Recurring dryness and peeling under the eyes is usually due to sensitive skin irritation, most commonly a form of eczema (skin dryness and inflammation) or a mild allergic reaction to products like face creams, soaps, makeup, or even frequent rubbing of the eyes. The skin in this area is very thin, so it reacts easily to dryness, weather changes, or chemicals. To manage this, keep the area well moisturised with a gentle, fragrance-free cream, avoid harsh face washes or cosmetics near the eyes, and do not rub or scratch the skin. Washing with plain water or a mild cleanser and patting the area dry can help. If the problem continues, a doctor may suggest a mild medicated cream for a short duration to reduce inflammation, but strong creams should be avoided near the eyes without medical advice. If there is redness, swelling, or worsening symptoms, it is best to consult a doctor to confirm the cause and get proper treatment.
