0 comment 7 views

Introduction

 Undereye circles can make you look tired, or stressed and are quite familiar to most of us. They arise when there is a formation or apparent darkening of the area of skin below both eyes. Although they are not veneerous, dark circles can play a major role in how a person feels about themselves. Dark circles can be inherited, due to aging, too much stress, work at night and many other reasons like a person having an unhealthy diet. 

 Rather than reaching for expensive, chemical-laden products, why not try some natural, quick, and efficient home remedies? These are not only gentle on your skin but also your wallet!

1. Cool Cucumber Slices 

 Cucumbers have a similar texture with the skin in terms of water content hence, they possess skin enhancing nutrients. They are ideal to wash away those ‘raspy’ skies you have under your eyes and revive dull skin. 

Cool Cucumber Slices 
  • Application Method: Put thick slices of cucumber in the fridge, apply on the eyelids and just let your eyes rest for 10-15 min. Ideal if taken two times a day for improved health outcome. 
  •  Expected Outcomes: In regard to the dark circles you should start to see an improvement after a few days. The skin in the region of your eyes will probably also look less irritated and more refreshed.

2. Refreshing Cold Tea Bags

tea is not only a beverage, you can use even the tea bag after you have taken your tea, as an eye cream that works perfectly for removing those ugly dark circles. Green and black teas, which contain antioxidants, and caffeine will assist in constricting blood vessels and subside the retaining of water under the skin.

Refreshing Cold Tea Bags
  • Preparation Steps : Pour the boiling water over two tea bags in the teapot, remove them as normal but do not discard the liquid, instead place the tea bags in the fridge. Originally refrigerated, put each bag over your eyes for about 15 minutes.
  • Benefits Beyond Dark Circles : Tea bags as eye masks also eliminate the appearance of eye darkness, and also removes puffiness, making your eyes look brighter and more refreshed.

3. The Power of Potatoes

It surprises many to know that potatoes, which are a normal part of almost everyone’s kitchen are also a part of the essential skin care list. They also contain natural bleaching agents which can be useful in the elimination of the circles and swollen part around the eyes.

The Power of Potatoes
  • Correct Application: A raw potato juice can be prepared by grating the raw potatoes and squeezing out the juice; this should be applied by using some cotton wool soaked in this juice and then applying it over the eyes for 10 minutes. After that, wash off with cold water.
  • Timeframe for Results: It is highly recommended to do this routine twice in a day and effects can be seen in about a week.

4. Nourishing Almond Oil

Almond oil is not only calming; it carries a number of vitamins and nutrients that are healthy to the skin. And it’s particularly good for such sensitive zones as the skin underneath your eyes.

 Nourishing Almond Oil
  • Method of Application: Almond oil can be applied under the eyes before sleeping; this is done by applying a few drops of almond oil and massaging the skin around the eyes. Rinse off the hair in the morning with cold water.
  • Integration With Other Routines: It is also very simple to combine a little amount of vitamin E into the almond oil if you wish to.

5. Hydrating Aloe Vera Gel

Aloe vera is one of the most versatile succulent plants that one can grow, having a number of uses on the skin. It is very moisturizing and is anti inflammatory, perfect for dark circles.

 Hydrating Aloe Vera Gel
  • Application Instructions: Massage a little of the gel beneath your eyes before going to bed and let it do its job at night.
  • Precautions: Ensure the gel is original and hypoallergenic so that your skin will not react adversely to the product.

 6. Fortifying Rose Water

Glossing over the face with rose water extract has been in practice for several centuries. Packed with antioxidants, it has a night and day change for the skin under our eyes, destroying the appearance of dark circles and swollen skin. 

 Fortifying Rose Water
  •  How to Apply: Pat the chilled rose water with the aid of a cotton wool and dab it under the eye region. Allow it sit for 15 minutes, then rinse. 
  •  Complementary Practices: To add a little extra to the toning of the skin, add rose water to either aloe or cucumber juice as this is relaxing to the skin. 

7. Lifestyle Adjustments

 I would like to note that genetic peculiarities and ones’ lifestyle also contribute to the appearance of the dark circles. 

Lifestyle Adjustments
  • Healthy Sleep Habits: Suggested amount of good night sleep is between seven and eight hours. 
  •  Dietary Recommendations: Include iron containing foods in your diet, for instance omega 3 fatty acids that have anti-inflammatory properties. 
  •  Hydration and Exercise: It is equally complained that this skin disease is solved simply by drinking a lot of water and exercising, yet the skin of many people is far from being healthy. 

Summary

 From cool cucumber slices to very effective eye packs made from used tea bags, potatoes and the rest we’ve mentioned above, These are methods that can easily be implemented and go a long way to help the skin under your eyes look youthful and bright. 

 Don’t forget the goal is to get results and that is why it’s very important to be constant. So maintain these easy schedules and let us wish you farewell to those pesome dark circles!
