Q&A: Natural Ways To Reduce Under Eye Puffiness?

puffy eyes

Q: How do you remove puffiness under the eyes?   – W. Patterson

A: Here are 10 tips to decrease the puffiness under your eyes:

1.  Go potato: Slice a raw potato (after refrigerating for a couple of minutes) into two and circle the closed eyes gently with those halves. Place it on your eyes so that it also covers the puffed areas under your eyes and leave it like that for 15-20 minutes. You’ll notice a tremendous change in those bags, as they’ll be diminished in size.

2. Milky way: If you have extremely puffed-up eyes this is the regular regime that you will have to follow. Dip cotton pads in chilled milk and place them on your eyelids and relax for 20-30 minutes. This will help your eyes with water retention and also cool them off.

3. Oily help: Take chilled water in a bowl and add a few drops of vitamin E oil to it. Mix the two well. Dip cotton pads in this mixture and place them on the eyes for 20 minutes. This will help in reducing the swelling around the eyes.
