 I suspect that th ese  might be Denny-Morgan folds and that you have at least a hint of atopic dermatitis (eczema). That , along with the shadowing under the eyes allows me to make that conclusion. A Denny- Morgan fold is a pleat under the eye which occurs in people with eczema. Be careful not to rub your eyes.
