Puffy eyes

learnerplates

Does anyone know of a solution for puffy eyes?

Naturally puffy under the eye but worsen when tired, getting worse as the years go by too, is there a solution which maybe could be used weekly to reduce the puffyness?

I got a cream from the chemist, a sample in fact, it's didn't do very much except tighten the skin under the eye, like a gel.

ya cant beat the old wives tale of using a used cold(still wet) tea bag twice a week.it really does help.

It's not a long term treatment but another one is put two teaspoons in the fridge for a while and then rest them under the eyes when cold.

Preparation H used as an eye cream.


Mod Edit: Read the label of the ointment. I'm guessing it says Avoid contact with eyes. Hopefully someone can clarify that for me.

Ya my mam mentioned this the other day, she looks great for her age (she's 118 I believe) so give it a shot

sounds good, have to keep some in my toilet bag too for weekends away when they're needed most.

what's preparation H ?

Keep a gel mask in ur fridge and wear it around the house as much as possible

Also, SLEEP

Lack of sleep gives you puffy eyes, and rubbing tired eyes just makes it worse

Another good tip is wearing sunglasses when your on the computer, if you use it much / late at night

Feels a lot more comfortable

Cream for piles.

Teabags and freezer spoons do work, but you can buy sleepmasks that help with bags under the eyes too.

Thanks for the advice.
Pile cream, sunglasses, teabags and masks, I'll try most of them.
