"Hi, I'm Kelli. I'm an aesthetician and makeup artist at Ulta Salon and Cosmetics, and I'm going to give you some tips on how you can remove bags under the eye. One thing that you can do, and it's very easy and very inexpensive, is to get a cucumber, slice it up, and just lay it on your eye for five to ten minutes, and the calming, soothing botanicals of the cucumber are going to help decongest that puffiness. Another thing that you can do is to get a really good eye cream, such as this one here, which has cucumber, chamomile, and caffeine in it, which are all really good decongestants for the eye. Take a little bit on your ring finger, you're going to start at the brow bone, and you're going to work your way around the eye in a clockwise motion about five to ten times, and this is a lymphatic drainage move, so this is just going to help decongest the area around the eye. So after you've gone around the eye a few times, you can hold this pressure point right here, and that'll help to drain any excess fluid around the eye that'll cause, that can cause puffiness. So those are some tips that you can use to get rid of bags around the eye."
