Any ideas of how i can get rid of these ugly things, or at least cover them up?

Ok...this is going to be long, but hopefully it will help you!! :D

First you need to choose an eye treatment. Face creams and oils are too heavy for the eye area. They can block tear ducts, causing puffiness, so you should choose a specific eye treatment that won't aggravate your skin. There are hundreds of products to choose from. Gel-based ones are great for young or oily skins, and are refreshing to use. However, most women find light creams and balms more suitable.

Use a tiny amount of the eye treatment, as you don't want to overload this area. It's better to apply it regularly in small quantities than apply lots only occasionally. Apply with your ring finger, as this is the weakest one on your hand and won't stretch the delicate skin. This will help keep your skin more supple, and prevent premature wrinkling in this area.

These ideas can also help:

~ Gently tap your skin with your ring finger when you're applying the eye cream to encourage the excess fluid to drain away.

~ Store creams in the refridgerator, as the coldness will also help reduce puffiness.

~ Place strips of grated potato under your eyes to help reduce swelling. Strawberries and cucumber will also help reduce swelling.

~ Fill a small bowl with iced water or ice-cold milk. Soak a cotton pad with the liquid and lie down with the dampened pads over your eyes. Replace the pads as soon as they become warm. Continue for 15 minutes. As well as reducing puffiness, this treatment will brighten the whites of your eyes.

Best of luck to you!

~ Amanda ;)
