Home remedies for dark circles under eyes

My friend, who is about to get married in 2 months, is asking me how to get rid of dark circles under eyes. Since I have no idea on how to get rid of them, I asked Mr. Google and found the following home remedies and suggested her to try them:

1. Drink at least ten glasses of water everyday.
2. Eight hours of sleep is a must.
3. Close your eyes and cover eyelids with slices of raw potato or cucumber for 15-20 minutes. Wash with warm water and apply a cream.
4. Make a 1:1 mixture of fresh potato and cucumber juices. Soak some cotton and put on your eyelids and keep for 20 minutes. Wash your                     eyes with cold water.
5. Apply a mixture of lemon and tomato juice (equal parts) on the dark circles 2 times a day.
6. Apply a paste of turmeric powder with pineapple juice for dark circles under the eyes.
7. Crush some mint and apply it around the eye.
8. Massage with almond oil under and around eyes at bed time daily for 2 weeks and see the improvement.
9. Rub the area with a powdered Vitamin E capsule and wipe off with a mixture of honey and egg white to reduce darkness around the eye.
10. Put hot and cold clothes alternatively under eyes for 10 minutes. Then apply some almond oil on the dark surface before going to bed.
