Yes, you need a prescription for tretinoin, but this can be obtained easily online. I know Amazon prescribes it and it is cheap if you have a prime membership. You need to start with a low percentage and work your way up. You also NEED to use daily SPF with tret.

Do not start tret without researching first. Reddit is a good place to start.

I would splurge on a good vitamin C serum like Obagi and get a prescription for Tret.

Cerave moisturizer (in the big tub) is cheap and a classic recommendation. My dermatologist even carries it. That's all you should need if you're using a Vit C serum and a retinol.

+1

There are cheap ways to get it too, so might not even count as a splurge.

Tretinoin. Altreno, specifically. The formulation is more tolerable than others.

Title says it all-a C product, a moisturizer or a retinol product? Specific brand recommendations welcome.
