An Aspirin Mask! This easy little mask to make has been a great lifesaver for me and my blemish prone skin - plus it leaves my complexion more even and my skin really soft!

I just use 3 uncoated aspirins and mix them into a teaspoon of water and french clay and apply to my face for 15mins or so. I do this every night because I'm so acne prone but depending on your skin, I'd suggest a little less frequency.

Eye puffiness, a form of edema, is usually caused by fluid buildup. While some degree of puffiness may be normal for a given individual, factors such as age and fatigue may make the swelling more prominent. The periorbital tissues are most noticeably swollen immediately after waking, perhaps due to the gravitational redistribution of fluid in the horizontal position. Eye puffiness may also be caused by: * Mononucleosis - With supra-orbital oedema, the eyes become puffy and swollen. This may occur in the early stages of infection. ______________________ [url=http://hghzonecenter.com]human growth hormone[/url] [url=http://www.adv-res.com/] [url=http://www.adv-res.com]http://www.adv-res.com[/url] unconventional resources gas methane[/url]

I consider undergoing eyebag treatment, do you think it is worth it? or it will eventually give me the same puffiness after a month?

Puffy eyelids make you look tired and old. While they are usually temporary, they may last days or even weeks. If you are sick or puffy eyes result from irritation, you may find your eyes persistently take on a marshmallow like appearance. What can you do? First and foremost, don't fret! Let's look at the puffy eyes phenomena more in detail to figure out what we can to do help.

Puffy eyelids are a recurring problem for many. I like to use an old beauty formula used by my grandmother. This actually works for me. Place a used teabag over closed eyes for a few minutes take a break lay down and relax. Some of the puffiness usually leaves. This is a good cure for mild cases of puffiness.

Vishenda when you say eyebag treatment, do you mean surgery. My understanding is that it lasts longer than a facelift. But do your research! There are many who do plastic surgery and are not plastic surgeons!
