We've all turned into these busy bees who hardly have time for anything. Between the hassles of managing work and travel and chores at home, we've all driven ourselves to exhaustion. And as much as we try to eat healthily and follow a healthy lifestyle, exhaustion can still show on your face. One way in which it becomes evident is through puffy under eyes or dark circles. And this can make you look even more tired than you actually are. But just because you don't have the time to do something about it at home doesn't mean you can't squeeze in some time to help your skin out while you're at work. So, if you're one of those people who are looking for a quick remedy, here are some tips to get rid of puffy eyes while you're at work.

Did you know potatoes could help reduce puffiness around your eyes? Just cut a few slices and place two of them on your eyes. Since potatoes contain the Catecholase enzyme, they can help reduce water retention around your eyes and can get rid of those puffy eyes.

We're sure you have milk available at the office so why not try this trick. Dip a few cotton balls in chilled milk and then place these cotton balls on your eyes. Let them sit for a good 15-20 minutes and the puffiness around your eyes will be gone for good.

Eye drops can be used to help with anything from dryness to supplementing your natural tear production. Other varieties use vasoconstrictors to help with the redness you experience with crying or allergies. To avoid further irritation, try choosing preservative-free solutions that contain fewer additives.

This is something you can opt for while you're at your lunch break. Just take some coffee powder and mix it with a pinch of black pepper and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil. Apply this mixture under your eyes (be careful not to get any in your eyes because of the pepper) and leave it on for 10 minutes before wiping it off. While coffee has anti-inflammatory properties, pepper can enhance blood circulation so those puffy eyes should be gone in no time. Your colleagues are bound to be surprised about how you've returned looking all fresh post-lunch!

Anytime you feel like taking a 10-minute break while at work, just sit at your desk and opt for this trick. Take some cucumber slices (place them in the fridge to chill beforehand), apply them on your eyes and then just rest for 10 minutes. Not only will the cucumbers reduce puffiness but they'll also cool your eyes down.

Just place a couple of tea bags in the fridge when you get to work. When you feel like chilling for a bit, take these tea bags and place them on your eyes and then chill away! Tea can be really good at reducing puffiness and can even get rid of any swelling.

Place a few teaspoons in the fridge. Once chilled take them out and place them on your undereye areas. Leave them on for about 20 minutes. The cold metal helps in relaxing the blood vessels which can also help reduce puffy eyes.
