    Yes, the evening primrose oil may reduce the dark circles if you keep on using it every day until its disappearance. However, the wheat germ oil and aroma oil are also good for your dark circles under the eyes. You could take them into consideration. However, the dark circles under the eyes are mainly caused by the not well blood circulation and not good sleep.

    I don't know how serious your problem is, but usually some kind of oil could help reduce the dark circles to some extent, for example, baby oil and aroma oil. Evening primrose oil should be one kind of aroma oil. You could apply it while you massage your skin around eyes. You need to be carefully and softly, because the skin around eyes is very delicate and thin. But no matter what function various oil and cream could have to eyes, I still insist that good sleeping is the best for your eyes. Go to bed before 10:00pm and fall in deep sleep before 11:00pm every day are very good to your health. Good sleeping could give you a fresh look with brilliant skin. Have a try. But if you indeed have good sleep, yet dark circles still stay, then I suggest you to go to see a doctor for diagnosis. It might be an indication of liver, kidney or heart condition.
