Help Reduce Eye Bags & Dark Circles

If you are like me your eyes are starting to show their

age or even your lack of sleep. Maybe you're wondering

why they are so bad? Over time our skin naturally loses

collagen and it grows thinner. There are ways to help.

Which is why it's best to keep up with your good habits

to help reduce the dark circles and bags. Eating healthy

and exercising is an important thing to do but here are some

other things to help possibly reduce the bags and circles.

Use a cold compress in the morning, cucumbers are a good

way to be used as a cold compress because they have skin

lightening and mild astringent properties.

Tomatoes? Yes you just read that right. Tomatoes are

high in lycopene which is a substance that's excellent for your cardiovascular health, vision and your skin. Lycopene can

help create softer, more supple skin as well as decrease

the appearance of dark eye circles. To gain these

benefits mix equal parts of tomato juice with lemon juice.

Dip a cotton ball or makeup remover pad and apply it under

your eyes. Leave the solution for 10 minutes and then rinse

with warm water. Do this twice a day, I suggest once in the

morning and once before bed.

Cold tea bags can work as well, you just need to get them

wet, put them in the fridge for about a half an hour and then

place them on your eyes for about 10 minutes. This is another

great "cold compress".

Vitamin E oil and Coconut oil work wonders too, place a little

bit under your eyes before you go to bed and rinse off in the morning followed up by a cold compress.

Eat more dark chocolate, salmon and drink more water.

Try to get 8 hours of sleep, exercise and mediation.

These are all healthy routines that aren't just good for

your eyes but your face and your whole body!

Buffalo Chicken Nachos

I tried to look up buffalo chicken shit on a shingle with no recipes but I came across this one.

Anyways, here ya go. Recipe makes 6-8 servings. What you'll need: Nachos.... 1/3 - 1/2c you're favorite hot sauce 3c cooked shredded chicken 8-10oz tortilla chips 1 1/3 - 2c shredded Mexican blend cheese Topping.... 1/2c plain greek yogurt 3-5T more of hot sauce 3-4 green onions thinly sliced Create: Preheat the oven to 400˚F. In a medium bowl, mix the hot sauce with the shredded chicken until well coated. Set aside. Place the tortilla chips in an even layer on a baking sheet, face side up so the chips will hold the toppings. Add the chicken evenly over the chips, followed by the cheese. Bak

Below are a few ideas to try next time you start looking like Rudolph. Drink plenty of fluids Run a humidifier or vaporizer Use saline solution and or a Neti Pot (make your own mixture for the Neti Pot by dissolving 1tsp of sea salt in 1 pint of distilled water.

Lower the pot to a simmer and take a towel over your head and put your head over the pot. Chicken Soup, yes you read that right!
