Puffy eyes due to aging, drinking, smoking, stress or just about anything else? This is part 2 of our article on excellent home remedies that work.
Today’s cures start with the potato. Vastly underrated, this plentiful gravy-mate has a large array of anti-aging and healing qualities, including de-puffing your puffy eyes.
In many parts of Europe the potato is tried and true as a way to soothe headaches, painful joints and other inflammatory conditions. The starch in the potato also acts as an anti-inflammatory agent to ease your puffy eyes.
Directions: Peel one potato, then wash and dry it. Grate the potato as finely as possible. Place the pulp in a clean cloth and fold to make a poultice. Place the poultice on your eyelids for 15 minutes, and behold your de-puffed eyes.
Cold water. My personal experience with this one is wonderful. Before heading off to work, when you just have a few minutes to get ready, you don’t have time to pamper away with cucumber slices and potatoes, but not to worry. Cold water works in less than 8 seconds!
Directions: Turn on your faucet and wait for the water to get cold. Cup your hands, fill them with water and hold onto your face for several seconds. Repeat twice. The coolness of the water will constrict your blood vessels and dramatically reduce swelling in a few seconds. Plus, you’ll be awake by now!
Salt. French fries, pepperoni pizza and other salty foods often cause puffy eyes. However, salt by itself is great for reducing them!
Directions: Put 1/2 teaspoon salt into 1 quart of warm water. Dip cotton balls or facial pads into the solution, then lie down and apply the pads to your eyelids. Leave on for 10-15 minutes. When finished, you’ll be amazed at your younger looking de-puffed eyes.
