[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would pare down. The tretinoin is the true workhorse for chemical exfoliation, but .1% is strong. If you've never used it, I would get your own prescription and start with .02% I would suggest: - a mild cleanser - basic daytime moisturizer (e.g., Cetaphil) - daytime SPF - a nice, thick nighttime moisturizer w/o any actives (e.g., Laroche posay Lipikar Ap+m Triple Repair for face/body); you can also use this as an eye cream, which is what my Derm recommends and I love it - use the tretinoin at night (start slow and sandwich); you can even apply sparingly around crows feet - maybe use Vitamin C/feurilic acid every other day, and add something like The Ordinary's squalene to your daytime moisturizer if the tret is causing you to be too dry[/quote] DP -- all of the above is great advice. This is all you need unless you have other prescription meds rx'd by a Derm.[/quote]
