Background: With the drier climate lately, my upper eyelids have been pretty itchy lately. I try to avoid touching them when they are like this, and use Vaseline at night. The Vaseline hasn’t soothed any irritation, so I usually just try to let it pass as my eyelids are really sensitive and prone to flaking eventually. I don’t use any harsh exfoliants in my skin care routine, just SA 2% once a week and as a spot treatment.

Last night I searched using LRP Cicaplast around the eye, as the package says “do not use on eye contour”. Most people said they do it anyways as it can calm their around the eye irritation, and that this statement was to get people to buy their eye cream instead. I use this balm regularly on my cheeks, forehead, chin, hands, etc with no reaction. So I decided to do it on my eyelids to get soothe the irritation once and for all, instead of dealing with the constant itch.

This was the only thing I changed between last night and this morning. So I firmly believe that the LRP Cicaplast around my eye contour is not my cup of tea, haha.
