Preparation H has long been known for its cosmetic uses, particularly reduction of puffiness around the eyes, as well as its intended use. What isn’t as well known is that in 1995 Wyeth Consumer Care, concerned about legal liability for these extracurricular uses, reformulated Preparation H to eliminate the side benefits. So Preparation H is no longer useful for anything but topical application to the Straits of Magellan.
But original formula Preparation H is sold in Canada. So if you need to reduce water retention, heal scars more quickly, temporarily remove cellulite, and reduce puffiness, hie yourself to Canada and stock up.

Does it still have a “do not eat” warning label?
You all probably think I should be able to go to the medicine cabinet and see… but I don’t HAVE any so BOOYAH!

Is there ANYTHING that will reduce the puffiness around the eyes.? I read about all the things that different people say works, but I haven’t found anything yet. If I bought Preparation H in Canada and used it around the lower part of the eyes (for puffiness)would it be harmful to my eyes?

I have used preparation H around my eyes for 3 months and do not see any difference

Supposedly the Canadian stuff does the trick. It’s used by Hollywood makeup people and the like. Beyond that, I really can’t help you.
Good luck.
