for blotchy skin, green tea helps even out skin tone and the antioxidants in it help keep it looking fresh.
about the under eye circles, idk.

  3. Here's some help -

    Remedies For Dark Circles

    * An instant dark circles remedy is to use the correct concealer. The shade should be lighter than your foundation. If circles are very dark, choose 2 shades lighter. Great choices can be Revlon New Complexion Concealer, Estee Lauder Smoothing Skin Concealer, Cover Girl Smoothers Concealer, or Neutrogena Smoothing Skin Stick.

    * Apply a good Vitamin K cream. Vita-K Solution gel or Peter Thomas Roth Power K Eye Rescue help strengthen capillary walls around the dark circles to make them less visible.

    * One should go for laser treatment only if the case is chronic. Lasers can increase production of collagen thereby thickening skin to make dark circles less visible.

    * Home remedies for dark circles can include the following:
    1. Drink plenty of water to combat dehydration.
    2. Wear at least SPF 30 sunscreen to prevent more sun damage.
    3. Get enough sleep.
    4. Leave cold teabags, cucumber or potato slices, or washcloths with ice cubes on eyes for 15 minutes regularly.
    5. Take iron supplements if anemic, but consult your doctor first.
    6. Identify the allergens and avoid them. Whether it be pollen, food, whatever, avoidance is the best solution to this. And avoid rubbing your eyes.

    * Hylexin is the first dark circles eye cream developed for serious dark circles. Featured in several magazines such as Marie Claire, FashionWeekDaily, The Wall Street Journal , Star and Luck.

    * One of the greatest remedies for dark circles is Arbonne's NutriMinC® RE9 Repair. It’s a corrective puffiness and dark circles eye cream that does additional benefits – firming, moisturizing and repairing the delicate tissue around the eye.

  4. Instead of buying expensive cleanser use powdered milk mixed with water. Always use warm water when cleaning your skin. Hot water robs the skin of its natural oils, which teens need at least a little to keep their skin balanced.
    Then, instead of toner...mix a teaspoon of lemon juice with 1/2 teaspoon of tepid water. Lemon shrinks the pore and it has amazing results. Do this every morning as a routine and your blotchy face problem will be relieved.
    PS- Milk and yogurt applied to the skin will lessen reddening.

    Now for the circles around your eye.
    Apply sliced potatoes under the eye and lie down for five minutes, allowing the juices to seep in. Treat with the contents of a vitamin K capsule.

    This stuff really works, because I've tried it all. And the advice was given to me by a professional model.
