Causes of Puffy Eyes
Water Retention
Foods: Eating salty food can lead to water retention around the eyes.
Dehydration: Lack of water inhibits the water flow around the eyes.
Allergies
Stress
Sleeping position: Sleeping in your stomach can lead to puffy eyes because the fluids in your body go to the head and don’t circulate properly.
Lack of sleep
Heredity
Crying: Crying causes more blood to flow through the eyes which leads to swelling.
Remedies
Sleep with your head elevated so that fluids don’t go to your head.
Drink a lot of water to trigger water flow and get fluids stuck under the eyes out.
Avoid eating too much salty foods.
Limit alcohol intake.
Place cool cucumber slices, frozen spoons or cool tea bags over your closed eyes. The cool temperature stimulates circulation under the eyes.
Put on de-puff eye cream or gel. Patricia Wexler’s Fastscription Instant De-puff Eye Gel is the 2008 best depuffing eye product voted by Allure.
Eat low-carb diet to prevent water retention
