Post RetinA

I had a question about RetinA

How long before you see results? I have really bad dark circles under my eyes and wrinkles and I am only 30. I have been using it for a week. The skin seems to feel sore where I have been using it and a bit itchy.

I had used various Retin-A/AHA products for years with little results for my lines, until I came across Silkia camellia oil. It took away my forehead lines in 3 months. For the first time in 10 years I'm not ashamed to show my forehead (I used to wear a fringe to hide it). I think you might want to give it a shot also. Don't waste your time on Retin-A. You can find this Silkia camellia oil on the Internet by searching in Google.

Just to add one thing. Since you're going to use it for your eye area also, be sure to get the pure, filtered camellia oil. Many cheap camellia oils on the Internet are not filtered, have a lot of dark impurities/residuces and so are not suitable for your delicate eye area/face.

Joche,
Can you tell me exactly how you use the camllia oil? I just ordered some off the internet (the high quality stuff, I think)after reading what you said. I had never heard of it. Does it soak into your skin? How often do you put it on. It's certainly worth a try.
I never could use Retina A and renova didn't work. Thanks.

Lavender76,

I use it every morning and night after cleansing (I don't use any toner). I apply about 4 drops to my whole face, including the eye area and throat, then massage it for about 2 minutes (the longer the better, this is important.) This oil is very moisturizing, sinks right into your skin and makes it very soft. And it keeps your skin moisturized for a very long time.

You don't need to use any other moisturizer or eye cream. You can wear makeup and/or sunscreen over it.
