Hi,
I'm considering adding an oil to my skincare routine but am unsure as my skin is very reactive and sensitive. Does anyone else have a similar skin type and gets on ok with one?

I use L'oreal micellar eye make up remover gel, it's really fantastic and doesn't irritate my eyes, cheap in Boots atm,less than 2 quid.

Same colour bottle as their micellar water just half the sizeSmile

I always seem to have gritty eyes recently and since I have been using it I've had no problems. Hold the cotton wool pad to your eye for a bit before wiping.

I've just discovered Elena's natural collection - it's produced by a nurse who worked with skin conditions and is made specifically for people with eczema and psoriasis but having spoken to them by phone they say that 50% of their customers buy their products to use on sensitive skin. I've been using it for 2weeks nearly and notice a different to my dry sensitive skin
You can speak to Elena and she will advise you

No, I don't work for them :)

Oils didn't work for me and Liz Earle product irritate my skin

I'm pretty sure that eye right stuff is mainly witch hazel iirc, I remember googling the ingredients. Blephasol is nice stuff but a tenner in boots so again pricey and I'm not sure it's that different to normal micellar water.

And iirc eye bright is a bit iffy so there must be a minute amount actually in it. As you say, cheaper to mix your own!

Camomile tea is lovely to bathe irritated eyes.
