I have pretty good skin. I hardly get pimples or anything like that but I have noticed that when I use certain face cleansers like clean and clear exfoliating wash and morning cleansers it makes my face start to peal. I am currently using my daughters Aveeno baby wash for sensitive skin (she has slight eczema and its the only thing that seems to work) So anyway.... I am thinking that the Aveeno baby wash is probably not giving me the "cleanse" i should be getting. I also use my daughters Aveeno baby lotion or the Vaseline lotions and it seems like that has been something that has tamed my dry skin. I do wear a dept store moisturizer at night and during the day. I tried using Oil of Olay moisturizing cream but it made my face feel tight and dry.
I also tried using the oil of Olay toner but it only made my face itchy and tight. I want to make sure I am taking good care of my skin. I am 23 and I am starting to see fine lines under my eyes, on my forehead, and some crows feet. I also have horrible dark circles under my eyes that seem to work with any concealer. I do drink plenty of water (2-3 liters a day) and I wear SPF, sunglasses, and hat when I go out. I don't really wear much makeup either. Just some tinted moisturizer, bronzer, blush and mascara and eyeliner when I feel like I need the pzas. '
If you could give me some face wash, and eye cream suggestions I would really appreciate it. I know that retinol (which is vitamin a) is great for wrinkles but I am currently 4 months pregnant and well I'd rather stay away from retinol right now.
Hi, I am on a face program that I've had for about 4-5 months now. At first, my acne seemed to be clearing up, but now there's no difference. My face looks just as bad as it did before I started the treatment..if not worse. As a matter of fact, I did my face program that I bought from the dermatologist MADE special BY that particular dermatologist's office, and woke up this morning with yet ANOTHER "blemish". I just read this morning that you cannot use retinol, glycolic acid (aka AHA's), vitamin C, and benzoyl peroxide because it will cause inflammation to your face.
The routine that I bought from the dermatologist's office has an active ingredient of Salicylic acid 2% and inactive ingredient Glycolic acid 5%. I also have a every-night program to put retinol on my face. Is the mixture of Salicylic acid and Glycolic acid causing my face to break out? Also, is the retinol not doing any benefit, too?
Thank you for your help:)

I'm a 23yr old male and I've developed really bad dark circles around my eyes over the last year. Probably from stress and too much time in front of the computer. I've been looking around for some creams. I've noticed that it is recommended that they include retinol and vitamin K. I can't seem to find any good creams at local stores. What are some good creams for dark circles? Thanks.
