Plano, TX

I’m at my wits end, for months and months now, I’ve had puffy (almost blue/purple) bags under my eyes.
I used to think it was because of my sleeping being pretty poor.
But they just won’t go, and I can feel that I have bags under my eyes.
It’s making me look haggered old and hurting my self confidence.
Anyone else have this issue?
😥

My eyelids get puffy. I get what you mean though. I have always gotten compliments about how young i look for my age but lately i see a little old lady in the mirror lol. My confidence has dropped significantly

I don't have really puffy eyes, but the bags underneath them used to be more noticable until I started using rosehip oil. They're a little more smoothed out now and less dark underneath.

@A MyLupusTeam Member.. yes, I have been avoiding all make up lately. And just wear it now and then. Or if I need to try make myself feel pretty. Haha.
I am going to try the cold pack on the eyes,
I also remember my mum when I was a kid using cucumber slices and cold tea bags.
Honestly I am willing to give them all a go.

@A MyLupusTeam Member it would be the same for me also. I never looked my aged. My eldest son looks older than I do.
But like you, as of late, I have aged. I have no issue growing old. But feels like it all came on over night haha.
