I met up recently with a friend I hadn't seen in a long time, and he had dark bags under his eyes! He is pretty young, so it was a shock to me. I guess time marches on, and waits for no one.
My eyes do show signs of tiredness when I'm not sleeping much, but thankfully I don't think I get huge dark bags under my eyes. If I did, I'd probably try out that Preparation H trick I've read about online.
Do you have dark bags under your eyes? Do you do anything to help manage the issue?

I don't have bags, but I have dark circles under my eyes. Sadly, they seem to be getting worse over time.

Like @Boogs, I don't have bags, but I have dark circles (always have) and I have fine lines under my eyes. The dark circles get worse when I'm tired and now that I'm a mom...But the fine lines are new. Sad!

I get bags when I'm sleep deprived. Haven't slept well in 18 months so my eyes are pretty baggy

I always have really dark circles under my eyes. I have for as long as I can remember and it doesn't matter how much sleep I get, they are still there.

I also have dark circles under my eyes. That's normal for me and genetic. It's the only place I use makeup to help hide them, haha. And, based on my mom, they're only going to get worse.

I had dark circles really bad when I was in school and working full time. After I graduated and began to have a normal schedule they dissappeared. I'm pretty sure they will be back after the baby arrives!

No bags no dark circles even when tired. DH however does get dark under the eyes when he is really tired.

As some of the others have said I have genetic dark circles that never go away. I just use concealer.

I do get bags when I get tired. My eyes start to look really swollen.
@MrBee, My mom swears by Preparation H for her dark circles and under eye wrinkles.

I honestly don't know. Guess I try not to look in the mirror when I'm that tired because I'm scared of what ill see.
