Lancome Energie de Vie the Illuminating & Cooling Anti-Fatigue Eye Gel, $39
Best for: Massaging away bags

The fastest way to get rid of eye bags is a light massage, which helps drain the fluid that accumulates in the under-eye area. This soothing gel is equipped with a metal rollerball applicator to cool on contact and gently stimulate the inflamed skin. Spend a minute or two rubbing in the product -- it contains caffeine and antioxidant-rich cranberry, lemon balm and ginseng -- and watch puffy eyes disappear before your ... well, you get it.

Korres Greek Yoghurt Under Eye Priming Moisturiser, $36
Best for: Flawless makeup prep

It's all about priming moisturizers right now, and with Korres' cooling under-eye cream, you can treat puffiness and bags under eyes while locking makeup in place. We love massaging in this probiotic-rich cream, packed with Greek yogurt and myrtle and rhodiola rosea extracts, with the cooling ceramic applicator. Apply makeup while the cream is setting to make concealer and foundation go the extra mile.

Dr. Jart+ Water Fuse Hydro Soothe Eye Gel, $42
Best for: Hot, sweaty days

We get that this eye gel's translucent aqua color -- like a Mediterranean sea, or a soaking pool at a fancy resort -- has nothing to do with how well it fights puffy eyes. But applying this nearly weightless, refreshing, mineral- and arnica-infused gel on a balmy day feels like dabbing on magical spa water, which is only enhanced by the calming blue hue.

Belif First Aid 360 Eye Care Mask, $36
Best for: Overnight pampering

This mask is totally fun to apply, with a bouncy, Jell-O-like formula that twitches at the touch. Although you can certainly wear it as an eye cream during the day, it's basically a sleeping mask expressly for the eye area. We like to apply a generous layer at night to give parched, puffy eyes a huge drink of water and anti-inflammatory ingredients, namely mimosa herb extract and napiers.

Nerium Eye-V Moisture Boost Hydrogel Patches, $55
Best for: Next-level mask selfies

If you've ever treated puffy eyelids with cold spoons, tea bags, and so on -- hoping whatever kitchen tools at your disposal were the key to getting rid of eye bags -- stop. Just ... stop. Instead, slap on these translucent, futuristic-looking patches. They look and feel crazy cool, and calm bags under eyes with patented botanical and antioxidant ingredients, aloe vera leaf water, echinacea extract and lavender.
