I am a guy 20 years old and am developing puffiness under my eye. I dont think i have bags YET but dont watn to get them. Do any of the eye products from Murad Avon or Rodan and Fields work?? When I smile there seems to be like a lil bump under my eye what is that?? How do I get rid of it? When I dont smile its not there what do I do?!! Does Prep H ointment work?? I am using that now as i type….. Help Thank You.
Has anyone tried Bee Royal Products Retextureyes? Does it really work for dark under-eye circles?
AVON has some very good products for under eye puffiness. I think the last time I looked up the products for a client, there were three of them. However, from what I’ve read in your note, I’m conserned for you. Before you put anything on your face, I’d go see a doctor to rule out that it isn’t a medical situation. Puffiness can be a sign of something else and a doctor could rule that out for you.
Don’t use preparation H. That’s for your aS$. Use cucumber slices on your eyes for an hour while you rest and relax. I use Oil of Olay products -they are fabulous for under eye puffiness. That and and ice-pack type eye mask.
Good luck!

Preventing PuffyDark Eyes:
Stay hydrated!!! If you are thirsty, you are dehydrated. When properly hydrated, your urine will be nearly clear. (Note that some drugs and foods can alter the color of your urine.)
Lower your salt intake. The body can only store salt in fluid suspension – which will gather in the skin around your eyes. (Bonus: Lowering your salt consumption can improve your overall health.)
Never sleep wearing eye make-up. Regardless of how tired you may be, always use an eye make-up remover and continue until the cotton ball or pad shows no signs of make-up. Use a cotton pad rather than a tissue because it is less irritating. Removing eye make-up will prevent it from entering the eyelid and causing irritation.
Beware of bacteria. Speaking of eye make-up…Do not use mascara or any other eye product that is older than a few months. Bacteria that have grown in the make-up would love a new home in your eyes, and will cause your eyelids to swell. On this note it is probably a good idea not to share your eye products with anyone else either.
Be sure you get enough quality, regular sleep.
Sleep with your head elevated to allow better circulation and prevent fluid from collecting around your eyes.
Sleep on your back so that gravity does not route fluid directly to your eyes.
Getting Rid of Puffy/Dark Eyes:
Dip cotton balls in ice cold cucumber or potato juice and let rest on eyes for 10-15 min
Wear a mask that is filled with cold water or gel for a few minutes when you wake up in the morning.
Wrap pieces of ice in paper towels and place them on your eyelids for a few minutes. The cold will reduce the swelling.
Keep your eye creams in the refrigerator. The cool cream will help reduce your puffy eyes. When applying the cream, gently tap it onto your eyelid with your ring finger, so as to stimulate fluid drainage.
Soak cotton-wool pads in a bowl of ice-cold milk and then squeeze most of the liquid out. Place the pads on your eyes and repeat as they warm up for about 15 minutes. This will also brighten the white in your eye.
Dip cotton balls in ice water, and then squeeze the water out. Apply the cotton balls to your eyes for 5-10 minutes.
Place slices of cucumber, potatoes, or apple over the puffy eyelids for 10-15 minutes. Potatoes will reduce dark circles under the eyes and apples have pectin which aids in anti-oxidation.
Give your eyes a salt bath by soaking cotton pads in a saline solution or a solution of one teaspoon of salt in one pint of hot water. Place the pads on your puffy eyelids for a few minutes.
