Hello, almost everyday I wake up with bags under my eyes, and usually I try to cover them with foundation, but it doesn't always work!:( can someone please give me some tips on how to get rid of the bags under my eyes!
U need to stimulate the blood flow around ur eyes massage eye cream twice a day and u will notice the difference if u don't use eye cream a moisturiser will do, don't do this with out cream to avoid dragging the skin
This is going to sound gross, but preparation H (hemorrhoid cream) reduces the swelling & puffing under your eyes, because that is what it’s made for! try it out, i swear it works :)

Don't neglect rest and drinking LOTS of fluids! Under eye bags are hereditary in my family (ha! See my profile pic!) but they have gotten a lot better over time.
For makeup coverup use primer than a liquid foundation before concealer. I set mine with loose powder.
Make sure you get enough sleep every night, aim for 8 hours per night, use warm compressors, drink lots of water daily (1 gallon), and stay away from stress :-)
I too have serious trouble with this! Part hereditary, part stress, part allergies. I have tried most conventional methods, but hat works best for me is chilling a firming eye cream and applying it gently about an hour before I do my makeup. When I do my make up I put an extra coat of foundation over my concealer as the last part.
Preparation H works by restricting the blood capillaries, so is a bad idea to use it!
You ideally want something cooling on the skin, like cucumber.
As mentioned above you wanna stimulate the blood and fluid flow by massage :)
I have awful under eye bags and I'm only fifteen. Its hereditary in my family but there are ways to reduce the puffiness. For while I used eye cream which can be expensive, it did work very well, but it eventually caused Milias which are small white cysts all around the eye which I can still not get rid of to this day.(I haven't used eye cream in half a year) I found what works for me the best is not to eat any salt 4 hours before I go to bed because, when you go to bed most of your salt (and other nasty things) collect under the eye area because of the skin under the eye is very thin. Another thing I do is in the morning is put something soothing and cold (ex. a cold wet paper towel)on my eye area which almost always reduces the puffiness. Hope this helped!
Mary Kay eye revitalizer is amazing I know many friends within the business that use it and I've seen total change and difference it's incredible and cheap

Your bags are just fluids but you can't get rid of them right away. Using a concealer will do the trick to cover them up.
