i should add as well as lack of water, dietry failings and perhaps the need for more shut eye, it could be hereditary. i have had dark rings for ever and nothing will cause them to go away completely, some things may make them less noticeable but the only thing that is 100% proof is a good concealer.

sorry if this sounds ignorant, but what exactly do you mean by full body workout? :oops:

ps thanks for replying :D
