new to vit C and retinol - pls rec yours

Anonymous
Prescription tretinoin cream

the Ordinary C powder - better results with this than I had with 3 years of Skinceuticals!

TO’s squalene oil added to the C powder and moisturizer mixture is also key for me year round

I use Skinceuticals vit C and I get my tretinoin (0.5) from Apostrophe

But what you REALLY need is a few IPL sessions (laser). That will take care of many of the sun spots, freckles, and redness. Lasers sound scary, but it isn’t bad at all. It takes about 20 min and you are slightly pink for maybe an hour afterward. Then you look totally fine. The freckles and sun spots will get darker over the following week and then flake off at about 7-10 days.

But word of warning- don’t start both or you will damage your skins moisture barrier. Introduce the retinol very, very slowly (one a week the first month, twice a week the 2nd month, etc.)as putting too many actives on your face at once is a recipe for disaster. GL!


I liked how vit c made my skin look, but I broke out from it and stopped. But I was also using retinol (otc Roc products) at evening. Started both products around same time, so now I’m wondering if that was the cause of irritation. I might give The Ordinary powder a try, it’s getting good press here!
