A natural hydrator, cucumber keeps skin fresh and soft during steamy summer months.
Cucumbers contain 95% water, making them excellent natural hydrators. Slices applied to eyes help reduce puffiness and the appearance of dark circles. The fruit is also a natural skin lightener and brightener. Here are five of our favorite cucumber-infused products.
