Anybody know a way of getting rid of ' puffy bags" under the eyes without having to buy the latest "gimmicks"

I always have bags under my eyes and have been told it could be fluid retention but it definately is not! Would love to know if anyone knows any "natural" remedies to cure my ugly problem???

    If you'd be willing to try it, it works like magic : haemorrhoid cream.Heamorrhoid creams work on under eye bags just like they do on haemorrhoids, by shrinking the bloated blood vessels.Put some ender your eyes, (it'll tingle a bit) before going to sleep.The next morning you should be relatively puffiness free.That should take care of it atleast cosmetically

    Please get yourself checked out by an endocrinologist as surprisingly puffy eyes could be a sigsn of an underlying medical disorder such as thyroid problem or even hypertension

    I have bags under my eyes too - its been there for ages and quite frankly, I think that's something one has to live with unless you want surgery (no thanks, not for me). What I have noticed is when I wash my face with cold water say twice a day (morning and arvo) they seem to reduce abit, plus my overall appearance seems fresher, not tired. I never use makeup so its not that. The cold somehow seems to reduce the bagginess effect. Good luck.

    Those bags are a type of fat that you cannot lose..no matter how much you diet or excersize..Surgery is the only option. Dont believe me..check it out..call a doctor and ask them.
