Get rid of under-eye dark circles

Get rid of under-eye dark circles
If you thought that those stubborn, unpleasant dark circles under your eye are a result of lack of sleep, think again. You may be catching up on your daily quota of beauty sleep, but are you still suffering from dark circles? Not many people know that apart from their lifestyle habits, the problem behind getting dark circles is also organic. The bruised appearance that develops under our eyes is often a result of thinning skin in the eye area, allergies, or in some cases, it is heredity. But some homemade natural remedies can help us reduce them.




One of the best home remedies to fight dark circles is using cucumber slices on your eyes.
Applying cool cucumber slices on your eyes can be soothing and reduces puffiness and prevent skin discolouration. Use them for five to ten minutes and see a marked improvement in your under-eye area.


Another effective homemade remedy would be using tea bags on your eyes. Tea bags contain caffeine and anti-oxidants, that help repair damaged skin. Take used tea bags, cool them, squeeze them and keep them on your eyes for 10 minutes.



Raw potatoes also help in reducing dark circles. Cool a potato in the refrigerator and cut it into very thin slices. Keep applying them 2-3 times a day for around 20 minutes.



Almond oil is considered as an effective remedy to remove dark circles. Massaging the area with almond oil before going to bed also diminishes dark circles.
