Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 I know to get rid of the " baggy " you can use a small amount of Preparation H. Yes, I know what it's really " for " , but it gets the job done. Just pat a small amount on the baggy area...being very careful not to get into your eyes.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 " I was thinking a blend of rosehip and carrot with rose and geranium. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. " I would suggest adding some cistus (rock rose) and helicrysum to that mixture.. Blessings, Doreen Get more from the Web.

Guest guest Posted February 3, 2004 Report Share Posted February 3, 2004 Cheryl, It usually works within just a few mins. Maybe 10 to 15 mins at the most to see the full decrease that you will experience. It is NOT a lasting effect. But....for when you get up with luggage under the eyes, it's better to carry around only a carry on bag the rest of the day! LOL If it's mild to moderate baggies.....it should pretty well get rid of them, for the course of the day. If the bags come back.....you can apply a small amount more during the day. I wouldn't use this everyday.....JMHO....as it might not be a very good idea. But for an " emergency " case....I would most certainly use it! I used it just the other day, as a matter of fact. Those gel masks that you can keep in the fridge for the sinuses will also help reduce the bags, especially if the bags are due to a mild case of edema, or if the sinuses are a bit clogged. I told my sister about it....and she was really unsure about it....but she finally tried it...and it worked for her. I had read that models use this method all the time....somewhere...don't remember, and then someone on this list...or another list, reminded me of it a while back.

Guest guest Posted July 20, 2008 Report Share Posted July 20, 2008 Hi all, Can anyone recommend a treatment or preventative for black circles and bags under the eyes? My sleeping habits can't get any better, but I believe that as I get older, the bags and black rings will just get worse. I'm skeptical about buying into commercial creams, and was wondering what the group had to say. Thank you, Roni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted July 21, 2008 Report Share Posted July 21, 2008 I have been told black bags under the eyes indicates a deficiency of vitamin A. You may try a supplement.

Guest guest Posted July 22, 2008 Report Share Posted July 22, 2008 Please, do not eat too much carbohydrate before sleeping. Do water spray massage to your face during moorning and night shower Day after day you will get better appearance.
