I look like I got punched in the eye.

And this is the second time in a month that my eye has swelled up three time the size it should be. Its gone down a little bit since last night, but its still very noticeable. This morning my coworker was like "What the happened to your eye?!" than he remembered a couple of weeks ago.
Does anyone else have this problem?

Right under my eye swells up, and its red. When the swelling goes down, its going to start peeling (i'm assuming, thats what it did last time).
Anyone know how to make the swelling go away?

Sounds like you are allergic to something. Try rubbing benedryl on it maybe and a cold rag.

It does sound like you are allergic to something have you changed makeup remover? Makeup? the shedding of skin is protection to rid of what ever it is that is affecting you.

Natural remedies potatoes or cucumber, sliced and placed over your eyes seems to tighten them and reduce swelling.

Drink more water at this time, so that the peeling hopefully is minimal.
