6 simple tricks to instantly reduce puffiness in your face
Have you ever woken up with a puffy, swollen face? Sometimes it's due to salty foods; other times, it could be a drink (or two), or maybe just a lack of sleep the night before. No matter the reason, here are six quick ways to reduce facial puffiness in no time.
1. Ice, Ice, Baby
The simplest solution is already in your home: cold water. Whether you're taking a cold bath, washing your face with cold water, or massaging your face with ice cubes, cold can do wonders for a puffy face. Cooler temperatures will not only wake you up, but they'll also help close pores, eliminate toxins, and drastically reduce inflammation.
Bonus : The Kubi is for you! It's a silicone mold for performing ice therapy on your face. This way, you always have it handy and won't freeze your fingers while you rub it on your face. 🤩 See more details here .
2. Hydration, hydration, hydration!
While we're on the subject of water, don't forget that drinking water and staying hydrated is just as important, if not more so, to prevent and reduce facial puffiness.
3. Coffee shot
And we're not talking about your favorite Starbucks drink, but rather the products that will save your day. If you have puffy eyes, try a caffeine-infused eye cream or patches. Just like your morning coffee, think of caffeine as a quick pick-me-up for your skin.
We recommend:
- Eye Contour Gel: β Gel - B Gel for Eye Contour Betaglucans-Coffee
- Eye contour: Eysilix II
4. Roll it!
Try a facial massage with a facial roller or gua sha to stimulate both your skin and lymph nodes. This will help increase blood circulation, resulting in a reduction of puffiness and inflammation.
Pro-tip : Refrigerate your facial tools to maximize the benefits.
We recommend using:
Thermal facial massagers available in two colors: white and pink.
Roller + Gua Sha kit available
5. A little nap!
If you want something a little less manual but just as effective, you can opt for face masks that will help you relax while revitalizing your skin around the eyes. You can use them in the morning before your makeup routine, or also at night before bed, to relax your eyelids and reduce puffiness around the eyes.

6. Masks are your best friends
The right mask can be the at-home equivalent of a spa treatment. The trick is finding one that has the key ingredients to combat puffiness and inflammation. Anything with magnesium, 24k gold, or cooling effects can revive your face with a firmer, smoother appearance in just a few minutes.
