Today I am going to share a DIY face pack/mask with you, which is my grandmothers recipe which she used and passed on to us for clear skin.
She used this often in summers to prevent sunburn and clearing and toning the skin. This easy and simple eye pack removes under eye circles/puffiness and relax your eyes. You can do this twice a week or once a week to remove dark circles and clean the pores.

- Soak the cotton pads into the bowl
- Take it out and keep in fridge
- Rub the cucumber all over your face and then in last place the cotton pads on your eye.
