How to Remove Dark Circles Under Eyes?

Can anyone give any easiest tutorial on removing dark circles under eyes here?

Careful work with a brush in lightroom or similar, lifting shadows and checking visually as you do so.

Work big and work slow on a new layer.

There's various ways of doing it and depends on severity etc.

This may be of use:

Easiest: patch tool as per @Jase's post above
Targeted curves adjustments give much more natural looking results than either the patch tool or dodge & burn. This video explains why just lifting shadows is unsatisfactory, too.

I use the patch tool, on a new layer then reduce the opacity of that layer.

On a more serious note, a solid colour fill layer set to colour blend and reduced to 40% opacity, then worked in with an inverted layer mask works well. Does the same job as the tutorial juggler posted, but fewer steps and a better colour match usually.

Lightroom sucks for retouching and stuff like this.

I want to do that in Photoshop.

Same way that I do, I find it really effective and, if you get the opacity right, very natural looking
