Help! Bloody great lines under eyes :(

Please help! I'm in my late 30s and in the last few months I've developed these strong-looking lines under my eyes and I look like shit Sad

There are actually 2 lines under each eye, one is really close to the under eye and doesn't bother me but the second is much longer, about 2 cm under the eye. When I smile this is exactly where they are, but you can clearly see them even when I don't smile.

I don't really wear make up (foundation etc.) but doubt anything could cover them actually. I wear High SPF (50) sun screen (although have been not so diligent in the past). I moisturise etc. etc. I'm using the No. 7 eye cream but if anything they're looking worse! I religiously drink 4 pints + of water every day, have done for years, and my diet on the whole is good.

What can I do? I look seriously knackered all the time and it's getting me down. 2 years ago I was ID'd for alcohol and now they might well ask me for an OAP badge.

Am seriously and willingly considering peels/scrapes/fillers what have you, but not sure what will help (and I think I read that they don't use fillers around your eyes?).

Please help a sad and wrinkled and probably vain prune :(

Have to go out but will check back later to find out what the miracle cure may be Smile
