How to Remove Dark Circles – Tested Home Natural Remedies
Before I tell you how to remove dark circles with some great and tested home natural remedies, let me first tell you that having dark circles under your eyes is never a good thing – and it’s not a secret.
You will look drab instead of fab even if you are just in your 20s. You might look like you are a lot older than your age. Dark under eyes also makes you look sad, depressed, tired and stressed out.
Since nowadays, the beauty of a person is really determined from his/her outside appearance first, you should look for ways to remove dark circles so that you can have a healthier social life.
But first, what could possibly lead you to this predicament? Here are things you should know and should avoid:
1) Over-exposure to the sun – The sun produces UV rays that are bad for the skin if it is excessive. During hot summer days especially, make sure that you put on your sun glasses so that the sun will not directly target your eyes. This is a good way to prevent skin pigmentation that leads to darkening of the under eyes if you cannot really prevent yourself from exposing yourself to the sun.
2) Under sleeping – If you have insomnia, it will really show not only in your under eyes but your whole aura. However, insomnia is another medical condition that you should consult with your doctor. If you do not have insomnia and you are only lacking sleep, it will also cause your eyes to darken. Try to sleep for at least 8 hours a day to prevent and remove dark circles.
3) Hereditary – Sometimes having dark circles really runs in the blood. You can start blaming your parents now.
4) Nasal congestion – If you are having problems nasally, they will really affect the circles around your eyes. This is because during nasal congestion, your blood circulation is troubled, thus it gets all stuck in the under eyes.
If you are under any of these conditions, you might want to look for natural remedies. Why use natural remedies when you can actually go to the derma and purchase eye creams?
Eye creams are not that safe and sometimes they lead you to have darker under eye circles depending on the reaction of the eye creams to your skin. It will be better to try these home remedies because not only is it all-natural but you can also save money since all of these can be found in your kitchen.
- Cold tea bags – Putting cold tea bags in your eyes will prevent the swelling and will cause your blood circulation to increase, thus removing dark stains under your eyes.
- Cucumber slices – Like cold tea bags, you can also put cucumber slices that are cold in your eyes for about 20 minutes to help soothe your blood flow.
- Drops of lemon – You can squeeze or apply lemon juice or even tomato juice under your eyes to make the dark circles lighten.
These are some of the best, tried and tested home natural remedies to remove dark circles.
