Everybody complains of dark circles or puffy eyes at some point or the other in life. And we've all tried our hands on some expensive eye creams and god knows what all home remedies to get rid of them. But nothing really works as much as we expect it to and we're still left looking like a zombie. Hence, let us tell you this one very important and most wondrous natural way to say good-bye to your dark circles.

Potatoes! Yes, we know you already know it, but have you really tried it religiously to let it do its magic? If you're someone who believes in potatoes to be a naturally bleaching agent, stop right there. They do exactly the opposite of it. But they do contain vitamin C which helps in brightening the skin. Potatoes are also rich in vitamin K which decreases the purple bruising under the eyes if any. The lack of vitamin B3 causes dark circles and so, it gives you even more reasons to eat potatoes as it is absorbed better that way than applying it. The one very important thing that potatoes contain is niacin, which is a newly-famous agent that treats even the most stubborn acne scars.

Just like cucumbers, potatoes are very water-rich and also stays cool for a long time. This is why it helps your skin to absorb the nutrients. Potatoes also cure puffiness which is quite a common thing for a lot of us. The coldness of a potato slice helps tone down swelling and inflammation under your eyes.

Do you even need more reasons to bring on the potatoes and say good-bye to dark circles and puffy eyes!? We think not!
