Puffy Eyes Or Dark Under Eye Circles? A Natural Remedy That Works! - By: Tommy Engan, Posted on: 2007-12-15

Did you know that we have a lot more in common with camels than you thought? Humans share a survival trait with camels that is great news for camels, because it keeps them alive. For us, however – not so great news, as it causes puffy eyes and dark under eye circles. Try all you might to get rid of your puffy eyes and dark under eye circles, but until you learn and apply this secret, you are spinning your wheels.

Are you ready for the secret? OK - the one trait humans share with camels is…water retention! You see, when your body doesn’t get proper hydration, it works like a camel’s hump; storing water for the long trip across the desert plains. But instead of a camel's hump, you'll develop water reserves around your eyes, which translates into puffy eyes and dark under eye circles.

In addition to storing water, toxins also form under the eyes if you don’t drink enough water (that's why most people look puffy eyed the day after drinking heavy, as alcohol dehydrates). In time, without regular hydration, your eyes start to get that dreaded old look.

The solution couldn’t be simpler: Keep yourself hydrated – drink water! When you do, your body doesn’t go into survival mode and won't puff up/darken under your eyes. To start seeing a significant reduction of these symptoms, drink 8 or more ten-ounce glasses of water every day.

Sounds easy, doesn’t it? …almost too good to be true; drink water and lose your puffy eyes and dark under eye circles – but it isn’t. The problem is this: most folks aren’t disciplined enough to do this, so they never enjoy the great benefits it offers. They’re usually off to a great start, but in time, their dehydrating habits return, along with their puffy eyes and dark under eye circles.

A wonderful solution is to use the rubber band reminder. Get a pack of rubber bands and a 20-ounce standard size water bottle at any market. Every time you finish a bottle, wrap a rubber band around the empty bottle. Next, fill it up again and repeat the process until your bottle has four rubber bands on it. That way, you’ll know that you have consumed exactly 8 ten-ounce glasses of water that day. Do this for 30 days straight and you’ll find yourself addicted to doing it, as in addition to the cosmetic benefits it offers, your overall health will start improving.

Any drawbacks? One - the bathroom will see a lot more of you:-).

Any other benefits? You bet! Because the person looking back at you in that bathroom mirror will be grinning wider and wider, as your puffy eyes and dark under eye circles start fading over the weeks.
