    Cool tea bags, cucumber slices. Cool water. Don't use ice because it is too harsh for the delicate eye area. Use gentle massage with olive oil.

    You may not believe me but this is the best remedy. Haemorroid Cream! It constricts the blood vessels, which reduce the appearance or dark circles. After using the cream, apply concealer. Also, drink lots of water. The cucumber thing is supposed to be effective due to the absorption of the water in to the eye area.

    Dark circles can treated with regular and gentle care. Cover your eyes dark circles around your eyes or dip cotton pads into freshly extracted mint juice, flatten them and place them on closed eyelids for 10 to 15 minutes. Check out http://useinfo-darkcircles.blogspot.com/ for more info.

    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.

    Keep two teaspoons in the refrigerator and when you have an attack of the swollen eyelids; rest them on your eyelids for a minimum of one minute or until they warm up.

    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 black or chamomile teabags soaked in cold water on your eyelids for 15 minutes. The tannic acid in tea will constrict the blood vessels and reduce inflammation. To accelerate drainage, gently press from the inside corner to the outside corner of the swollen eye.

    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.

    Apply a hemorrhoid cream to the puffy area around the puffy eye, being EXTREMELY CAREFUL not to get any in your eye.
