Author: I have bags under my eyes and puffiness. How can i get rid of this naturally without using harsh chemicals. Ive tried off the counter creams, but i dont see much of a difference. Are there any natural remedies? Thank you.
Hi,
Try placing slices of raw potato over your eyes for a few minutes. You might feel ridiculous doing it, but there’s a reason it’s a time-honored home remedy—potatoes contain an enzyme that lightens pigmentation and reduces dark areas.
To reduce puffy eyes:
1. Place an eye mask in the freezer for 20 minutes.
2. Remove and wrap it in a damp wash cloth.
3. Place over eyes for 10-15 minutes. Cold temperature constricts blood vessels, slightly diminishing the flow of fluid into tissues and reducing puffiness in the process.
4. Finish up by patting eye area dry and applying a moisturizer made specifically for the delicate skin around eyes into the area.
