So, I have been using topical steroids (1%) for skin under my eyes for a week, stopped now. I wanted to use concealer on it, but noticed it would cause flakiness or skin cells to come off, get stuck to my skin and caught up in the concealer. Now, I have stopped the concealer, stopped the creams and been putting coconut oil and moisturizer on that part of my face, for the last 2 or 3 days.
Now, my question is... when i run my finger over it, I noticed that the skin feels ever so slightly more raised, rougher and dryer, oppose to the other side under my other eye where its softer, smoother etc. 


Can someone enlighten me as to what this may be? Is it psoriasis coming back (despite no burning or itching sensation). Is this how the skin heals? is it just dry left over skin because it's thinner? Will it return to it's normal smoothness so I can apply concealer again? 

I have also been using the steroid cream above my eyelid too, as I have problems there and I did the same test... not quite the same, but did notice it was a little rougher and dry in comparison. So perhaps it's normal?

Not being able to hide my dark circles causes huge grief.

Difficult to answer. It would be best to check with your dermatologist

As for concealer, this thread may help Skin Camouflage
