I have really thin skin on my under eyes. It's really thin and the pores are just kind of white bumps (not because of acne just fair skin and it's almost transparent under my eyes so you can see where the pores are) and I moisturize frequently and have oily skin so they aren't really dry. It's just frustrating doing an entire face of make up and no matter how good it looks I can't be happy with it because I look 40... Any suggestions? Would going to a dermatologist do me any good? Or would they even be able to help more so than a good primer.

I have the same problem so I understand your frustration I haven't really found a great solution, I haven't gone to a derm but I doubt there is anything they can do because its thin skin but maybe worth a try! I just use a lot of primer there compared to the rest of my face to try and even the texture before my makeup. the little white bumps are almost look like a mild form of milia is just because that area doest have as many layers as the rest of your body. also a thicker under eye concealer has helped look better vs a thin liquidy texture. if you do go to the derm and they can help definitely let me know!
