eye puffiness...
In b4 only males reply...
Anyway, what do female miscers use to reduce eye puffiness. New job requires an early a.m. rise and my eyes are swollen for at least two hours or so...
Yes, I get sleep (in b/w 6-8).
Yes, Im hydrated.
I bought this ****gy time eye cream "L'oreal eye defense...12 bucks!" and chit dont work.
Looking for some remedies that dont include cucumbers, freezing a spoon overnight and placing upon eye, or any other remedy found on "ask yahoo" that takes more than 15 min to work. "Ain't nobody got time for dat!!!"
So what creams, make-up, etc... Can hide baggy eyes and make you look like you had 10 hours of the greatest sleep ever?
In b4 OP is a *******.

According to my mother (and Miss Congeniality), hemorrhoid cream is supposed to work to that effect. Give me ten minutes to see if we have any and I'll get back to you with a full report.

Sleep with your head elevated, when you lay straight fluids get to your eyes and cause that

Verdict: Eh, helped a little bit. I'm sure there are better ways.

If puffiness is your greatest concern, get an eye roller. Keep it in the fridge. Roll it on your eyes for a few seconds in the morning (after you've washed) and let it do its thing.
I love, love, LOVE Dermaglow's eye roller, but I think it's only available up here. L'Oreal makes one for men. Dove probably does too. Look for one with Vitamin C and caffeine in the ingredients. Not a cream, but a gel that goes on with a roller (metal ball at the end of the tube).
And honestly, keep it in the fridge and it really wakes you up in the morning. So refreshing!

OP-
Don't know why just getting up early would suddenly cause eye puffiness if it was never a problem before.
Are you allergic to something? Do you have dust, allergens where you sleep? Is there something in your pillow that is irritating your eyes?

To be truthful, the Dermaglow is expensive.
Coincidentally, I watched the Shopping Bags last night, and they did a test of 4 different creams for eye puffiness. At the end of the day, the Kinerase was the best, but crazy expensive, and it was agreed that a cool wet cloth or an ice pack will do the same job for free!
Do you get the Shopping Bags down there? Great gals! They test different products to see what gives you your best bang for your buck. I love these gals!

No hemorrhoid cream shouldn't be used around the eyes or face: www .nbcnews.com/id/15144530/#.URHYpqX7IuA
OP you should get an ice mask like Patrick Bateman in American Psycho. You can wear one while you get ready. It really does help reduce the puffiness!

it was never a problem before because I was in college and I didn't care whether my eyes had bags underneath them or not... half the time I wore pajamas to class [didnotgiveafuark /10]. Also, most of my classes started at 11 a.m. Currently, I wake up at 6 a.m., and it does matter because I'm in a professional environment/want to look my best at all times. In my biz, appearance is almost everything.
But nah, no allergies. Allergic to nothing [food or otherwise].
