Wave goodbye to your under-eye bags
Particularly as we age, the skin around the eyes begins to feel heavier and become looser. Perhaps you even feel that under-eye bags have become a permanent part of your appearance?
If that is the case, you should feel neither alone nor lost. With the right products, you can firm the area around your eyes and refresh your appearance. Here, we guide you through how to get rid of puffy, baggy eyes.
What are under-eye bags?
Under-eye bags refer to swelling, fluid buildup or loose skin that forms a bag under each eye.
Under-eye bags are a completely natural part of being an adult. You may recognise the feeling that gravity has pulled your face a little closer to the floor when you wake up in the morning.
Under-eye bags are rarely a physical discomfort, but for some people they can be a cosmetic concern that is difficult to change with makeup and can make them feel tired or lacking in energy.
Reduce your under-eye bags with eye cream
ECOOKING eye cream is your saviour for puffy or baggy eyes with dark circles. Glide the cool metal applicator over your eye area and soothe your eyes in minutes.
The eye cream contains natural extracts that refresh the skin by adding moisture and increasing the skin's microcirculation. The eye cream also increases the skin's collagen production, making the skin stronger and more elastic.
Why do I get under-eye bags?
Many people naturally develop under-eye bags as the skin on their face changes with age.
The skin around the eyes is thinner and more delicate than the rest of the face, and is therefore also more prone to fine lines, wrinkles, loose skin and swelling that can appear as under-eye bags.
You may also notice more prominent under-eye bags if you have had too little sleep, been stressed for a while, had an allergic reaction to something external, been sunburned or prone to crying. Here is an overview of what under-eye bags can be a sign of.
The most common causes of under-eye bags
-
Genetics and ageing: Some people are more predisposed to thin skin around the eyes and are therefore also more prone to under-eye bags. Over time, most people's facial skin becomes looser and loses its elasticity, and the skin around the eyes can appear as bags.

- Lifestyle and sleep: Factors such as lack of sleep, stress, alcohol consumption and smoking can also contribute to under-eye bags. The skin around the eyes can become loose and swollen as a result of poor blood circulation, dehydration and hormonal changes.
- Lack of moisture and fluids: When skin lacks moisture, it loses its elasticity and ability to expand and contract. If the skin around the eyes is dehydrated, over time it will have difficulty reducing swelling. In this way, bags can be a sign of both a lack of moisture in your skincare and insufficient water intake.
- Exposure to sun and wind: If your eye area becomes sunburned or is exposed to harsh wind, heat or cold, the skin's barrier can weaken. This can damage the skin and make it looser and baggier around the eyes, cheeks and mouth.

How do I reduce my under-eye bags?
Although under-eye bags are a natural part of the face for many people, you can still do your part to keep them as small and invisible as possible.
With the right techniques, routines and products, you can wave goodbye to your under-eye bags without compromising your skin's health. With moisturising, cooling and firming skincare products, you can breathe new youthful glow into your tired skin.
The best products for under-eye bags
1. Firming eye cream
Eye cream is developed specifically for the eye area and can both prevent and reduce skin concerns around the eyes.
Our Energizing Eye Cream contains active ingredients such as vitamin B3 and niacinamide, which firm and smooth the skin around the eyes to reduce puffiness, bags and dark circles. The eye cream deeply moisturises the skin by boosting its natural hyaluronic acid and gives skin cells renewed energy and glow.
2. Moisturising serum
A serum contains active ingredients that can help your skin address very specific concerns - such as loose skin, dehydrated skin and under-eye bags.
Our Hyaluron Serum improves the skin's elasticity in a short time, smoothing fine lines and unevenness. Use the serum all over your face to give dehydrated and loose skin intensive moisture. This restores elasticity to the skin across your entire face.
3. Sun stick with SPF 50
The skin around your eyes is often forgotten when sunscreen is applied to the face and body, but your eye area is actually particularly sensitive to UV radiation and heat.
Our sun stick with SPF 50 softens and cares for skin while protecting the most exposed areas of the body, such as the eyes, lips, moles and scars, from UVA and UVB rays. The sun stick is easy to apply, protecting your eye area and helping it retain moisture. This keeps bags and wrinkles at bay.
4. Gentle makeup and eye makeup remover
To take the best care of the delicate skin around your eyes, it needs protection from external influences, including wind and weather, as well as physical irritation from makeup and touch.
Remember to care for your eye area every day by using gentle eye makeup and eye makeup remover. This lets the skin around your eyes breathe throughout the day and keeps it hydrated. At the same time, you protect your skin from irritation by using mild products to both apply and remove your makeup.
