Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of dark circles despite using Brite lite cream. Well there can be many reasons dark circles under eyes like fatigue , lack of sleep , contact dermatitis and hyperpigmentation . The Brite lite cream you are using contain hydroquinone , tretinoin and steroid , which means you should not use this cream without advice of expert as these ingredients may cause some skin problems like darkening of skin and peeling of skin in long term use. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take proper rest and sleep , drink plenty of water , eat fresh fruits and vegetables and apply kojic acid cream ( kojivit ) twice after washing your face . If condition doesn't get well then consult dermatologist for proper examination and to rule out underlying conditions like thyroid problem . Doctor may recommend laser therapy or dermabrasion.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
