You just won't have beautiful eyes if they are all puffed out They not only make you feel self conscious, they can hinder makeup application. There are a few ways to get rid of them, so a more beautiful you can shine through! Most people also tend to get puffiness around allergy season. That's no fun at all!
There are several ways to get rid of puffiness. Over night creams work well some nights but not others. For those occasions when puffiness just won’t go away, try these inexpensive methods.
Your body actually holds onto water if you aren’t getting enough. Your body will hold onto the water it has and hold it in reserve because it knows its not getting more.Sometimes the eyes are the first place it shows up. Your body is way smart and you should be too! Relief for Puffy Eyes1) Soak caffeinated tea bags in water. Squeeze out excess water and apply one bag to eyes for 15 minutes. The caffeine and tannins in the tea help draw out excess moisture and contract your skin. 2) Get 8 – 10 hours of sleep a night. No less and no more. Too much or not enough sleep actually makes puffiness worse. 3) Stay away from salt. Salt attracts water. If you consume too much salt, your body will actually store excess water under your eyes.
Clay masks 6) Apply a hemorrhoid cream. Hemorrhoid creams help hemorrhoids by shrinking blood vessels. Used under the eye, they can help shrink puffiness by contracting the skin. Apply overnight for best results. 7) Don’t ever tug or pull on the skin surrounding the eyes. The skin under your eyes is very delicate and so great care must be taken when applying lotions and creams. Use only your fingertips to apply them. It is also very easy to subconsciously rub the eyes when you have allergies or excessive stress. You must make a conscious effort not to do this often. Treat the skin delicately and you will see much less puffiness. 8) If you drink lots of water and still have puffy eyes, try a diruetic. These can be purchased OTC at any super store and they won’t cost you a lot to try. I have never used any but know people who have used them with some success. When you’re trying to get rid of puffiness, anything is worth trying! 9) Exercise might be what you are missing if you don’t get enough. Try incorporating some exercise into your routine. Exercise helps rid excess water in the body by eliminating it through the sweat glands. 10) Stay upright. If you want to decrease puffiness, then don’t lay down. Sit up or stand up and fluids will likely drain and that will help diminish your bloating. If you still can’t get rid of puffy eyes it may be genetic. Genetics play a large part in how you age. There is not much you can do about heredity. 11) Facial Massage. Lymph runs through your entire body and you have a lot of lymph glands on your face and neck. If it's not properly circulating, you can get puffy eyes. Do daily facial massage and do regular body brushing. Both will help increase lymph circulation and that helps decrease puffiness. 12) Try an Antihistamine and Decongestant Antihistamines can help relieve allergy symptoms and decrease on the amount of puffy eyes you'll get. Allergy medicines typically have antihistamine's in them, but always opt for the 'D'! These are antihistamine's that include a decongestant. Since puffiness is also associated with congestion, a decongestant helps get rid of symptoms. Things that detract from puffed up eyes These things can and will help draw attention to the rest of you and off of your puffy eyes. Didn't find what you were looking for?
