This one can surely be termed as grand mom’s

and can practically be used on almost all skin
types and for all skin-related issues. It’s also a mild
astringent and can be used as an effective skin
toner too.
How To Use Aloe Rosewater – Soak cotton
eye pads in rose water and place them over the
eyelids. Leave on for 10 to 15 minutes. Repeat
every night for a month to see the best results.

Yoga and
Meditation
One of the underlying reasons for
dark circles is stress, depression and
an erratic lifestyle. Thus, one of the
most prudent ways to deal with dark
circles is to stay calm and composed.
But as stress is an integral part of our
life, this is not always possible. Hence,
it is beneficial to make Yoga and
Meditation an everyday ritual!
Yoga not only calms down the mind but
also helps to regulate the body clock,
and most importantly, it addresses most
body problems from the core.
Almond oil and Lemon juice
Another tried and tested remedy to treat dark circles is
to mix almond oil and lemon juice. Lemon juice’s active
component is ascorbic acid, along with other nutrients it
helps to reduce water retention which can cause puffy
circles around the eyes. It also has a mild bleaching action,
however, when used undiluted it can have the opposite
effect and cause damage to the skin, so always use
caution.
How To Use Almond Oil & Lemon Juice – Take
about a teaspoon of almond oil and a few drops of lemon
juice, combine them, and gently apply it around the eye
area. Massage and let it rest for 2 to 3 minutes. Rinse post
that!
