Remedy for very puffy eyes :(

I've struggled with puffy eyes for the longest time and so always look tired. I've tried jade rollers, cold compress but not much changes. I do suffer with hayfever but honestly the puffiness is all year round and I do feel bothered about it because I don't look like how I feel in my photos and also, the puffiness creates shadows so makeup doesn't sit well under my eyes ( not that I am good at concealing anyway)
I look like I've had no sleep which is also not true and am running out of ideas

I admit I do sleep on my front and struggle to switch so if that is what needs to change please give me tips on switching to sleeping on my back. I don't have a particularly salty diet (I eat and have eaten a largely Mediterranean diet all my life ) - unless I have to actively reduce salt now that I am in my

Are there other things I can do?

Make a paste out of baking soda and water and apply to puffy areas, I didn't believe this would work when someone told me but it really does.

I'm the same, it's only since I started back on antihistamines for my hay-fever that I realised how puffy they were before. Sugar is definitely an issue for me. I sleep on my front too, didn't know it's an issue?
