From time to time we can all get dark shadows under our eyes. From too much booze to not enough sleep, the thin skin around the eyes can became discoloured and tired looking for a multitude of reasons.

But now, experts are warning that consistent dark circles could mean you’re suffering with nasal congestion – a common by product of a number of conditions.

Whether it’s allergies or something structural, a good port of call is to try clearing your sinuses with over-the-counter decongestants, some Vic’s VapoRub dissolved in hot water, or with a saltwater solution.

If this has the desired effect, you’ll know what you need to do regularly to keep dark circles at bay. However, if symptoms persist, always see your GP.
