Home Remedies For Puffy Eyes
When it comes to getting rid of puffy eyes, a simple cold pack can work is the easiest home remedy. If you don’t have a cold pack for eyes, a bag of frozen vegetables is a good substitute. Simply lie down on the bed with your head propped up to encourage drainage of the under eye fluid (which causes the puffy eyes) and place the cold pack or bag of frozen vegetables over your eyes. Relax for fifteen minutes. The cold from the frozen pack will reduce the swelling and eliminate the puffy eyes.
If you don’t have the 15 minutes to lie down, another home remedy for puffy eyes is Preparation H. Apply a thin layer of Preparation H under your eyes and allow it to work its magic while you get ready for work. Wash the Preparation H off with warm water before you leave as it has a faint odor and tends to be sticky.
