Use Right Products And Ingredients
Increase The Potassium Intake
A healthy intake of potassium acts as a counterbalance to high sodium levels. Too much sodium intake and not enough potassium not only causes puffy eyes but affects your cardiovascular health as well. Leafy greens, bananas, avocados, beans and yogurt are rich sources of potassium and help restore the balance in your body and reduce the water retention that contributes to eye bags. You can also switch to potassium supplement if you’re not satisfied with the natural sources of potassium.
Massage Your Eye Contour
Lymphatic drainage massage is form of gentle massage to reduce swelling and improve circulating throughout the lymphatic system. There are many massaging tools for your eye area out there, including the LADUORA® VELVE 4-in-1 Facial Wand, which is known to be the best tool for reducing eye puffiness and dark circles. I recommend using VELVE facial wand to the under-eye and brow area, focusing on an upward and outward motion to encourage lymphatic movement for optimized results.
