Skin BiologyDear aliali:
It is very important to first use very mild/gentle products on the
sensitive area around the eyes.
Super CP and Exfol Serum may be much too strong for this area for you right now. Signs of overuse very often are dryness or "crepeyness".
We recommend first using
GHK-Copper Cream or
CP Night Eyes for an extended period first. And be careful with using exfoliators around this very thin skin area.
For right now though, the answer is to
rest the skin using only a light biological oil.
Please review our page on
Tips on How to Use Copper Peptides Properly which outlines why it is important to start with mild products.
Best Wishes,
