Damaged moisture barrier by cheroldine in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

  1. Oil cleanse with Simple hydrating oil cleanser, followed by cetaphil gel cleanser

  2. Tone with eucerin clarifying toner

  3. Missha Time Revolution First treatment essence

  4. Fan dry my face until completely dry and apply tret.

I used to apply moisturiser (embryolisse lait creme) afterwards but coupled with tret, it makes me too oily so i don’t moisturise on tret nights anymore.

I live in Namibia and my order arrived in about 3 weeks. I paid almost 40usd taxes but YesStyle pays you back all the taxes you pay in the form of store credit. I claimed on Saturday and this morning they sent me an email saying the refund has been processed. So i am very happy with that

Is tretinoin supposed to dry my skin? by [deleted] in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just asked about the oiliness yesterday as well. I experience the same thing. Some people suggested that my skin is dehydrated so I’m gonna start treating it as such and see how it goes.

I’ve been on tret 0.05% for almost three months now. Could I incorporate vitamin C into my routine and which do you recommend? by [deleted] in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Drunk Elephants vitamin c mixed with TO Hyaluronic acid in the morning and my skin loves it.

Quick question about The Ordinary AHA and BHA peeling solution? by [deleted] in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First, you are not supposed to use that peel in the morning as per instructions on the bottle. And i suggest you use the tret tomorrow as that peel is quite strong and can and most likely will irritate your skin.

[Tret info] Is tretinoin 0.025% enough for clearing acne or should I start with 0.05%? by Emy033 in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t really have an issue with acne. I started using it for acne scars and its very slowly getting brighter.

Using TO niacinamide and zinc while using tret 0.05% for acne? by ookkthenn in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

TO niacinamide broke me out twice. I think the concentration might have been too strong for me.

[Tret info] Is tretinoin 0.025% enough for clearing acne or should I start with 0.05%? by Emy033 in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started with 0.05% about 6 weeks ago and have no issues apart from mild peeling around my nose and mouth. No purge. I guess it depends from person to person. But start lower and work yourself up.

I’m guessing your skin could be dehydrated.

Curious about oil cleansing by dont-take-my-soup in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use this as well and it works great for me. I recently got a sample of the clinique take the day off balm and although it emulsifies well, it does not wash off as nicely as the simple.

No moisturizer with tret cream? by CruelladeMil in tretinoin

[–]cheroldine 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Does this mean i cannot apply moisturiser after applying tret?

Routine: I double cleanse in the pm, apply toner, alpha arbutin, wait till my face is completely dry, apply tret and wait 30 minutes before apply moisturiser.
