Chloe swears by Garnier Caffeine Anti dark Circles 2-in-1 Eye Roll-on and says she loves to apply a lot and let it dry in: “It’s also got caffeine and lemon extract, so it’s really nice and soothing when you feel tired in the morning. I put quite a lot on and just leave it for a while, then when it starts to dry, I pat it in. It makes me look more awake without having to put loads of make-up on!”

Lauren uses potato slices to cool her eye area: “To reduce puffiness, slice up a few refrigerated potatoes, soak them in water for a moment or two and then place them over your lids for 15 minutes. Works like a charm.”
Michelle applies special eye masks to reduce puffiness: “I wear these I eye pads from Koh Gen Do. They’re these little eye masks that make you feel like a super hero—but they really take down any puffiness.”
