Brief Answer:
Sleep well. Take Vitamin E supplements

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for asking on HealthcareMagic.

I have gone through the image. It did not seem very intense to me. Here is what you should do:
* Avoid stress and relax. Get good sleep. Inadequate sleep could cause dark circles.
* Alcohol, drugs and smoking can have adverse effect. Abstain from these.
* Eat well. There should be source of adequate vitamins. Reduce salt intake.
* You may take Vitamin E supplements (Evion 400) once or twice a day.
* Treat your allergies. Allergies are a common cause of skin discoloration under the eyes.
* Fix nasal congestion
* Establish whether or not this condition runs in your family, as under-eye dark circles are believed to frequently be hereditary.
* You may google out for home remedies. Applying tomato paste or cucumber slices is thought to be helpful.

Hope that helps.
