Brilio.net - Eye bags are a common condition that affects a person's appearance and self-confidence. Located under the eyes, eye bags are often seen as swelling or hollows that can appear due to various factors. Although usually harmless, the presence of eye bags can indicate a health or lifestyle problem that needs attention.
One of the main causes of eye bags is the buildup of fluid under the eyes, which can occur due to water retention. Factors such as excessive salt consumption, lack of sleep, or uncomfortable sleeping positions can cause fluid retention that leads to the appearance of eye bags.
Aging is also a factor in causing eye bags. As we age, the skin around the eyes becomes thinner and less elastic. As a result, the fat that normally supports the area around the eyes can move down and form bags. In addition, the muscles that support this area can also weaken, worsening the appearance of eye bags.

Ingredients and benefits of milk to deflate eye bags.
Milk can deflate eye bags thanks to its natural substances which are useful for reducing swelling and calming the skin. Not without reason, this drink contains lactic acid and calcium which have anti-inflammatory properties and can reduce irritation and inflammation around the eyes.
In addition, milk also contains vitamins A and D that can support skin health and improve its elasticity. When milk is applied to the eye area, this natural ingredient will help narrow dilated blood vessels, thereby reducing swelling.
