how to treat dark circles?

Dark circles occur due to strain. Just cut down the strain given to the eyes. protect them from heat/ sun etc. wear shades (UV glasses). there are a lot of remedies. but u have to be patient for the results. it might take anywhere from a week to a month. * place thin slices of cucumber on your eyes and relax for 15-30 minutes. it cools the eyes. * Use home made face packs like mixing milk with turmeric and besan ka atta. * Gentle massage with rose water. anyways for an instantaneous cover up use concealer. But u wanna remove dark circles and not merely cover them up, so its better to have a healthy diet, with less strain to the eyes and of course give massage to eyes. It helps.

I used to put cucumbers---kinda refreshing, but i haven't tried it for long, so i don't know if it's really effective. i have tried to use concealer-- not effective for me.
