Hey guys! I have really bad eye bags and I'm trying to get rid of them. Anyone know of creams or methods that are effective in getting rid of eye bags?

Apparently putting cold spoons against your eyes works. Put them in the fridge or freezer for a little while first.

it depends whether they are actually bags, or dark rings, or discolouration around the eye area.

There ARE creams out there, but i havent tried any of them.

The whole cucumber thing works though. But makeup = win.

bags under ur eyes doesn't necessarily mean u haven't slept.

i always have bags. they get darker when i dont sleep, yes, but also when my blood pressure is low.

But I don't know how to fix it lol

I sometimes steal my Mum's stuff- Eye Gel, from Jurlique. It seems to work. ^_^

Cold tea bags!

And if not, use concealer. Duhh.
if it's caused by fatigue, tea bags work great. camomile tea bags are best, wet them and chill them in the freezer for a couple of minutes, then lie down and put them over your undereye area for 10-12 mins, turning the teabags every couple of minutes when one side dries out.

Preparation H - it's a hemorrhoid cream makeup artists swear by. ;)

Otherwise anything with caffeine is supposed to help (hence the tea bags method).
