Herbal Recipes for Sparkling Eyes
To keep your eyes sparkling, here are some simple home recipes described below:
Bring back that sparkle with Apple juice
Apple juice, which is smooth, silky and rich in pectin, can be used to wipe sore eyes. This leaves them sparkling and bright. Always extract juice from freshly cooked apples.
Cucumber and Mint leaves help lighten dark circles
Grate half a cucumber, strain it and keep in the refrigerator to cool. Mix an equal quantity of rose water to it. Take a piece of cotton wool dipped in this lotion and place it on your eyes; this helps lighten the darkened area around your eyes. The juice from the freshly crushed mint leaves also help eradicate dark shadows beneath the eyes.
Say bye bye to wrinkles with almond, apricot and coconut oils
These are good for lubricating the delicate skin around the eyes. Frequent, gentle massages will help arrest and disperse the lines under your eyes. Do not rub sore or tired eyes for not only might you damage them but this will unnecessarily loosen the soft skin around the eyes.
Eye make-up remover
Mix one tablespoon of castor oil with two tablespoon of almond oil to make an excellent eye make-up remover . A drop of perfectly fresh castor oil smeared along the lids will also help reduce swelling, irritation and puffiness of the eyes.
Ease sore puffy eyelids with Potatoes
Grated raw potato can be used to reduce under-eye puffiness. Either strain the juice from a grated potato and apply or lay the grated vegetable on the eye between layers of muslin.
