Cold Teabags

15 Feb 2005

Does anyone know if its true that cold teabags are good for taking the dark rings under your eyes away. Was told to try it but I'm not sure if the person who told me was taking the mick.
I have these disgusting looking dark rings under my eyes and they make me look as if Ive been out boozing all weekend and I really want to get rid of them.
If the teabag thing isnt true does anyone have any idea as to how to get rid of them apart from cucumber???
Cheers

Try cucumberslices instead Im sure there must be somekind of staining that comes from tea bags!

I've heard of that trick.... dont know if it works any better than toothpaste on a love bite... worth a try though....alternatively you could go to the opticians... might be bruising caused by squinting...or not enough sleep... or being whacked in the eyes by a big set of boobs..... um...I'll stop now... rolleyes

I remember my Aunty used to use cold tea bags as fake tan when I was a nipper ( they have tanin which helps the colour apparently) so id say theyd have the opposite effect to what you want . Id reccomend a day off , half a bottle of Vodka and the long long sleep that follows.

This is usually caused by tiredness but also can mean that you havent drank enough water today. Cold Teabags only reduce any swelling. smile

Me too hun, but mine are caused by ES tickling me just as I was putting on some waterproof mascara and I stupidly thought rubbing it with water might help!!!!! :doh:

You could try making the rest of your face the same colour as the rings, that way they won't show up
:doh:

Yes, it should replace them with two brown rings. That ought to do it. wink

If you can't find time to relax and get more beauty sleep, would some light foundation help ? Not that I know anything about make up.
