whats so soothing about putting cucumbers on your eyes? do you know? is there like a chemical or something in them? (link)
|
yea they do have some ingredients in them
this is what i found out:
Cucumbers are common ingredients in a lot of facial creams, masks, cleansers, etc. Cucumbers have a long folk-medicine history of being used as an astringent, or something that tightens your pores. Astringents are good at soothing sunburns and acne and reducing the appearance of pores and oily skin. In addition, cucumbers are usually cold from the refrigerator, and so help to reduce swelling (like a cold compress) and are conveniently the perfect size to put over your eyes.
