Advice on puffy eyes after using retinoids, acids etc
Hi all, I am almost 59 with pretty good skin. Over the last few eyes however I get puffy eyes especially in the mornings after using retinoids, or a BHA, or vit C serum. I have tried using an antihistamine at night and also putting paw paw ointment around my eyes as a barrier (this helps a bit, but not always). I am actually considering stripping right back to only my Paula’s choice moisturiser which causes no issues. Photos are to provide an eg of best and worst days. Worst is this morning which is what prompted this post
