Say goodbye to dark circles with these natural remedies

Ayurveda identifies stress—physical, environmental, or emotional—as a major factor affecting eye health, caused by overwork, sleeplessness, or prolonged crying.

Dark circles occur when the skin under the eyes thins, making blood vessels more visible. In some cases, genetics and stress make them worse.

Aloe Vera: Aloe Vera possesses soothing and moisturising properties that aid in reducing puffiness and lightening dark circles.

Cucumber: Cucumber has a cooling effect and contains antioxidants that help diminish dark circles and puffiness.

Turmeric: Turmeric boasts anti-inflammatory properties that diminish swelling and lighten dark circles.

Rose Water: Rose water offers soothing and cooling properties that assist in reducing dark circles.

Natural remedies affect everyone differently. Consult a healthcare professional before trying new treatments, especially if you're on medication or have existing conditions.
