Why do people keep asking if I had a late night?

I’m afraid our eyes usually give away the secret without us even saying a word. Most of us suffer from bags under eyes or eye puffiness. The main causes of bags under eyes tend to be the following:

Causes:
1:  Fluid retention: body fluids have settled under the eye area. Usually occurs overnight after a late night.
2: Late nights
3: Aging: Skin looses elasticity over time and this can lead to under eye bags
4: Allergy: You could have an allergy to certain products (RAST test can reveal that causes the under eye bags)
5: Diet: If you have a very unhealthy diet (excessive alcohol) that lacks essential vitamins then this too can cause enhanced under eye bags.

How to prevent bags under eyes:
1: Reduce salty food intake as scientists have seen a link to eye bags
2: Elevating your head (e.g. extra pillow) can prevent the fluid becoming trapped in the eye area
3: Get some good sleep!
4: Dont Stress!

How to reduce bags under eyes:
1: Splash cold water onto your eyes which will encourage circulation around your eye area. Follow this by gently tapping your eye area to further encourage circulation
2: Cold cucumber slices over the eye area for 10 minutes at a time

Only use eye care products to treat eye bags if you feel that you really really need them (naturally treating is always better long term)

These are not a one off fix for how to get rid of bags under eyes but must be consistently applied until the route of the problem is fixed.
