Coconut Oil as a DIY Eye Cream

By Alexia of Lexi’s Green Guide

My esthetician put me on to using coconut oil as an inexpensive eye cream. While coconut oil is comedogenic, meaning it is more likely to clog pores, it is safe to use around your eyes. Coconut oil will hydrate your eyes and alleviate those dark circles. I apply the coconut oil every night.

Going where no woman has gone before…prep yourself for my after workout, no makeup, no filter, under poor lighting, dark circles in all it’s glory selfies.

Before

After

After one week my under eye circles are disappearing. Now I can trash that expensive eye cream garbage I bought.

Ladies, have you tried coconut oil as a DIY eye cream?
