Wake up before it is too late and restore healthier skin with this inexpensive, simple, and highly effective under-eye mask with ingredients one undoubtedly has tucked away in their pantry. Must be wondering what the ingredient is.
Then coffee is the popular answer to all your problems. With properties that reduce redness and inflammation while simultaneously enhancing blood circulation when applied topically, this homemade under-eye mask will be a magic potion that will reduce the appearance of dark circles under your eyes and promote glowing skin.
Ingredients:
- 1.1 teaspoon coffee grounds
- 2.1/4 cup warm water
- 3.5-7 ice cubes
- 4.2 cotton pads
Method:
- Caffeine works like magic when your skin craves that extra boost of liveliness. So, begin by taking a clean bowl and adding one heaping teaspoon of coffee grounds to ¼ cup warm water and stir until it is emulsified. Once done, add ice cubes to the bowl to cool the coffee mix.
- With the help of scissors, cut two cotton pads in a U-shape to fit the contour of the under-eye region and proceed to dunk them in the chilled coffee solution.
- Squeeze the pads lightly to get rid of the excess coffee mix, place the cotton pads under the eyes, and relish the cooling effect.
- Keep it on for 15 minutes or till it’s dry and the product has been absorbed into the skin.
Note: You can apply this coffee under-eye mask daily or twice a week to get the desired results.
