Natural Health - Help Puffy Eyes

What is it that makes those peepers puffy?

• Too much sodium intake


• Allergies


• Genetics


• Crying


• Fatty tissue deposits


• Water retention

What can we do to prevent, minimize, or eliminate the puffiness? You could get surgery, but what if we don't want to opt for the knife? Here are some natural remedies to use:

• Black Tea:
  
  Black Tea is an astringent with tannins that helps with puffy eyes. Make 2 cups of tea and place used bags in fridge. Once teabags are chilled, remove from fridge, lie down, close eyes, and place one tea bag over each eye. Keep on for 10 to 20 minutes.
  
  


• Chamomile Tea:
  
  German chamomile is an anti-inflammatory. Use tea bags over the eyes with the same directions as the black tea.
  
  
  
  
• Drink dandelion tea:
  
  Dandelion tea is a mild diuretic (helps you eliminate water and fluid in the tissues)
  
  
  
  

• Chilled Teething Rings:
  
  Use chilled teething rings over your closed eyes for puffiness.
  
  
  
  

• Cooled slices of cucumber:
  
  It's the "spa-look", the cucumbers over the eyes - but very effective for puffy eyes!
  
  
  

• Increase water intake:
  
  To mobilize fluid out of the body you should increase your intake (unlike what most people think). The more purified water you drink, the more it will help move the fluid out of the body.
  
  
  

• Preparation H®:
  
  This is not a fallacy, Preparation H® [manufactured to shrink hemorrhoid tissue] can also reduce swelling under the eyes. This is one of the secrets of the stars! Dab a small amount under the eye being careful not to get it into the eye.
  
  
• Conceal:
  
  Correction makeup is a blessing for puffiness and dark circles under the eyes. It is important that the proper amount be used. The tip here is to minimize the amount of concealing makeup. The more concealer you use, the more attention you will bring to your eyes. Use a small amount with a light touch and sweep upward when applying.
