You might have observed that as you get older the skin around your
eyes changing and that means that fluid filled bags of skin can start to
show under or around your eyes. There can be various reasons behind the
formation of puffy bags under your eyes and some of them are out of
your control while others you can modify or alter. In addition there are
several effective holistic home remedies for the treatment of bags
under eyes. Your skin has stretched and become thinner as it ages
Inherited genetics from someone's parents is an important factor in
how healthy their skin is and the way it changes as it ages. Your
heredity can not be altered and getting older is inevitable however
several other reasons which cause eye bags can definitely be controlled.
Having a healthy and active lifestyle with a minimum of skin damaging
bad habits is an excellent treatment for bags under eyes. You can age
and damage the skin with habits like smoking and alcohol consumption, so
if in case you have these habits, stopping them could be considered as a
treatment for bags under eyes.
The diet which people consume can even have a big role in the
healthiness of their skin. A low sodium diet needs to be followed
because excessive amount of salt tends to encourage the body to retain
surplus fluids and that could make eye bags form. Lots of water must be
consumed on a daily basis so as to ensure that the body is properly
hydrated. To keep the skin layers healthy the body must get a good
supply of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, fatty acids and other vital
nutrients so it can control damage done to the skin by toxins and free
radical molecules.
A relatively new but extremely popular treatment for bags under eyes
is that of facial exercises. These can help remove puffy eye bags by
tightening up the skin as well as toning the ligaments and muscle
tissues underneath. One such work out involves keeping two fingers
underneath the eyes and pressing slightly while closing the eyelids and
rolling the eyes upwards simultaneously. Getting a full night of sleep
on a routine basis helps to prevent puffy eye bags and if the head is
elevated by using extra pillows any excess accumulated fluids will drain
away by way of gravity while the body is sleeping.
Keeping a cold object onto the eye bags is a natural treatment for
bags under eyes that has been popular for centuries. Slices of cucumber
were traditionally applied however green tea bags are now popular for
the reason that certain ingredients present in them have
anti-inflammatory properties. Liquid vitamin E is a very good treatment
for bags under eyes if it is massaged gently into the delicate skin near
the eyes. Honey has long been a favorite traditional remedy for puffy
eye bags and so have face masks prepared out of crushed papaya or
bananas. Rinsing with cold water can also reduce eye bags.Sean Thomas Saunders
