Used retinol at night for 3 days in a row. Result: under eyes red, feels totally stretched and unable to move the area (can't talk comfortably). Stopped using 2 daysago. Actual eyes are ok. Severe wrinkles now there- not there before. Will this last? How long will the stretched out feel/ redness last? When I move the eye to talk the skin sticks together like deep wrinkle lines. Quite scared!
