Tired, stressed-skin is quite a common and frequent problem. All you need to liven-up tired; sagging skin on your face and neck is fresh cucumber and tomato!
Wash and peel the cucumber. Cut thin and even slices. Put it in the freezer for about 7 to 10 minutes.
First, clean your face using a suitable cleanser, face wash or a mild soap and plain water, whichever you prefer. The idea is to make the skin on the face clean and free of dirt before the application of the slices.
Lie down, place the moist and chilled slices on your closed eyes, neck and all over your face and relax for about 10-15 minutes. The slices should overlap each other without allowing any skin to peep through.
You must be wondering how those thin cucumber slices are going to liven-up your tired skin. Its astringent juices will freshen skin’s texture and tighten open pores, thus uplifting the sagging skin. You have to see it to believe it!

If yours is an extra oily skin with pimples and blackheads sprinkled over it, use tomato slices instead of cucumber, or use both. Tomato is slightly acidic and is simply great for closing yawning pores- fast!
