Tea For Your Eyes

If you suffer from bags under your eyes or puffy eyes, try using a couple of teabags. Swollen, red or puffy eyes are indicators of fatigue and tea for your eyes can bring almost immediate relief.

The restorative effect of black tea is so apparent that it will surprise you how quickly this simple process can reduce the effects of tired, puffy dark eyes.

 How to apply tea for your eyes

Place two tea bags into boiling water and brew for 5 minutes. Then remove the tea bags ringing out the liquid.

Next, place both tea bags into your kitchen’s freezer. You need to have them cool, but not frozen. Keep them in the freezer for 10-15 minutes, then take them out, lay down, relax and put the tea bags over the puffy areas of your eyes.

Leave them on your eyes for approximately 10-15 minutes, turning them over half way through.  Afterwards, remove the tea bags and throw them away.

Then rinse your face with cool water.  Make sure you rinse off any residue carefully with a cold damp tissue or face cloth.

In contrast, warm tea bags might be more relaxing on a cold winter day, and it has been found to reduce under eye puffiness just as well as the cold tea bags.

If you do drink tea often you can begin saving the tea bags from your tea pot while they are still warm – be careful that they are not too hot!    

Place a towel where your head will be resting to prevent leaking and staining. Lie down, place one black tea bag over each eye after closing your eyes first and relax for about five minutes.

Deep breathing will increase your oxygen intake while you rest and promote increased energy levels.

You'll be amazed at how much wider open your eyes will feel and how quickly soreness will be reduced.

You can buy special eye tea bags from your local pharmacy or beauty store, but really, any black tea bags work just as well and are certainly more economical.
