A reader recently commented on one of my posts saying that allergies are making her eyes red and itchy and causing excessive puffiness and eye wrinkles when she wakes up in the morning. She also said that eye wrinkle creams seem to be making the symptoms worse. If this is the case, take a good look at the ingredients list on these eye wrinkle creams. You may be having an allergic reaction to one or more of the ingredients. I would definitely suggest talking to your doctor to determine if the products are causing a reaction.
If your current eye wrinkle cream often irritates your eyes, stop using it immediately. You may want to consider a chemical-free product, such as the Juice Beauty line. These products are made of 95% certified organic ingredients without pesticides, parabens or other harmful toxins. Juice Beauty makes a great eye wrinkle cream called Juice Beauty Green Apple Nutrient Eye Cream.
It contains vitamin E and avocado oil to hydrate the eye area, green tea and cucumber oil to decrease puffy eyes, vitamin C to brighten and protect the skin, and vitamin A to stimulate cell regeneration and reduce eye wrinkles.
Another natural tip is to place cool green tea bags over your eyes. Place two tea bags in hot water, then remove the tea bags and let them cool. Once they are cool, prop your neck and shoulders up on a few pillows to allow gravity to reduce the fluid that has gathered under your eyes. Then place a tea bag on each eye lid and lie there for 5-10 minutes. This not only helps decrease eye puffiness, but it also helps sooth the eye area, making it a great homemade treatment for those with itchy allergy-prone eyes.
