1. Grab the cucumbers

This is our top pick because it’s the fastest and most effective way to get rid of the puffiness under your eyes. Simply grab a cucumber that has been refrigerated and cut off 2 slices. Place them over your eyes and leave them there for about half an hour. Lie down and relax. Enjoy the comforting and refreshing feeling that the cucumber provides with its anti-inflammatory properties.

2. Sleep on your back

When you sleep on your stomach or on your side you can wake up with bags under the eyes. These positions encourage the collection of fluid beneath the eyes at night. If you find that your bags are worse in the morning and then start to go away during the day, you can be sure that your sleeping position is the cause of the problem. Try to gradually ease away from sleeping on your side or your stomach by sleeping on your back more often.

3. Pour the milk

To get rid of some of the water retention near your eyes, wet 2 cotton pads in cold milk and place them on your eyelids. Relax for 20 minutes with the cotton pads in place.

4. Sliced raw potatoes

You’ll see an extreme difference in the size of the bags under your eyes when you turn to a sliced raw potato. Put a potato in the refrigerator and once it is cold slice it in half. But these halves on your eyelids and leave them there for about 20 minutes. This is how to get rid of eye bags when you don’t have any milk or cucumbers in the house!

5. Skip the salt and reach for the water

Eating a lot of salt can cause water retention in the face and can actually lead to permanent bags. Reduce your salt intake and at the same time flush out the salt that your system is currently holding by drinking plenty of water. You should also cut down on your alcohol consumption since having a drink can also lead to water build up and swelling around the eyes.

6. Cool teabags

Moisten 2 teabags under cold water and then put them in the refrigerator for a few minutes. Place them on your eyelids and keep them there for approximately half an hour. Afterwards, wash your face and eyes using cold water and pat your face dry. Any type of tea bag can be used but some people have reported more success using herbal teas such as green or chamomile tea.

7. Be gentle with your face

Always treat your face extra gently when you’re cleaning it or putting on your makeup. The skin underneath your eyes is extremely thin and more fragile than other skin areas on your body. Be sure to wash off all the makeup before going to sleep at night and always pat your face dry. 

8. Use egg whites to lift and tighten

Beat a few egg whites until they are stiff and then use a brush to apply the mixture to the eye area. This will get rid of under eye circles by tightening the skin underneath the eyes. Leave the egg whites on the eye area for 20 minutes. You’ll feel the skin becoming tighter and tighter every minute. Rinse with cold water and enjoy your new look.

9. Use a concealer

When you have used any of the above methods but they haven’t reduced the eye bag color as much as you’d like, reach for a high-quality concealer. Some of these methods will reduce the swelling quickly but the blue tinged coloring may remain in the skin. Be sure to use a concealer only after you have reduced the swelling, however, since adding this type of makeup product to full-blown eye bags will only make them stand out more.

1. All hair types

You can never go wrong by reaching for an egg to help calm down your hair. Normal, dry and oily hair will respond to an egg white conditioner. For oily hair, use egg whites. For dry hair and oily hair, use the entire egg. Leave the egg on the hair for 20 minutes and then rinse it away with cool water. Shampoo your hair and then enjoy the new and exciting feel of your freshly conditioned hair.

2. Frizzy hair

Showers and sweating after a workout can make your hair go pouf and make it hard to style. In order to prevent frizzy hair, spray it with a dry shampoo all the way from the roots to the ends. This will absorb the water and keep it from damaging your hair.

3. Dry, dry hair

When you wash your hair too often, it gets dried out. If you’re already dealing with excessively dry hair, skip the shampooing during your next shower and use conditioner only. Implement this cycle of applying shampoo and conditioner one day, only conditioner the next, and then return to the shampoo and conditioner. Try using this cycle for a couple of weeks. It should completely handle any dry hair issues you have and stop them from reoccurring.

You can also massage plain yogurt or sour cream into the hair after a shower when your hair is still damp. Allow it to remain on your hair for 20 minutes and then rinse it with warm water and shampoo. This will give an instant boost to your hair and leave it shining and subtle.

4. Breaking hair

The common cause of breaking hair is being too rough with it. If you’re an on-the-go type of girl, you may be brushing your hair too quickly and roughly before heading out the door. Try taking extra time with your hair and treat it gently. Avoid putting your hair in ponytails or other hairdos that will only put extra stress on your hair.

Hair that is breaking is often caused by weather damage. Pollution, chlorine and the sun can cause split ends, dullness and fading. Fortunately, there is a quick cure that helps to seal in moisture. Honey can be massaged into the hair and then left on for 20 minutes. If you find it hard to apply the honey, feel free to mix together half a cup of honey with 2 tablespoons of olive oil. If your hair is extremely sun damaged, add some egg yolk or avocado to the mix as well to help replenish the protein bonds.

5. Limp hair

Beer! This is how to restore damaged hair that is limp and fine. Adding beer to your hair supplies a generous amount of yeast to it, which helps to plump it up. Use 1/2 cup of flat beer combined with a teaspoon of canola or sunflower oil and one raw egg. Apply the mixture to damp hair and allow it to sit for about 15 minutes. Rinse with cool water.

6. Residue damaged hair

Baking soda is the product to reach for when you have a buildup of residue on your hair. The baking soda will break down the acidic buildup fast. Put together a thick paste mixture that consists of 2 tablespoons of baking soda and water. Massage it into your hair when it’s damp and then allow it to remain on the hair for 15 minutes. Rinse and shampoo and then see for yourself how much softer your hair feels!

7. Oily hair

There’s nothing worse than that greased hair look! Fortunately, there’s a simple solution that you can use right now to reduce the amount of oil in your hair. Sprinkle cornstarch or cornmeal onto the scalp and dry hair. Allow the powder to sit there for approximately 10 minutes to absorb the oil. Brush out the powder and you’ll instantly notice a complete turnaround in your hair.
