she did just that. Borrowed from news:sci.med.nutrition,
via Google (google.ca to be particular):

This is in fact not correct. Many vegetables contain vitamin K. And while most of us are only benefitted by eating vegetables,
people on an anti–coagulant regimen must indeed beware of
eating too many. I read, IIRC in _Discover's_ "Vital Signs"
column years ago about a woman who had a stroke on vacation

via Google (google.ca to be particular):
Vitamin K is a co–factor in blood clotting. Green, leafy
vegetables (and a few other foods) are a good source of vitamin
K, but a good deal of it is produced in the gut by bacteria.
Watching your vitamin K intake is generally only necessary if
someone is on an oral anticoagulant like warfarin (Coumadin)
which (to simplify) acts to reduce the tendency of your blood to
clot by acting as an antagonist of the vitamin. In a sense, it
creates an artificial "deficiency" of the vitamin at least as
far as blood clotting is concerned. Someone has to be titrated
and stabilized on a particular dose of warfarin to adjust their
prothrombin time (a metric of clotting activity) within a
certain range. If someone taking warfarin either reduces their
intake of foods containing vitamin K, _or starts eating a lot
more of them than usual, then their prothrombin time might
become too high or low, leading to bleeding_ or insufficient
anticoagulant effects. –– Steve Dyer on s.m.n. sometime 1995

Sounds like the perscriptions the spammers send, but they always want functioning properly. so The perscription would be a detox diet
