## Questions & Answers

**Q: Is this ok to put under eye area?**
A: Yes, you can use this under your eyes. It even supposed to help with fine wrinkles as it has a moisturizing effect and locks in moisture. Do try though first on a small patch to avoid irritation.

**Q: Can I use this for my under eye scars??**
A: I use once a week under my eyes as I have sensitive under eyes. I don’t know what type of scar you have. I have a scar on my neck (as I had thyroid surgery) and I use on it. But I would say once and see how you feel. Hope that helps.

**Q: At what point do you use this product in your routine, eg only once a week at night etc?**
A: Hi Becka, 
I've been using it every night last year between October and December. Bare in mind that my skin is used to acids. If you are just starting out I'd test it first to see how your skin is going to react. Then I would use it 3x a week at night. Remember about the sunscreen too. Hope that helped!

**Q: Will this help with hyperpigmentation/dark acne marks?**
A: Hi this helps remove your dead skin cells and should be used with other serums - but c helps growth & repair and will reduce discolouration but not eradicate it ( quite sure for the gold standard removal and renew its lazer treatment) .
