How to Naturally Reduce Puffiness Under Your Eyes

In today’s article we are going to address the question: Why do you have swelling or puffiness around your eyes?

While there can be many causes for that puffy swelling under the eyes, besides the natural aging process that might be a cause, this could be simply inherited facial features, allergies, stress, excess weight, eye fatigue, dry eyes and individual skin characteristics such as texture.

Whatever the cause, that puffy look is usually caused by an accumulation of fluid in the surrounding skin tissues.

Because the skin around the eyes is very thin and sensitive and like the rest of our body, with aging, the skin tends to sag and excess water and fat can then begin to accumulate behind this loose skin, which causes the puffiness.

5 Tips for Getting Rid of Puffy Bags

First, let’s talk about several simple, NATURAL remedies you may not have considered, that can help eliminate that unwanted puffiness…

1) Cool water can help reduce swelling – so splash on cold water or apply a cold compress for a few minutes;

2) Cold spoons can alleviate swelling because it tightens the skin around the eyes and relaxes blood vessels — refrigerate a teaspoon until it gets cold and then gently press the rounded part of the spoon against the puffy area until the spoon becomes warm and then replace it;

3) Apply cold teabags — this has long been a remedy for relaxing the eyes and reducing swelling and the reason it works is because teabags contain anti-irritant properties that help reduce swelling around your eyes;

4) Egg whites combined with a few drops of Witch-Hazel has a very effective skin tightening effect;

5) Potatoes can also be highly effective at reducing puffiness due to their anti-inflammatory properties. Simply grate a raw potato to extract the juice and then soak a cotton ball or pad in the juice and place it over your closed eyes for about 10-15 minutes.

NEXT, let’s talk about how you can reduce that puffiness simply with the daily use of Cardea Luxe™ Radiance Eye Renewal Cream…

Anti-inflammatory ingredients are known to help reduce swelling and because Cardea Luxe™ Skincare contains many helpful anti-inflammatory ingredients, including Borage and Evening Primrose Oil, you will definitely want to introduce Cardea Luxe™ into your daily skincare routine.

The regular use of a skincare product containing antioxidants will help to stabilize these harmful molecules, which in turn will give rise to healthier cells and reduced inflammation and swelling.

Cardea Luxe™ contains a synergistic blend of many important anti-oxidant ingredients, including Witch Hazel, Vitamin C, Co-Enzyme Q10,  Vitamin E, Cranberry , Blueberry, Apple Extract and more, which means the the daily application of Cardea Luxe™ Radiance Eye Renewal Cream will provide your skin with all that it needs so that you can always put your best face forward.
