Say Goodbye to Puffy Eyes: The DIY Coffee and Egg White Hack That Works

The global cosmetics industry generates billions of dollars every year, with countless people investing in creams and serums to reduce wrinkles and fade dark spots. For many men and women, the biggest cosmetic concern isn’t crow’s feet or pigmentation, but the under-eye bags that make you look tired, even when you’re not.

Eye creams can cost anywhere from $25 to several hundred, depending on the brand and active ingredients. However, there's a simple, affordable home remedy that can help reduce puffiness under the eyes, and all you need are two ingredients you probably already have in your kitchen.

What You’ll Need:

• 1 egg white
  The not-so-tasty part of the egg is actually a skincare powerhouse. Egg whites help reduce skin inflammation, improve circulation, and tighten the skin making them perfect for de-puffing tired eyes.

• 2 teaspoons of ground coffee
  Love your morning coffee? Your skin might, too. Caffeine is rich in antioxidants, can protect skin cells from UV damage, reduce fine lines, and firm up the under-eye area.

How to Make and Use It:

1. Mix the egg white and coffee grounds in a small bowl for about 1 minute until combined.

2. Apply gently under your eyes using clean fingers or a makeup brush. Avoid the eyelids and keep a safe distance from the eyes themselves.

3. Wait 10 minutes. You might feel a tingling sensation — this is due to increased blood flow to the area.

4. Remove the mixture carefully using a warm, damp towel.

5. Optional: Apply a small amount of coconut oil afterward for added hydration and glow.

Use This Mask Twice a Week

With consistent use, you may begin to notice tighter, smoother skin under your eyes, without spending a fortune. It’s a natural, easy alternative that fits right into your weekly routine.
