its because the skin there is too thin and the capilaries underneath are kinda showing through.

Blame it on heredity. Blame it on the aging process. Blame allergies, sun damage, or poor lighting. A compilation of the following factors may conspire to form dark circles.
No, it’s not about the classic 60’s vampire show. Contrary to popular belief, most dark circles have nothing to do with actual skin color changes. Rather, dark shadows form when changes in facial anatomy occur. A normal part of the aging process, the infraorbital fat pad (the fatty layer located just above the cheek bone and below the eye) thins producing a sunken appearance. Light reflects off these hollows creating the illusion of shadowy circles. So while boomers struggle with fat accumulating around hips, tummy and jaw line, the opposite problem is happening beneath the eyes.
Bags emerge as a result of gravity, loss of dermal integrity, hormonal skin changes, allergies, capillary fragility and inflammation from chronic sun damage. Under eye puffiness augments the tired appearance and exaggerate dark circles.
Pooling of excess tissue fluids contributes to bag formation. This edema (fluid buildup) forms as a result of the inflammatory process, leaky capillaries and poor lymphatic drainage.
The proliferation of veins in the area is an important factor in the development of dark circles. Factors may include heredity, the natural aging process and cumulative sun damage. While sheer numbers of veins is on the rise, the thinning of the fat pad brings them closer to the surface increasing their visibility.
Larger veins are visible, others – including microscopic capillaries – are not. Both contribute to the characteristic skin tone changes associated with dark circles.
