Bp Making Eyelids Puffy

Hi all, i'm just 3 days in on The Regimen and my eye lids are relatively puffy. I make a point to avoid my eye area & wash my hands afterwards incase any is left on my fingers & I touch my eyes or something.

 

I assume it's the BP because a few months ago I used "Clean & Clear Continuous Control" which had 10% BP and my eyelids had the same reaction.

 

Since i'm just starting The Regimen i'm only using a pea sized amount and like I said before, I'm very concious to avoid my eye area.

 

My eyelids aren't super puffy, like I don't think anyone would notice if they looked at me, but I can see a difference. And I recognize the beginning stages of my eyelids getting puffier because it happened before with the Clean & Clear product.

 

Basically, has this happened to anyone else & how do I fix this?

 

I'd rather not stop using it, but obviously I will if the puffyness continues and/or gets worse.

Are there any products I can use on my eyes to make them not effected by the BP? Or make the puffyness go away (it lasts all day-not just til the BP is absorbed).

 

Thanks so much!

Happened to me too in the first 3 weeks of starting the regimen. My eyelids and sometimes under my eyes were puffy. Kept with it though and it settled down after a few weeks.

Your body is reacting negatively. Replace with jojoba oil and ask yourself why your body is reacting negatively in the first place. Ask questions.

I dont know if this helps but ill say it anyway. Maybe it will help you. :)

 

I can use cream cleansers with salicylic acid and i can use bp as my topical acne med. but i can not reverse this. Cleansers with bp cause my skin to become very irritated and salicylic acid topical gels do nothing to treat my acne. Doesnt make much sense i guess but its what i learned.

I have the same problem with almost every anti-acne product in use. My solution is double-moisturising with hyaluronic acid products.
