Get on the Korean Beauty stuff. NOTHING has worked with my skin as well.

I lived in a city with awful water for a few years and it really destroyed my skin and hair. They still aren't quite "right" but K Beauty has set me WAYYY back closer to normal with my skin than I ever came before.

I recommend a moisturizing toner more than anything. That has singlehandedly made the most difference for me, personally.

Skin79 Skin Clearing Toner in Moist

Banila Co Clean it Zero Cleansing Balm

Klairs Midnight Blue Calming Cream

Also Neutrogena Hydroboost Gel Cream really worked because Hyaluronic Acid is the most effective moisturizer we have at this moment... Cured dry patches I had above my eye and they never came back.

I've tried many different eye creams (from drugstore to high-end brands) to no avail. Dehydration is not the issue because the rest of my face is normal.

Any suggestions? 😢
Are you sure you are not allergic to something?

That hadn't even occurred to me. I should look into this. Let's hope it's not caffeine. 😭

Origins Drink Up Intensive Overnight Mask to Quench Skin's Thirst 1.7 oz

I don’t use this stuff often but when I do it works amazingly well.

Transitioning between being hydrated and dehydrated for your skin can age it very quickly. When I was experiencing dry skin around my eyes and cheeks my dermatologist told me to stop wearing eye makeup, and face makeup....which basically left me with doing my brows and a nice lipstick and honestly I don’t mind it, it does look nice.

I had to give my eye skin the most time and take care of it tenderly. I use a clarins daytime and nighttime lotion as well as the clarins eye treatment thingy in the pink tube. Then I seal it all off with the origins overnight mask.

Whatever you do, don’t flake your skin off with your fingers.
I do like all the Origins products I've tried in the past. I'll give this one a go! They're giving away deluxe samples right now, lol.

May have to take your suggestion and refrain from using any face make-up for a while to see if that helps.

Vitamin E Oil. This is the brand I use and it's amazing, also smells SOOOOO GOOD!!

Could also use Rosehip Oil. I use this one from time to time..

I've been using this vitamin e ointment that my friend with eczema swears by, but so far it hasn't made any difference.

Oils don't seem to do much for my dryness. They don't penetrate and kind of just sit on top of my skin. 😢 So far, I've had better luck with creams and lotions.

Do you know if the Skin79 Toner contains any alcohol ingredients? The only thing that puts me off Korean skincare is that I don't know what the ingredients are. Also, they tend to contain a lot of fragrance.

I think it is probably not caffeine 😂 But think about it because allergies is the most probable cause.
