If you woke up with those annoying dark patches under your eyes because you had a party or worked late, here are some home remedies you can apply to correct these ‘imperfections’.
Tomatoes
Mix 1 teaspoon of tomato juice with 1 teaspoon of lemon juice and apply the mixture under your eyes. Wait 10 minutes and rinse. Do this twice a day and you will also see that it makes your skin softer.
Potato juice
Brightens dark circles. Cut one or two cold potatoes into several pieces and mash them to extract the juice.
Soak a cotton ball in this liquid, squeeze it a little, and place it over your closed eyes.
Leave it on for 15 minutes and wash your face.
Reduce dark circles with cucumber
Rose water
Similar to the potato remedy, soak cotton balls in rose water and place them under your eyes to reduce swelling. You will feel a refreshing effect.
Almond oil
Drop a few drops of oil onto your fingers and gently apply it around your eyes. Do this before going to bed.
Home remedies against wrinkles
Tea bags
Moisten two green tea or chamomile tea bags in cold water for 5 minutes and then refrigerate for 20 minutes. Remove them and place them on your eyelids or the affected area for half an hour and rinse your face.
Mint leaves
Crush five mint leaves in a bowl and place them around your eyes. Remove them after 10 minutes and gently clean the area with a cold cloth.
Make your own astringent tonic
Cold milk
Pour very cold milk into a bowl and then soak a cloth or a piece of fabric for 5 minutes. Squeeze it out a little and place the cloth over your eyelids for 10 minutes. If your skin feels a bit sticky, rinse; if not, let it dry.
Turmeric
Mix 2 teaspoons of this spice powder with a splash of natural pineapple juice. Apply the paste to the dark circles and wait 10 minutes. Then, clean with a damp cloth.
Remove facial spots with papaya
Cold spoons
Freeze two metal spoons for several hours. Remove them and then place the back side on your eyelids or directly on the dark circles. Press lightly until the utensils start to warm up.
Use red lipstick
It is one of the trends among young women, especially those with dark skin.
Start by applying the lipstick with a brush over your dark circles.
Then apply liquid concealer over the red circles and blend with a small sponge.
Finally, apply your foundation.
