How to reduce puffy eyes in the morning?

A mask chilled in the refrigerator overnight seems to work great! I bought mine at the Dollar Tree! Leave it on about 15 minutes! Also reduce your sodium/salt intake for about 3-4 days before your wedding and try to get a full 8 hour sleep the night before! HA! I know that can be hard but it will help! Congratulations on your upcoming day! YEAH!!! :)

Congratulations! I've found quite by accident that for a quick fix Olay age defying revitalizing eye gel works wonders! I'd highly recommend it for your special day.

Oh boy! I know all about those puffy baggy eyes. Cool wet rag is a good start. Also something I found that feels so good and seems to make my eyes wake up. Mary Kay Indulge soothing eye gel. I also started using Mary Kay timewise Firming eye cream. I really like them both. Congrats on your engagement. Best wishes to you.

I know it sounds weird but i've heard that preperation h works on puffy eyes you might want to try it a week or so ahead of time just in case though good luck

Hi V. have you try to use te bags?
if you havent this what we do what i come from it does not cost much and might work for you.
Get gren te a put them in your eyes of course wet them first and leave them on for a lease 2o min and see what happen.

the models used to use Preparation H, but now this is warned against. I also recommend reducing almost ALL salt prior to the wedding for about 2 days. Here are other steps you can take:

1)Splash your entire face with the coldest water you can stand immediately after you wake up. Use either cold tap water or a mixture of cold water and ice cubes in a large bowl or tub. Splash your face for up to 5 minutes, if possible.
2)Prepare two tea bags by soaking them in water, wringing them out and chilling them in the refrigerator or freezer. Once they are chilled, lie down and place the bags on closed eyelids for 5 to 10 minutes.
3)Cut two slices off a cold cucumber, each approximately 1 /2 inch thick. Place a slice on each eyelid for 5 minutes.
4)Drink lots of water. Puffy eyes often indicate water retention, which you can alleviate by drinking plenty of liquids; this flushes excess salt from your system.
5)Remove contact lenses each night before bed to avoid puffiness caused by lens irritation and drying.
6)Use an aloe-based eye-soothing gel or cream.
7)Avoid rubbing eyes.

For prevention:
Raise your head with pillows. Two or three pillows will help keep fluids from pooling under your eyes.
Avoid salty foods and alcohol. Increasing the amount of salty foods (like chips and pickles) that you eat and drinking alcohol make you retain fluids that can collect in the eye area (and elsewhere).

If you still have puffiness:

Don't rub. If you do,your eyes will get irritated and red--and stay puffy.

Use a cold compress. Dunk a washcloth in cool water (or wrap ice cubes in a washcloth) and place it on your closed eyes. When the cloth gets warm, wring it out and repeat. Do this three or four times. This takes a few minutes, but it will help drain the puffs under your eyes.

Apply a cold tea bag WRAPPED IN TISSUE, otherwise, the tea will stain your skin, creating a raccoon effect. Tea contains tannin, a natural astringent. The tannin in the tea may help pull the skin taut and reduce puffiness. Five minutes should be all you need. And tannic acid (a derivative of tannin) can sting,so keep your eyes shut.
Best wishes to you on your special day :)

Ice. Put a couple of wet washcloths in the freezer and apply them to your baggy eyes in the morning for about 15 minutes. I really have found nothing that works better or quicker. It also makes the whites of your eyes look whiter (thus looking more awake).
