I start using Retin A 0.05% and did not have any significant irritation or redness at the beginning. But after some time I got severe swelling and irritation around my eye area. I bought Hydrocortisone 1% ointment to help the situation.Currently I'm using my Retin A again but there is no way I can go closer to my eye area , which is very sad for me,since I would like to improve my around eye area skin.I tried to mix the retin A cream with moisturize and then apply it but it did not help as well.
