I am ob my second night of green cream 3. I use it at night around my eyes and use hyalauric acid and emu oil in the day, once it dries I pat photolagen over it. My question is how do I exfoliate the skin around my eyes? I know that if you are using retinol you need to exfoliate but all I have at home is cellular rx aha and I think its too strong. Also, I try to shy away from aha because they make my broken caps look worse. How would mandelic acid work do you think? I have been reading up on it and it says its good for sensitive or rosacea but I just don't know if I should get it or not. I am sooooooo sick of getting products that do not work (and yes, I am saying that on the ones that I HAVE used over two weeks,  I think I almost gave them time to work)
Anyones input on this would be greatly appreciated, before my eyes start getting that crappy look to them? |

Hi
Why do you feel the need to exfoliate your eye area?
The Retinol is exfoliating already, i.e. it thins the dead surface layer of skin. Unless you're saying you're getting peeling. Is that what you mean?
P.S. I would have thought that the photolagen should go on before the emu/HA so that the actives in it can penetrate the skin - they won't so well through emu. |

No, I am not peeling. I just thought I was supposed to use an aha if I was using retinol.
And thats a good point about the photolagen. I'll do that instead. Thanks |
