| | | | | I don't have super visible bags under my eyes, but up close, I can definitely see the darker skin tones. Most rejuvenating eye products I've seen cost at least $30, so I'm very into trying at-home remedies. | | These kinds of "natural" methods might not be as effective as a science-backed serum — or just getting consistent, high quality sleep — but I'm still going to give them a shot. If anything, they're a nice spa-like treatment I can do multiple times a week. Doesn't that sound lovely? | | | | | | | Wakey-wakey,

| |  | | | Jeepers, peepers | | Staring at screens for hours, a lack of sleep, or even allergies can leave the skin around your eyes looking swollen, discolored, and dry. If you've noticed tired-looking eyes, you're not alone. | | Before you shell out a hefty chunk of change on creams and oils, consider trying one of these remedies to make your eyes look a *little* less fatigued. While they aren't long-term solutions, they could make a slight difference at the moment. Plus, they're much more affordable than what you'd find at Sephora. | | Reach for your tea bag stash | The caffeine in black or green tea may help narrow blood vessels and reduce blue coloring. - Steep two tea bags in a mug of boiled water for 2 to 4 minutes.
- Remove the tea bags, and press out the excess water.
- Let the tea bags cool at room temperature or chill in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
- Rest the bags over your closed eyes for 15 minutes.
| | Freeze brewed coffee | In addition to the possible effects of applying caffeine to the eye area, putting ice on your skin may reduce puffiness. - Freeze brewed coffee in an ice cube tray.
- Once frozen, gently rub an ice cube on your skin for a few minutes — whatever feels nice to you.
- Target the areas under your eyes, along your brows, across the bridge of your nose, and from the outer corners of your eyes to your temples.
| | Give your eyes a tap massage | Tapping in a gentle circle around your sockets and across your brows and cheekbones may encourage lymph drainage and reduce inflammation by bringing blood to the area. - Use your index and middle fingers to tap around your eyes (no tugging or dragging).
- Go outward along your eyebrows, then inward along the top of your cheekbones toward the bridge of your nose. Circle your eyes three times.
- With your middle fingers, press firmly upward at the pressure points just under the brow bone on either side of your nose where your brows should start.
- Press firmly inward toward your nose, above the bridge, next to your tear ducts.
- Massage your temples with your index and middle fingers to finish.
| | If you want to experiment with skin care products, go for it! You'll want to look for ingredients such as retinol, niacinamide, and hyaluronic acid. Ultimately, working with a dermatologist is the best way to identify treatments that suit your unique situation and skin type. | | | | | | | | | | At-home test | | | | Sponsored by | | | | | | | |  | | Labcorp OnDemand ColoFIT Home Collection Test | | About 90% of colon cancer deaths are preventable with early detection. Labcorp's OnDemand test allows you to test for colon cancer from the comfort of your home if you're at average risk for it and aren't showing symptoms.
