You have to go out for a party, it is the party that you have been waiting for since ages but your eyes are all puffy making you look like a monster already.
Wish you could do something about it.
Well don’t worry there are some simple home remedies which will help you deal with this problem.
Cucumber and Potato: Nature’s best ingredients for removing puffy eyes are cucumber and potato. Strips of grated potato or cucumber placed under the eyes helps to reduce the swelling.
Stimulate your Lymphatic Nodes: You can do this by gently pressing the eyebrow and the eye socket. This will stimulate the lymphatic system and help drain excess fluid. The swelling will reduce.
The second thing you can do is take a rounded metal spoon and place it in your fridge for few minutes. When it gets cold, take it out and hold the rounded portion against your eye for few minutes. This helps in reducing the puffiness.
Mineral Water: To make your red or sore eyes look healthy and sparkling, mix 2 tbsp water to a glass of mineral water. Bathe your eyes in this solution 3-4 times a day.
Ice Cold Water: Apply a cold compress on your eyes such as cloth dipped in cold water or ice cubes in a wash cloth. When the cloth feels warm, dip it in cold water again or add more ice. Repeat this at least 4-5 times or till you feel the puffs under your eyes drained out.
Soak cotton wool pad either in iced water or ice cold milk. Lie down with dampened pads over your closed eyes. Replace the pads when warm. Continue to till puffiness reduces. This also brightens the whites of your eyes.
Tea: Applying cold tea bag wrapped in tissue on closed eyes makes the skin taut and reduces puffiness. The natural astringent in tea – tannin works wonders.
Water: By drinking enough water, your body will stay hydrated and will reduce the puffiness around your eyes.
Sleep: Make sure you get enough sleep with regular timings. Inadequate sleep shows on the eyes more than on any other part of the body. Sleep soothes the eyes and relieves fatigue.
