Dark circles under the eyes have
long since been a frustration of those who bear them. They can make you look
tired, old and ruin your overall youthful facial appearance. Some are caused by
fatigue, poor eating and drinking habits and even genetics amongst other
things. Whatever the cause, those who are at their wits end with trying to
eliminate them will welcome these permanent solutions. Here is a list of ways
to naturally eliminate dark circles under the eyes and to help with your natural facelift.
Nutmeg and
Milk- You can use nutmeg and milk to cure dark circles under your eyes. First,
combine them to make a paste. Once you've done this, apply the paste under and
around your eyes. Leave it on for about five minutes and then rinse off.
Cucumber
Juice- Perhaps the most common way to get rid of dark circles under your eyes
is by using cucumber juice. You can apply sliced cucumbers directly to your
eyes or you can use cotton pads that have been soaked in cucumber juice. Cover
your eyes for about 15-20 minutes. This is long enough for the juice to produce
a cooling effect and reduce the puffiness and dark circles under your eyes.
Tomato and
Lime Juice- You will want to mix equal parts of these two juices to make this remedy.
After washing your face, apply the mixture under your eyes with cotton balls
and then rinse after about 30 minutes. Repeat this process daily until you
achieve the results you are looking for.
Acupressure-
Acupressure is said to be the ancient Chinese secret to anti-ageing. It is said
to heal numerous aches and pains all over the body as well as aid in weight
loss. In addition, you can use acupressure to get rid of dark circles by
pressing firmly with your index finger for 3 seconds on the bone just below
your eyes. Repeat this process 10 times every morning.
Mint
Leaves- You can also use mint leaves to eliminate the dark circles under your
eyes. Crush the leaves into small pieces and then apply to the circles under
your eyes for about 20 minutes.
Potato-
Potatoes are not just for making French fries anymore. This is another remedy
that can be used to reduce swelling, puffiness and do away with dark circles
under your eyes. Cut two peeled potato slices and apply them to your eyes. It
is recommended that you leave them on overnight three times to get the best
results.
By using
these natural remedies to eliminate the dark circles under your eyes you will
see an added youthfulness and vitality in your facial appearance.
