How it works

Upload Your Photo

Choose a clear photo where dark circles are visible under the eyes. Frontal or three-quarter portraits with good lighting show the under-eye area most clearly and produce the best results.

Expect: Your photo loads immediately in the editor at full resolution. The original image appears without compression, ready for dark circle removal.
Mark the Dark Circles

Use the brush tool to paint over the dark or shadowed areas under each eye. Focus on the discolored regions beneath the lower eyelid. The AI will brighten and even out the tone while matching surrounding skin.

Detailed Guides by Scenario

📷

Professional Photography

Remove unwanted dark circles from professional photo shoots, client deliverables, and stock photography to achieve clean, polished results.

Common Scenarios

Client portrait sessions where the dark circles appeared unexpectedly in frame
Stock photography that needs the dark circles removed for broader commercial appeal
Product photography with distracting dark circles in the background

Best Practices

Zoom in and place a marker directly on the dark circles for the most accurate removal
Run a second pass if any faint outlines or shadows remain after the first edit
Describe the desired background fill — e.g., 'replace the dark circles with clean wall' for predictable results

📷

Real Estate & Property Listings

Clean up property photos by removing dark circles that distract buyers and lower perceived home value.

Common Scenarios

Listing photos where the dark circles clutters the frame and makes rooms look smaller
Exterior shots with dark circles that hurt curb appeal
Open house photos that need the dark circles removed before uploading to MLS

Best Practices

Shoot the space first, then edit — AI removal works better than awkward staging workarounds
After removing the dark circles, check that floor lines and wall edges still look straight
Process all listing photos in one session so lighting and style stay consistent

If something looks off

AI changed wrong area

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

Mark only the darkened areas under the eyes, not the eyelids or cheeks. Use a brush size that covers just the discolored region beneath each lower eyelid.

Try This →

Tip: Use smaller brush strokes on just the target area for more precise AI edits.

Under-eye area looks too light or unnatural

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

This happens when marking extends too far onto the cheeks. Focus specifically on the darkened half-moon shape directly under each eye for more natural blending.

Try This →

Tip: Include 'keep natural texture and detail' in your prompt to avoid over-processing.

Dark circles still visible after removal

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

Very severe dark circles may need a second pass. Generate once, then mark any remaining darkness and generate again for more complete brightening.

Try This →

Tip: A quick second pass on remaining traces usually gives a clean final result.

Eye bags remain after dark circle removal

Why: The AI interpreted the instruction differently than expected.

Try:

Dark circles (discoloration) and eye bags (puffiness) are different issues. After removing dark circles, use our AI Eye Bag Remover if you also need to address puffy under-eye bags.

Try This →

Tip: Try adjusting your prompt wording if the first result isn't perfect — small changes make a big difference.

Quick answers

Do I need to mark the dark circles?

Yes, paint over the darkened areas under your eyes using the brush tool. This guides the AI to brighten specifically those regions while preserving natural skin texture and surrounding areas.

What's the difference between dark circles and eye bags?

Dark circles are discoloration or shadowing under the eyes, while eye bags are physical puffiness or swelling. This tool removes dark pigmentation and shadows. For puffy bags, use our AI Eye Bag Remover.

Will it work on all dark circle types and colors?

Yes, the AI handles purple, blue, brown, and black dark circles regardless of cause (genetics, aging, lack of sleep, allergies). It brightens and evens tone across all skin colors and circle types.

Can I remove dark circles from just one eye?

Yes, mark only the eye with dark circles if you have asymmetric discoloration. This is useful when one eye has more pronounced darkness than the other.

Is EditThisPic's AI dark circles remover really free?

Yes — you get 1 free edit per week, no account needed. For unlimited edits, plans start at $3.99/month.

What photo formats does the AI dark circles remover support?

JPG, PNG, WebP, and HEIC. Upload any common photo format and EditThisPic handles the rest.

How long does it take to remove dark circles?

Usually 15-30 seconds. Upload your photo, describe what you want, and the AI delivers the result.

Can I undo or adjust the AI edit if I don't like the result?

Yes. You can refine your prompt and re-edit as many times as you want. Each attempt uses one edit credit (or your free weekly edit).
