Eye bag remedy?

[deanna]

I hear heamorrhoid creams can be used to relieve eye bags, is this harmful?

[bobtheturkey]

eye drops are a right pain in the ass though

I've never found it so, just make sure it doesn't get in your eye itself. it reduces the puffiness like other things it's meant to decrease :)

It can be very greasy as well, I tend to put it on with a cotton bud, dab it on lightly rather than rubbing it in as your undereye area is very sensitive.

Make sure you drink lots of water too and get decent sleep and try and minimise stress which can also help.

There was a thread a day or so ago where there were loads of other tips about covering them up too.

Hiya deanna, Many AB'rs have said pile ointment work's wonders on eye bags. One of my sister's used pile ointment on her face when she was on holiday abroad,she did'nt use enough sun protector and she was left with blister's but the pile ointment cleared them up. Daisy.

it does but make sure you get the non-steroidal ones. these are in gel form rather than ointment and will not thin the tissue around the eyes
