It would seem one of Angel Locsin's action sequences for TV series The General's Daughter got so intense that the actress ended up with a black eye. Posting a selfie with the injury on Instagram, she quipped, "50 Shades of Black under my eyes, na sinubukan kong i-mowdel." She then asked her followers, "Any helpful tips to get rid of black eye quickly, aside from vitamin C, arnica, & ice?"
Known for doing her own stunts, she continued, "I'm proud of my battle scars but this [girl's] gotta work." At the end of her post, she clarified that she "was not abused. Thank you!"
People shared tips, including actress Isabelle Daza who suggested, "Concealer!!"
A netizen suggested putting a "slice of small fresh pineapple" on the affected area.
Another recommended, "tea bag na nilagay lukewarm water, then gently pat it on affected area."
Two netizens also offered essential oils as a quick solution. As an alternative for arnica, Healthline.com listed helichrysum and lavender essential oils as helpful herbal treatments for bruises.
A fan told Angel to get lavender essential "that is pure," and one drop of it can already do wonders.
One follower mentioned frozen spoon. The comment read: "Put a spoon in the freezer let it sit until malamig na malamig na and then gently massage the bruised area with the back of the cold spoon."
Two of her followers advised applying cold and warm compress on the brusied area: after "a day or two of applying cold packs," switch to a warm one.
Another netizen explained, "This will increase blood flow to the area to facilitate healing."
Of course her boyfriend Neil Arce supports her all the way. He commented, "Still the most beautiful girl in the world", to which Angel replied, "asus... love yew,"
