Hi, I've never had dry skin on my face before and within the past couple of weeks I've noticed I have a patch of dry skin under and around my eyes. I have stopped wearing makeup, but I have no idea what has caused this. It seems to be getting worse. I've always moisturised twice a day and have a good skin regime. I use body shop products only because of sensitivity. Does anyone have an idea on how I can get rid of it fast?

Have you been using the moisturiser on your eyes? that could be the cause. facial moisturiser is too harsh for the eye area. use a eye cream. if its not that then I'm not too sure :(

Use a serum! I love BOA (botanics if Australia) it has grape extracts and it's sooo moisturizing.

I also have sensitive skin and this doesn't irritate me at all.

Use a good eye cream...Clinique has one for sensitive skin...Alternatively you can also apply coconut oil at night its very moisturizing...Use a mild ph balanced cleanser...Skin around the eyes is very thin and has less oil glands so do not scrub or exfoliate much!!

Use Argan oil on the area. I had the same condition all winter. Argan oil is a natural, noncomedogenic oil that hydrates really deeply. Just tap it into the area and wait a couple of minutes before putting on a regular eye cream.

I have the same problem! In some cases, dry skin around the eyes or face can be caused by stress. I really recommend Mario Badescu's Control Cream, I just recently bought this and it has worked wonders around my eyes. I've only used it twice so far and it's cleared up all the dryness. Really worth checking out :)
