The puffiness in our under eye area is caused by several different things..
Dehydration, PMS,salt intake,alcohol,stress, Lack of sleep,genetics,wearing sunglasses that are not proper and even from being on the computer too much..

Try sleeping with your head elevated so fluids flow away from the upper area of the eyes at night.( look for a curved pillow at a bedding store to help you stay elevated through-out the night). Cut down on your salt intake..and drink more water..

In the morning pat around the eyes with an herbal extract that has chamomile or comfrey in it.

An when all else fails use a dab of Preperation H (cream or gel) under the eye for a smoother look..
use only a dab...but it will help perk up and smooth puffy eyes.

Heres lookin' at ya...

Thanks for the tips Funzi. I have heard of the Prep-H for years but never remember to try it. Dang, I do all the no-nos you listed.

Does your mother or father have puffy eyes how about your brothers or sisters?

Keeping cold cucumber in the fridge helps in the mornings just slice them and lay them on the eyes for a couple of minutes (10-15) then begin your morning "get ready" ritual..

Chris,

any good tips for under eye wrinkles?? I'm 25 and have serious wrinkles working already. I am addicted to tanning and being outside but I know you won't tell me to avoid the sun.

I'll buy whatever you tell me to, I'll mail you a check. I am in desperate need of a good facial or at least a good under-eye cream.

You have allergies..
This is why your eyes are puffy and getting etched..

Use your eye drops..and try the cold cucumbers..

Please be very careful you patch test all facial products behind the ear..before you put them on your face.. you are prone to high reactions..

When wanting to buy an eye cream hold a small amount near the open eye on a Q-tip.. if your eye begins to water a tad, or sting.. DO NOT patch test a small amount.. you may have a bad reaction to it..
Even if it is sensitivity approved.. it may not be right for you..
You are going to have to be very very careful what you use.

Love, C
