ok so i have a hugeee problem. i sort of have bags under my eyes. its not a puffiness from allergies or from sickness or anything, its just like there. it makes me feel really self concious because they are kinda of big. it makes me feel really old because i use old womans eye reguvinating stuff, and im only fifteen. i was wondering of any homeade or store bought products to use to make my eyes look better, other than cucumbers? and does the burts bees eye cream work? thanks in advance.

It is not too unusal for someone of your age to have puffiness around the eyes. You should make sure that you get enough sleep (at least 8-10 hours per night) and drink plenty of water. Depending on where you live and the humidity etc the amount will vary however a good rule is at least 3 litres a day.

Once you start doing this it will take a few weeks to see any results however I would also advise using an eye cream that has SPF in it to protect the delicate eye area from the sun (even in winter).

Clinique do a very good one and although it is more expensive than some other brands a little goes a long long way so it will last a lot longer. On that note, you don't need a lot of eye cream to see results - too much is just a waste.

This link will take you to Clinique's website where you will find all of their eye creams.

Garnier also do some great eye creams (Stop in the orange tube and Nutrionist in the green tube).
