How to Get Rid of Under Eye Circles

Those dark circles under your eyes can be a big problem when you are trying to look your best. They can be fixed easier than you think, and without expensive eye creams.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy

Instructions

1. Using cucumber to soothe the skin under the eye is a very common remedy. Cucumber slices are a great way to refresh the area around the eye and give them a more vibrant look. Apply a slice of cucumber to each eye and let set for 15 minutes about once a week to keep you looking fresh.

2. Another home remedy for these dark circles is using a potato. Slice two small pieces of a potato and lay them gently under your eyes for about 10-15 minutes. Potatoes contain an enzyme that will temporarily lighten the skin. This won't fix them completely, but will get you ready for your night out if you need something quick.

3. To prevent dark circles under you eyes, make sure that you get enough sleep. Rest is essential to the health of your body and your skin.

4. Getting an adequate amount of water will also improve your dark circles, as dehydration can sometimes be the cause.
