There are many factors responsible for getting dark circles, some of them include nutrient deficiency, lack of adequate sleep, less hydration in the body and stress.

Try the following home remedies to lighten your dark circles -

  • Grate a raw potato and soak its juice in a cotton ball. Place it under the eyes and relax with the cotton ball for 10-15 minutes. This is a very effective remedy to lighten dark circles.
  • Take two cotton balls and dip them in cold rose water. Place them on the eyes and relax quietly for 10-15 minutes daily especially before going to bed for a cooling effect. Similarly instead of rose water you can also use cucumber juice to lighten the dark circles.
  • Lightly tap the upper and lower eyelids with the tip of your fingers; this will help improve blood circulation under the eyes.
  • Massage your eyes lightly in circular motion with almond oil with the help of your finger tips.
  • Sleep well at least for 8 hours daily to get rid of dark circles.
  • Drink plenty of water and avoid taking any kind of stress.
