How to Get Rid of Bags Under Your Eyes

Do you suffer from under-eye bags or circles? Under-eye bags are a natural effect of aging, but they can also be caused by lack of sleep, allergies, and habits that promote water retention. Under-eye bags are a cosmetic concern that can make people appear tired or under the weather.


Drink plenty of water. Under-eye bags are often caused by the retention of water due to high salt concentration in the area. You might wake up with bags after eating a salty dinner or crying; whether it's from tears or food, salt can draw water to your face and cause it to collect under your eyes.
Flush excess salt from your system by drinking water. Avoid salty foods for the rest of the day.
Stay away from drinks that cause you to become dehydrated, li
ke coffee and alcohol.

Soothe your eyes with something cold.[1] You've probably heard that placing cucumbers over your eyes will help reduce bags, but it's actually the cool temperature that soothes the area. Cucumbers happen to be the perfect shape, size and texture to treat under-eye bags, so go ahead and slice one up - just make sure it's been chilling in the refrigerator beforehand.If you don't have a cucumber, wet a few teabags and chill them in the freezer or refrigerator before placing them over your eyes. Use a soothing tea, like chamomile or peppermint, so you get the benefits of aromatherapy at the same time.


Use teabags. The tannin in the teabag can sometimes help ease down under-eye bags.Boil water and dunk two teabags into the hot water.
Bob it up and down until they are soaked through.
Remove and allow to cool on a plate. If wished, cover face, nose, eyes, with paper towel or face washers.
Lie down somewhere comfortable. Place one soaked teabag over each eye. Put your feet up, relax for a few minutes.
After a little chilling out, remove the teabags. Hopefully, things will look a little less puffy when you check the mirror again.
