3 Ways To Eleveate Puffy Eyes

 

It’s been a while since I did a Wedding Wednesday post! A few weeks ago I shared a few bridal beauty tips over on Style Me Pretty and thought I’d share one of my (personally) most obsessed over beauty problems: puffy eyes + dark circles.  I’ve tried a lot of products and remedies here are 3 that really seem to work for me: (continue reading for the tips)

 

 

 

1. Whip 1 egg white with an electric (or hand) mixer until stiff peaks form. Gently paint it under your eyes with a makeup brush and let dry 5-10 minutes. Rinse off with warm water. You’ll notice the skin around your eyes is tighter and brighter within minutes– I swear! Best believe I’ll have “whipped egg whites” on my list of things to bring to our getting ready room on my wedding day! 

 

2. Cold spoons! My friends and roommates can attest — I’ve been known to do this trick for years, in hotel rooms, in my apartments and I still do it now. Stick 2 small spoons in the freezer for 10 minutes and place under and above your eyes. 

 

3. 8+ hours of sleep and a diet free of alcohol and sodium can also really do the trick. At least 2 days before you want to look your best eliminate salty foods and alcohol (especially wine) from your diet. I’m already wondering how I’ll avoid a cold glass of wine (and bubbly) at our rehearsal dinner!!
