Thank you so much for your content and the constant new information you bring. I have facial and ocular rosacea and have followed the medical literature sporadically regarding findings related to ocular rosacea and there was an article recently in the ophthalmology literature about topical retinoid products that were used on the upper and lower eyelid causing/exacerbating "dry eye syndrome" and cautioning people who had dry eyes to avoid using retinoid preparations on their upper and lower eyelids. I had been using my retinoids on both because my skin tolerated it but after reading that article I have discontinued doing so. It also mentioned that Accutane (oral "Retin A") also causes marked dry lips and dry eyes for many users. Catherine

Oh yes! If you already use Trulology retinaldehyde you are good!! I would just watch for irritation since that vitamin A is pretty potent looking. If you’ve taken it up under the eyes with no issue then this should only be additive 💙💙

Thank you Penn! I’m wondering if you can suggest a luxury skin corrector to use while treating broken capillaries on cheeks. I’ve tried so many things, but nothing covers it. Really appreciate your help.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Have you looked in to Sente Cysteamine? It takes a little time but it definitely works. Also, Biologique Recherche P50 1970v is a fave luxury product too. 💙💙

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Ahhhhhh just re-read.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Couple to look in to: Dr Jart tiger grass (green to beige) Rosalique corrector (if you’re medium or darker- it’s very green but really works!) Erborian also has a red corrector that will cover mild redness. 💙

[@lisaw8]

Thanks Penn. Just ordered the P50v1970. Would it work faster to use both? My skin is same shade as yours, but the broken capillaries are so bad my skin looks purple on my cheeks. @@PENNSMITHSKINCARE

Is vitamin K ok to use with copper peptides, as well?

[@lilijan97]

hi love! what do u think of Aroma Natural vitamin K creme?

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I’ll look it up! 🩷

[@amberglittergoddess5222]

Do you do red light therapy nightly? Do you do that before this or after this and also, which is your favorite mask or light at the moment? Thank you.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Ok I do red light daily now but it’s not necessarily at night. It’s when ever I can fit it in (typically either morning or before bed but not middle of the day bc I have SPF on etc). I really love the mask from HigherDose- the fit is so good, the specs are right and the price is reasonable. 😁💙

[@mariapitsones2135]

What would be a great under eye retinol? Please help

[@user-ob5nv7uq8o]

You metioned topical vitanin A, as well ,but I don't see a reccamondation of one below, I'm a bit confused !

[@JamesBond-lq2wt]

Typically the Naturium Vitamin K serum isn't available in the UK. I have been using Pharmaceris N Capinon K 1% Vitamin K Cream for several years.

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

What a bummer. Can you get Dr Ceuracle? It’s a Korean brand. I was just recommended their vitamin K ampoule and I ordered it. It does have fragrance but otherwise looks really nice. I know they sell it on stylvana if you’re able to order from there and wanted to try another vitamin K option 💙💙

[@JamesBond-lq2wt]

Indeed. I have ordered two bottles from Stylevanna. I also have Capillary Clear. It never really did anything previously but I will layer it with 0.05 Retinal. Another great video. Thanks.

[@tammyvo8880]

Hi Penny, where do you get your top?

[@joannparr9391]

My night routine is copper peptides, dna recovery serum, then AnteAge followed by Tretinoin. Where would I use vitamin k?

[@vinnysalerno9226]

Would Theramid lino-8 with 1% Vit K, be a good replacement for Naturiun since they discontinued their product? Or the Transparent Labs DE-BLOAT SOOTHING EYE SERUM says it has 5% K1.

[@mspader8]

Hi Penny, thanks for this new tip! I take a Vit. K supplement daily, I wonder if one should double the dose, when doing procedures? On another note, can I microneedle Niacinamide under my eyes, or the rest of my areas: face, neck, decollete, back of hands, etc?

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

So with vitamin K internally that’s a convo with a doctor (in my opinion) because it’s so personal and can affect our blood etc

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Yes on needling niacinamide as long as it’s .3mm or more shallow 💙💙

[@kathryngabel2007]

Hi Penn., I'm a Drmtlgy addict. I just received my HPR eye cream on Friday, used it that night and the next morning I could swear my dark circles are better overnight. Is that even possible?? I just ordered the Naturium Fit K. I'll let you know. A side note - I lived on the southern Oregon coast for 30 years. Now in Anchorage, AK, 2 blocks from the grandchildren. We still have family in Oregon. Hugs from Alaska...

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

Ahhh the southern Oregon coast is my childhood! I lived in Medford/upper rogue then Ashland for college. We visited the coast all the time 💙 I’ve never been to anchorage, but it looks so beautiful 🤩 If you felt like your under eyes looked better overnight it may have been hydration 😊😊

[@afroditi5845]

Not me leaving from an e-conference to watch your video...😂😂😂

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I’m flattered!! 😍 Happy Sunday ❤️

[@liviusss]

Well I would totally do the same, it's such an important topic! 😅

[@aprilarredondo1197]

How would this product play with the new copper petide cream from Naturium? Can they be used together?

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

It should be fine- there is a vitamin c in the naturium K but it’s a derivative so no issues there. 😁

[@hunghing883]

Can i use vitamin K serum with microneedling?

[@melindagenitempo2359]

I have the Isdin K ox and no diff Now I haven't combined it with BOJ retinaldyhyde eye serum but will I was told my eye skin is thin therefore I only need caffeine and hydration. I will combine and report back .

[@claudiasummers2383]

I've struggled with dark circles for many years and now I am so eager to try this in hopes that it will help diminish the look of them. I so greatly appreciate all your research and all the valuable information you bring to us. I do have a question. I currently alternate with growth factors and copper peptides at night. I always top them off with my prescription retinoid. I was wondering if the vitamin K should be applied before the growth factors and copper peptides or not use them in the same routine? Or can I mix one pump of the vitamin K together with my retinoid and apply it over either the growth factors or copper peptides?

[@PENNSMITHSKINCARE]

I would consider layering vs mixing. So GF, CPs then vitamin K then retinoid. Copper peptides are so funny….for the longest time they were thought to be a non mixer with practically everything, now it seems that because they aren’t free copper they’re likely ok with most everything. I’m still careful with straight up l-ascorbic acid and copper peptides but even that is probably ok (just wait a few minutes). What a puzzle, right? 🫶🏼💙

[@claudiasummers2383]

@@PENNSMITHSKINCARE thank you so much for your respond. Yes, it's a very confusing puzzle with so many pieces to put together. I thank God you exist because I couldn't imagine trying to figure this all out on my own. ♥

[@kimberlyhoffmann7559]

This vitamin K serum is sold out everywhere. Is there any recommended alternative? I want to try this combo!

[@autumnkarr2805]

I asked naturium if they plan to restock and they Saud no. Why wouldn't they restock such a popular item?!? Seems weird

[@CharlisDailyDiary]

Q? Does Vitamin K cause hair growth in some people like Copper Peptides do?

[@vanessamusa6402]

Is this safe to cosmetic or nano micro needle?

[@melp8175]

Hi Penny, I’ve been researching vit k eye serums this year. Naturopathic ( sp? ) has a VIT K BUT they won’t release the amount used in jar. It’s also 89.? The dermatology one has coconut oil in it? I get milia around eyes so can’t use it . For hereditary / stress dark circles, what vit k would you rec? Thx from PDX , sunny autumn weather ❤

[@db-gb5xi]

Dr Dray did a video on vit k eye creams and some she listed were: Biopelle dark circle relief cream, Revision skin care vitamin k serum, Herbal dynamics vitamin K & green tea, Naturopathica vitamin k serum, Belli eye brightening cream
