8. Pay Attention To Your Eyes
A recurring mistake we are all guilty of while taking care of our skin is not doing enough for our eyes. If you are looking for quick fixes to get on that instant overnight glow, consider treating your eyes to hydration too. While nourishing eye masks with ingredients like seaweed are recommended, you can also go for home remedies if you don’t have a store-bought eye mask in your skincare stock.
- Use Cucumber Slices Or Tomato Juice
We stan our pantry for reasons more than one and these trusted home remedies for dark circles further prove our point. If you are stuck with racoon eyes after pulling off an all-nighter, turn your attention to chilled cucumber slices to do the trick. Enriched with essential vitamins and nutrients, cucumbers tackle oxidative damage and help to lighten under-eye blemishes in no time.
Another instant fix we recommend for dark circles is applying tomato juice to reinvigorate the under-eye area. Tomatoes contain lycopene, a powerful antioxidant that curbs sun damage, boosts the skin barrier and diminishes the appearance of dark circles, all while making your skin supple and refreshed.
The trusted tomato and cucumber slices are definitely a saviour when you want to depuff your eyes and brighten up your under-eye area. Both of them are rich in essential vitamins and nutrients.
- Almond Oil
We also love how massaging a few drops of almond oil brightens, revitalises and lifts our under eyes in the snap of a finger. Known to be a potent source of vitamin E, almond oil helps in reducing pigmentation, dark spots and blemishes when used consistently.
