RELAX, DON'T DO IT!

Get ready to start the day with cucumber!
It is rich in sulfur, so it is very suitable for treating the skin: in fact it is able to lighten age spots, thanks to its decongestant properties.

The flesh of the cucumber is mostly water, but also contains ascorbic acid (vitamin C) and caffeic acid, both of which help soothe skin irritations and reduce swelling–these acids prevent water retention, which may explain why cucumbers applied topically are often helpful for swollen eyes, burns and dermatitis.
