1. Begin by selecting a fresh, clean potato. It doesn’t matter if it’s a russet, red, or Yukon gold, as long as it’s not sprouting or green.
2. Peel the potato to remove the outer skin. This ensures you’re directly applying the beneficial enzymes to the skin.
3. Slice two thin rounds from the potato, each about 1/4 inch thick.
4. Lie down comfortably and place one slice over each closed eye.
5. Relax for two minutes. You can listen to soothing music or practice deep breathing to make the experience more enjoyable.
6. After two minutes, remove the slices and gently rinse your face with cool water.
