Sick of looking tired with puffy bags under your eyes? Read the tips below on what is the best treatment for bags under your eyes and start looking refreshed and rejuvenated now!
Eat a healthy diet. Eating well keeps your skin healthy and is the first step to reducing bags under your eyes. Eat fruits and leafy green vegetables that contain antioxidants, vitamin A, vitamin E and vitamin C – all essential for healthy, firm skin. It is also important to get omega-3 fatty acids in your diet which encourages soft, hydrated skin. One of the best ways to get omega-3 fatty acids is by eating fish or taking daily fish oil tablets.
Drink lots of water. Keeping your body hydrated by drinking 8 to 10 glasses of water a day is a great way to keep bags from developing underneath your eyes. Water keeps the skin hydrated and from puffing up.
Sleep in a way that reduces baggy eyes. Make sure you get enough sleep every night, which should be around 8 hours for the average person. You should also sleep facing upright with your head elevated on a pillow or two. Sleeping at an incline reduces fluid build up underneath your eyes and prevents bags from forming.
Reduce inflammation with cold compresses. You can use a cold wash cloth, chilled wet tea bags or cold slices of cucumber to reduce swelling underneath your eyes in the morning. Let the cold compress of your choice sit over your eyes for 10 to 15 minutes. The puffiness should go down within that time.
