Treatment for Dark Under Eye Circles
Grated potatoes can lighten under-eye circles. Potatoes contain an enzyme called catecholase, which is used in cosmetics as a human skin lightener.
Run one spud through your food processor and stuff the raw mash into a piece of cheesecloth.
Apply to the area directly beneath your eye, don’t let the potato juice come in contact with the eye itself. Leave for 15 to 20 minutes.

Banana is wonderful as an anti-wrinkle treatment.
Mash 1/2 banana until very creamy. Spread all over face and leave for 15-20 minutes before rinsing off with warm water followed by a dash of cold, gently pat dry.
