AHHHH!!!! You've woken up and can barely
see through your puffy eyes. Long night of crying? drinking? Baby keeping you
up? Or just literally NO sleep?
Consuming too much alcohol dehydrates the body
and can lead to puffy eyes. As well as crying – the salt in your tears, retains
water. Not to mention the pressure your poor eyes go through with loud sobs.
Even eating salty foods can cause puffy eyes.
Here are some simple solutions to help get
rid of those puffy eyes, and get those peepers back to normal!
Chilled Tea Bags
After you have brewed your morning tea,
place the tea bags on a plate in the fridge to cool down. Place the chilled tea
bags on your eyes for about 10-15 minutes. Caffeine draws water away from the
skin for creating a tighter appearance.
Chilled Sliced Cucumbers
Place sliced cucumbers over your closed
eyes and let this delicious veggie do its work. The coolness combined with the
hydration from the cucumber will help minimize any puffiness.
Witch Hazel
A natural skin tightening astringent. Apply
two cotton pads soaked in cold witch hazel to your eyes for about 5 minutes.
Chilled Spoons
Place two pre chilled spoons for 5 or 10
minutes on your eyes to help relieve any swelling.
Using eye creams with caffeine and
antioxidants help to tighten skin. And products with chamomile as an ingredient
in them helps calm inflammation.
So cut back on the salty foods, and booze and
make sure to drink plenty of H2O to help reduce puffy eyes. Especially before a
special event!
