[CALM ELECTRONIC MUSIC] You can get rid of puffy eyes or under-eye bags in three
ways. [CALM ELECTRONIC MUSIC]
Number one, again, you need to moisturize. You really need your body to depuff your under-eye bags and get rid of all the toxins that build up there.
Sometimes your diet can cause a lot of extra fluid to actually collect under your eyes. So if you have sushi and a lot of soy sauce the night before,
you're going to wake up the next morning with more fluid under your eyes. So try to correct your diet a little bit there.
The second thing you can use, the little secret, is actually paper tape. If you did have that high-soy-sauce, high-salt meal,
and you know you're prone to those bags the next day, put a little paper tape under your eyes when you go to sleep the night before.
And when you wake up in the morning, and you take away the tape, you will not have the same collection of fluid under your eyes.
That's a secret way to minimize the bags. And the third way is-- guess what-- you wake up. You've got those bags under your eyes.
You need a quick fix. You can take a very cold shower to constrict all the blood vessels and depuff. And also, do two sets of jumping jacks for 30 seconds each.
That circulation is really going to help rev your body up and help drain away some of that extra fluid that collected there.
So those are my three tips for depuffing the bags under your eyes. [AUDIO LOGO]
