Dark puffy eyes

Im 42.
My eyes have always had dark circles under them but recently, they are puffing up too when I smile.
I'm not into cosmetic surgery bit does anyone have any good tips for concealing this or de bagging underneath?

Pics attached.
Thank you!

I heard somewhere this could be liver or kidney related
Do you drink plenty of water x

The person I go to for massages said to put ice on them in the mornings and Recommended these https://www.boots.com/botanics-ice-rollers-10319014?srsltid=AfmBOopHccEQwbU2hzGCxmu72TB4v5F6jLwUVSg0ah7EyE5KxNBBBsds

She said doing a lymphatic type massage under the eyes with the ice really helps with dark circles and puffiness. I've been doing it for the last week and it has definitely helped a bit, but no idea if I am doing it right as have just been using ice rather than these, intending to pick some up :)

@annlee3817 these look really good, I think I might give them a go, thank you!

@Merseymum1980 Thats a really good point. I do drink plenty of water but also a fair bit of pepsi max so that may have something to do with it. I gave up when I was pregnant so I'm going to cut back and see if it makes a difference.
