While men’s skincare and grooming products are usually quick and effective fixes, if you are in
really bad shape, these other few methods should work even better:
Desperation Tip #1:
Grab two ice cubes (or cold spoons) and hold them over your eyes for about five minutes. Is it
odd? Yes. Does it work? Yes. The cold will immediately reduce puffiness and your eyes; just don’t
press hard or you could induce “ice burn” on your skin. The skin around the eyes is the most
delicate on the body.
Desperation Tip #2:
To further stimulate blood flow and bring life back into your face: Find caffeinated tea bags (black
or green prefer ably), soak them in warm water for two minutes, and then put them over your
eyes. The caffeine will help circulate blood around your eyes, reducing puffiness and making them
look more alert.
Desperation Tip #3:
When all else fails, drink a quick cup of tea (or coffee) to wake you up. Keep in mind, caffeine is
hard on the digestive system, so if you’re hung over and think you might not be able to keep it
down, it’s best to avoid caffeine altogether or at minimum, drink with a little food as mentioned in
step four.
