Puffy eyes...Tea Bags? Cream?

I've had this irritating puffy eye for the past 2 days. Not red or itchy just puffy and dry. From lack of sleep and working online for the past couple of days. I read about cold compresses and tea bags also cucumbers. Is there a particular brand of tea bags I need to buy? Also what is the best aloe-based eye-soothing gel or cream? I'm 6 months pregnant so nothing medicated. Safe and easy to use? Thanks!Puffy eyes...Tea Bags? Cream?
Drink at least ten glasses of water everyday.





Close your eyes and cover eyelids with slices of raw potato or cucumber for 15-20 minutes. Wash with warm water and apply a cream


Grate a cucumber, squeeze to take out its juice and refrigerate. Make a mixture of lemon juice, lanolin cream and cucumber juice and apply around the eye for 10-15 minutes





Apply a paste of turmeric powder with pineapple juice for dark circles under the eyes


Apply a mixture of lemon and tomato juice (equal parts) on the black circles 2 times a day








Dip some cotton in a 1:1 mixture of potato and cucumber juices. Put the cotton on your eyelids and keep for 20 minutes. Wash your eyes with cold water








Remove the cream applied around the eye after 10 min. No cream should be left on the skin around the eyes for long periods





It could be because of poor blood circulation around the areas and some light massage can help.





you can also try:





Carrot x 200g


Apple x 100g


Pineapple x 50g


A bit of Honey


Method:





Put carrot, pineapple and apple in the juicer and juice them. When it鈥檚 done, put a bit of honey in to make it tasty.





I believe together with regular exercise would certainly help a lot in improving the blood circulation, too - more effectivePuffy eyes...Tea Bags? Cream?
any plain tea, tea bags will work. also if you wet a towel with cold water and but it on the bags of your eyes that will also help.
actually.. i have read this article in a beauty magazine that you can also use potato slices on your eyes.. just put them on for five to ten minutes and the puffiness will go away.. you can even use cucumbers..
