Pampering Yourself at Home

Tip: Soothe those eyes. After a long day, our eyes can get so bleary. Cucumbers are a favorite when it comes to soothing tired eyes. And it really works! Cool them in the fridge and slice in pieces, big enough to rest on your closed eyes. If you don't want cuke eyes, or are short on green stuff in your fridge, using cotton dipped in cold water will provide a similar effect. Dip cotton balls in a glass of cold water and squeeze them a bit to avoid too much drip. Tilt your head back and place it in a relaxed position. (A neck pillow would be nice.) Put the cotton balls on each eye and just enjoy. Once you feel the cotton balls have gotten warm, you can dip them in the cold water again for another round (rinse and repeat). ahhhhhh.....
