BEAUTY TIPS Caring for your EYES

Caring for your EYES

Tired Eyes
Squeeze cotton pads out of ice water, place on eyelids and lie down, elevate feet.

Eye Makeup Remover
A great way to get off eye makeup is to mix water and baby bath. Removes it in seconds, even waterproof.

Keep soap out of eyes
Cold Cream on eyelashes and brows keeps soap out of eyes while shampooing.

Eye Soother
Place cucumber slices on eye lids while relaxing in a hot bath for ten minutes.

Dark Circles or Bags Under Eyes
Place slightly warm tea bags over your eyes, leave on for 10-15 minutes.

Eye wash
1 qt boiled water; cool
1 level tsp soda
1 heaping tsp boric acid
1 heaping tsp salt
1 overflowing tsp Spirits of Camphor

Aztec Mystery Eye Treatment
Nobody really knows WHY this is so effective on under-eye puffiness, but it IS. The procedure is very simple: peel an avocado, remove the pit, and slice a half into quarter-inch crescents. Lie down, secure a few slices under each eye, and rest for about 20 minutes. The result is corrective magic!

Lighten Circles under Eyes
To lighten dark circles under your eyes, wrap a grated raw potato in cheesecloth and apply to eyelids for 15-20 minutes. Wipe off residue and apply an eye cream.
