Whitening the skin around the eyes with potatoes
- 2 heaping tablespoons of raw grated potatoes
- 1/2 cup green or black tea
Grate raw peeled potatoes on a fine grater, wrap them in two pieces of gauze folded in 4-6 layers. Apply on eyelids for 15-20 minutes, then rinse with tea (instead of tea, you can use a decoction of herbs or chilled still mineral water).
ADVICE! It is better to use chilled potato compresses, since cold grated potatoes relieve puffiness and swelling around the eyes very well.
For bruises under the eyes
- 1 potato (raw)
- ½ tablespoon oat flour
- 1 tbsp. spoon 10% cream
Whitening the skin around the eyes is most effective using red potatoes. Grate peeled raw potatoes on a fine grater, mix with oatmeal and cream, wrap the mixture in two pieces of gauze, place in the freezer for 10-12 minutes, then apply to the skin around the eyes and lie there until the healing mixture warms up to body temperature . Then wash your face with cool water and voila! - dark circles under the eyes will become much paler
