Are you also worried about your eyes getting all dark and puffy? Do you look tired all the time? Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. Dark circles after excessive stress and work is a common effect. In this blog, Rubina Ratnakar gives you some effective ways of getting rid of dark circles and getting healthier skin.
We begin by suggesting a cold compress to your eyes once or twice a day, if possible. This will relax your eyes and help you remove those bags under your eyes as well. Keeping it for 7 to 10 minutes daily is quite effective.
Another thing to your rescue is rose water. All of us are familiar with a large number of benefits of rose water, especially for our skin. It acts as a toner and rejuvenates our skin to a large extent. Dip some cotton in rose water and keep it on your eyes for 10 minutes daily for good results.
Surprisingly, on our list we next have tomatoes. Tomatoes are rich in lycopene which is a great substance that can help you eliminate dark circles completely. Mix two tablespoons of tomato juice with the same amount of lemon juice and apply it under your eyes. Leave it for 10 minutes and wash with warm water. For faster results, you can apply this pack twice daily.
A strong antioxidant, turmeric, is also a great way to remove your dark circles. Create a thick paste of turmeric with rose water and apply it under your eyes. Use a wet cloth to remove the paste after 10 minutes. You will see that your dark circles start fading away after some time.
Now, moving back to the problems that led your eyes into this condition. Make sure you get 8 hours of sleep and exercise daily. Using products to lighten your dark circles and not cutting off the cause will be a waste of time. Practice a good skincare routine of using moisturizer, skin protection, and don’t forget to remove makeup completely at the end of the day.
