These are the dark and discoloured spots which appear on the skin due to the excess production of melanin.

Green Tea contains compounds like, EGCG and Vitamin C which have great dipigmentating effects and also reduces the production of melanin.

 You can simply place wet and cooled green tea bags over your eyes and leave it on for 10 minutes for treating under eye pigmentation.

You could also make a green tea mask-
