    I’ve never even thought of using cold potato but what a cheap eye mask. I will definately be trying this in the future. Thanx for the tip.

    i also have put my creams in the fridge for the cooling effect.

    And i ACTUALLY HAVE just 2x tried a potato – but i think it would work best if its left as dry as possible and cold. 1st time i soaked it, and then applied it from the cold water.
    its better when its cold, cut up just b4 using, then its able to reduce puffy feeling since it somehow absorbs better , because it can take in more moisture

    I also put my moisturiser in the fridge, love the feeling!!
    Or I put it in the freezer to save waiting time

    I just keep my eye creams in the fridge works wonders 🙂

    Love that idea – will give it a try. I keep facial mists and some body lotions in the fridge for when I need a cool hit particularly in the humid weather. x

    It works like a charm on puffiness and gives tired eyes a cool refreshing boost, love it 🙂

    Cucumbers, teabags I have tried. Potatoes I haven’t tried but imagine they might work. They do work as an old fashioned remedy for bad headaches (that one i have tried!) Be interesting to see if it works for you Jessessential.

    I thought this was what cucumbers were for…? Potato, eh? Never heard of doing that :]
    I might try it though..

    Would cutting it thinly be good?
    But then it loses heat to quickly..
