Dark circles, Puffy eyes and Crow's-feet are the three main eye problems that can cloud an otherwise beautiful face.
If your eyes are puffy with dark shadows, it shows you are not getting enough sleep. You can get dark circles and puffy eyes if you had a late night out or didn't have a night's sleep or cried your heart out.
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 moisturiser thickly to seal in water.
Relax and enjoy!

Cucumber takes the swelling and puffiness out of the eye area. It also draws up fine lines and wrinkles.
