English term or phrase: hollow dark circles vs. coloured dark circles

Anti-wrinkle eye contour with a lifting action from proteins that will stimulate fibroblast activity, boost lash growth with vitamin B5, and stimulate hollow dark circles with a filling action and coloured dark circles with an eliminating action.

Explanation:
Hollow dark circles to cienie pod oczami - wrażenie zapadniętych (hollow) oczu - spowodowane ubytkiem tkanki tłuszczowej,
dlatego w przytoczonym opisie wspomina się o stymulacji fibroblastów i wypełnieniu (filling action), a coloured dark circles to cienie z widocznymi powiększonymi naczyniami krwionośnymi lub nadmierną pigmentacją skóry, stąd mowa o ich ukryciu/maskowaniu/eliminacji (eliminating action).

W zależności od odcienia skóry, cienie mogą również przybierać różne kolory (shadow coloration also depends on your skin tone. If you have paler or cool-toned skin, veins will appear bluish or purplish. If you have darker or warm-toned skin, your veins will look more green or brown-tinged.), być może stąd zróżnicowanie w polskim nazewnictwie - cienie przy ciemniejszej, zapadniętej skórze, a sińce przy widocznych naczyniach krwionośnych. Myślę, że na co dzień terminy te są używane zamiennie.

Example sentence(s):
  • Dark circles under eyes are usually caused by hollowing in the "tear trough" zone due to volume loss caused by loss of fat in this area.
  • Lack of sleep and accumulation of fluids (from sleeping) fall under the enlarged blood vessels category.

Reference: What are the different types of dark circles?

Reference information:
A dark circle is a change in the colour of the skin or the relief under the eyes, in the area located between the lower eyelid and the top of the cheekbone. When a dark circle appears, the skin becomes dull and darkened, to a colour which varies with each person (black or violet dark circles etc…). In some cases, the structure of the face is transformed and the eye area becomes more hollow.

In general, dark circles give the face a more tired and aged appearance. - https://www.roc.com/what-is-a-dark-circle

What are the different types of dark circles?

Often, dark circles can be divided into two categories according to their appearance and their origins.

Coloured dark circles

We talk about coloured dark circles in the case of dark marks below the eyes, of the colour:

black
purplish
grey
or yellowy-brown
The most common dark circles are due to bad blood circulation. The skin being very fine in this area, its transparency enables bloods vessels full of pigments and accumulated toxins to appear.

This category also includes the dark circles we call « pigmented », which go beyond the bottom of the lower eyelid and mark the whole circumference of the eye. These dark circles are more from hereditary origin.

Hollow dark circles

This type of dark circle appears when the layer of fat underneath the skin becomes thinner with age. This process renders the contours of the eye-socket more visible. The eyelid and the cheekbone become more pronounced and a space appears. - https://www.roc.com/what-are-the-different-types-of-dark-cir...
