Why Are My Eyes Puffy Underneath?

Eyes are puffy underneath due to fluid retention, stress, poor sleep, or skincare neglect. Identifying the trigger—lifestyle, age, diet—can help match the right eye pads or mask for under eye bags. Targeted care based on your routine gives better, lasting results.

If you're wondering, "Why do I look tired even after 8 hours of sleep?"—you’re not alone. Puffy eyes are often a sign of:

Sleep habits: Irregular or poor sleep cycles can cause fluid to accumulate under your eyes.
Diet: High-salt diets or alcohol draw water to the eye area.
Stress: Cortisol spikes can trigger inflammation and puffiness.
Age: Thinning skin and weakened muscles allow fat or fluid to bulge.
Eye strain: Screen time increases inflammation around the orbital area.

💬 *“I’m doing everything right, but my eyes are still swollen every morning.”*

It’s not always about doing more—it’s about doing what fits your life. That’s where tailored solutions shine.
