Instructions

Difficulty: Easy

Things You’ll Need:

coffee
lots of liquids, especially water
whole milk
refreshing eye gel

Step1

Drink some coffee in the morning! The caffeine will help you flush the fluids that are causing your blowfish look.

Step2

Rehydrate! Drink lots of liquids, especially water. They will help you rehydrate and feel better again.

Step3

Fill a bowl with ice water and whole milk. Soak a washcloth in the filled bowl and hold it to your face for 3 minutes and repeat the action for another two times. The fat from the milk and the cold from ice water will calm irritation.

Step4

You’ll need a refreshing eye gel containing cucumber, vitamin K or coenzyme Q10 to erase the under eye bags. Don’t use an eye cream, use gel for its astringent effect. It will tighten your skin as it dries.

Step5

Use an eye concealer in a lighter tone than your skin. That will help reduce even more those annoying under eye bags.

Tips & Warnings

If you’re not lucky enough and your skin’s hangover is accompanied by a terrible headache, you might consider an effervescent aspirin and vitamin C. And don’t forget to drink water (this time).
Don’t drink and drive! Give your car keys to someone sober to drive you home or take a taxi.
