Question about Aha

1) Is it ok to put below the eye area? the skin below the eye is the thinnest skin ever. Does it help to fade dark circle and eye wrinkle?

2) using AHA once or twice a day? i watch the video its only night time.

I wouldn't get it anywhere near the eye area, it is likely to sting and irritate.

A good way to introduce it is by using it once per day at night every 2-3 nights instead of the usual moisturizer. Give that a try and see how your skin likes it.

AHA is used for exfoliating the skin so you should avoid applying it under the eyes. The AHA will tighten your pores and reduce black heads but it will not remove the dark circles under your eyes. Dark circles are usually caused by lack of sleep or dehydration. To remedy this, I would suggest that you drink plenty of water, get adequate sleep and cold compress on the eye area. If all else fails, you could use a concealer.
