You don’t need a $100 cream from a fancy bottle. Make a simple green tea bag compress. Steep two tea bags, chill them in the fridge for ten minutes, then place them over your eyes for 15 minutes. The caffeine in the tea tightens skin and reduces puffiness. Plus, you can sip the tea afterward—it’s a two-for-one deal!
Another kitchen hero? Aloe vera gel. Dab a little under your eyes, let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse. It’s cooling, hydrating, and gentle enough for even sensitive skin. If you don’t have aloe, use plain yogurt—it’s packed with lactic acid that gently exfoliates. Just don’t lick it off, okay? Save that for breakfast.
