Aloe Vera Gel
Apply aloe vera gel under your eyes and leave it on overnight. It’s best to use fresh gel, from aloe vera leaf, that has been refrigerated for a couple of hours. Wash off in the morning. (Pic: Pixabay)
Tomato
Tomato and lemon juice mixture can be perfect for lightening dark circles. Leave it off for about 10-20 minutes and wash it off. Doing this once or twice a week is enough. (Pic: Pixabay)
Coconut oil
On a cotton pad, take few drops of coconut oil and dab it under your eye. Let the oil get absorbed. Wash off after 3 hours with lukewarm water. (Pic: Pixabay)
