Natural Remedies For Dark Circles

Dark circles under the eye are the best expressways of exhaustion and strain. But even after nights when you've got enough sleep, you wake up to find the curse on you. Here are ways how you get rid of them :

  1. Ensure that you get enough sleep every night (seven to nine hours suggested).
  2. Eat a healthy, balanced diet and ensure that you're eating lots of fruits and vegetables, especially green ones. Also, ensure that you're drinking lots of water every day and avoid salty foods as much as possible.
  3. Lie down and place cucumber slices over your eyes for 10 minutes. Research proves that cucumbers help in reducing dark circles.
  4. Smoking causes your blood vessels to be more prominent under your eyes, so here's another reason to quit smoking.
These home remedies should be useful as far as skin care is concerned. If any problem still persists, you might want to consult your doctor.
