Oakland, FL -- (SBWire) -- 02/10/2014 --Retinol is a popular anti aging ingredient used in both over-the-counter skin products as well as preparations available by prescription only. A potent derivative of the antioxidant vitamin A, this potent age-fighter provides important collagen protecting and boosting benefits to aging skin.
Upon examining many of the retinol eye gel reviews published online, it's clear that some users find the ingredient to be especially harsh and irritating when used on delicate under-eye skin. Yet experiences vary and there are plenty of doctors who say this vitamin A derivative is perfectly safe for use under the eyes.
Proper dosage and usage are critical for good results. Assuming an individual does not have overly sensitive skin and uses the correct formula as recommended by her dermatologist, results can be quite impressive.
Before deciding to use an eye gel or serum containing retinol, consumers should be aware of the possible side effects as follows:
1. Using this vitamin A-based ingredient can interfere with certain professional skin treatments such as waxing, chemical peels and microdermabrasion. Only one or the other should be used at any given time.
2. Sun exposure impairs benefits while increasing skin sensitivity. As a result, this treatment is only suitable for use at night.
3. Redness, itching and dryness are common. Because the skin around the eyes is thinner and more delicate compared to the rest of the face, other options may be better for certain individuals.
