Not enough rest
and sleep deprivation may have an impact on the health and appearance of the eyes.
Dark circles around the eyes can result when the skin in that area is very thin.
Dark circles are accentuated when the person is tired. Eye bags, on the other
hand, are due to the accumulation of toxins, water, and fat. To
reduce eye bags: - Reduce
your daily intake of salt and drink enough water. Give yourself a massage, gently
press around the eye with the index finger and finish in the tear duct. Repeat
at least 5 times for each eye.
- Make
an infusion of watercress and raw potato and put compresses on the eyes. You can
also apply castor oil around the eyes before going to bed.
- Put
on chilled coffee (caffeinated) compresses for 10 minutes.
- Put
two spoons in the freezer. The next day place the concave part of each spoon on
each eye for five minutes.
- Green
tea is a very effective anti-inflammatory. Make a cup of green tea and make some
ice cubes with it. When ready, massage your eyes with the frozen green tea cubes.
- Moisten
two chamomile tea bags with cold water and place them on your closed eyes for
15 minutes.
- Gently
tap puffy areas on your upper and lower lids using your fingertips.
- Hold
a bag of frozen peas to your eyes for a few minutes.
