I just got my kit today along with obagi retinA 0.1
I was wondering if anyone used the system on their eyes. I don't mean eye cream I mean using everything on eyes clear blender exfoderm and retinA
I used skin biology cp and 10% lacsal for the past 2 months around my eyes and it looks bad now very soggy and old looking(maybe because it's renewing?). I think skin around my eyes can handle obagi since It didn't get too sensitive with skin biology products
How were your results?
how bad were the side effects?
if skin is too sensitive or tight can I use moisturiser around my eyes? or just emu oil?
will using anything make the process longer?I work from home so It's OK for me to look bad for few weeks
oh I'm using blendFX and clear FX so no HQ to worry about.
Thank you for your feedback |

Has, you can use the Nu Derm products around your eyes. If you want to treat the eyelid, you should start with using the Blender/Retin A just on the orbital bone until you get used to that and make sure you don't have any problems. Do not use the Exfoderm on your eyelids. Your eyes will look worse before they look better. |

do u use any oil or cream on your eyes to make them less dry? how good were your resluts?
Also does the blendfx and clear fx have expiration dates? mine came without one. I hope the company I bought from didn't send me some expired products |

I use an eye cream, and I wait 1 hour after applying Retin A before applying the eye cream. Right now I am using the TNS night eyes (I think that is the right name!). My results with Obagi were great. Still the best stuff I have ever used and the only thing that gave me results. I have never used the FX version, but I would say that since they don't have HQ in them, they probably wouldn't have an expiration date. |

rileygirl, how has the TNS eye cream worked for you or have you used it long enough to tell yet? |

I've used it about 1 month now, brierrose. My lines under my eyes seem to be very slightly diminished, but I think still too early to tell. I'll give it 3 months and see how the area looks then! |

Brierrose must've read my mind! I wanted to ask you the same question. I think another poster mentioned using the TNS eye repair a long with the MD Forte Eye cream. Are you using both of these products or just the TNS along with retin a?
Has, I also use the retin a under my eyes and even use a little residual on my eye lids. At first this caused my under eye area to look extremely red, dry, and crepey. My skin has acclimated to the products, but I don't think I've seen a great deal of improvement. But, I'm still hopeful!
ETA: Has, just saw that you are starting with 0.1% retin a -- which is quite strong. I started with 0.025% and then bumped up to 0.05%. |

I was alternating them every other day, kims, but the MD Forte burns under my eyes (can you believe this?? ) and now I am trying 2 nights of TNS, and then 1 night of MD Forte and alternating that way. |

Maybe if it burns, that means it's working! You know: No pain, no gain!!
Let me know how this works for you. Thanks! |
