Help Understanding Undereye "Chicken Skin" Texture

[Oretta]

Hi Everyone,



I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions as to taking care of the under eye area or explanations for a "chicken skin" like texture (24 y/o female). I don't believe it's milia from what I've been reading.



Here's a picture with coverup (I have quite dark circles as well, I'll post a better one without makeup when able to). My skin is finally starting to clear up after years of acne and I'm trying to take good care of it but I've just been perplexed as to how to minimize the look of the bumpy texture under my eyes or what I may or may not be doing to enhance it.



Thanks so much for any help!

I used to have this problem or at least it looks like how mine were. For me it was a mild allergic reaction to certain products I was using. I have a sensitivity to fragrances.

Lots of other things can effect skin look and texture: genetics, dryness, stress, lack of hydration, poor diet, lack of sleep, hormones.
