Dark circles can appear due to a lot of reasons. Lack of sleep, consumption of alcohol, caffeine and not drinking enough water are some of the common reasons for under eye circles. The delicate area under your eye becomes thin, dehydrated and makes the blood vessels more prominent resulting ugly circles around the eyes. However, hydrating foods and those rich in mineral can bring about a noticeable difference, include the following in your daily diet right away and watch those dark circles disappear.
Cucumber contains high water content making it a classic beauty food. Including a few slices of it in your diet can hydrate the body and skin keeping several skin issues at bay. It also contains vitamin K which improves the elasticity of the skin.
Watermelon
With a highest water content of 92%, watermelon instantly rehydrates the body by balancing the water ratio. The many antioxidants present in it support eye health and reduce the appearance of dark circles. Snack on a few slices during the day or include in smoothies or juices.
Tomato
The richest source of lycopene, tomatoes protects the delicate blood vessels around the eyes. It also improves circulation to the eyes. Eat at least one medium or seven cherry tomatoes each day by adding to your salad.
Beetroot
Beetroot contains essential components that lighten skin and impart a healthy glow. The betalain antioxidant in this vegetable is extremely useful for improving eye health. Other than reducing dark circles it also improves eyesight. Drink a glass of beetroot juice in the morning to reap maximum benefits.
Proteins
