Gently wash the
face, then apply a
skin tightening
moisturizer around the eyes.
Grind a raw
potato and add almond paste to it. Use the mixture regularly on
the under-eyes to get rid of dark circles and puffiness.
:: Puffy Eyes ::
The puffiness of
the eyes can be reduced with a glass of ice water and four
stainless steel spoons. Chill the spoons in the water and then
place one over each eye. When the spoons become warm, switch
them with the others chilling in the glass of water. Keep
switching until you see improvement.
Cucumber
contains anti-inflammatory properties to reduce redness and
puffiness of eyes. Slice a large cucumber, reserve two slices to
place over eyes. Peel and puree the remaining cucumber. This can
be applied as a pack onto your face. Remove after
fifteen minutes. Apply moisturizer thickly to seal in water.
:: Crow's Feet ::
Wear a
sunscreen with a sun
protection factor (SPF) of 15 or more to avoid the ultra violet
rays of the sun which cause wrinkles on the skin.
Sleeping on your
back helps smooth out the wrinkles because gravity works to pull
the skin backward. If you cannot sleep on your back, at least
try to switch sides frequently.
The skin below
your eyes is thin and has few oil producing glands. So don't
pull, tag or drag it as you apply and remove make up. Any time
you apply cream or
lotion, dab, don't
rub.
