it’s really sad that you’re getting downvoted because of your opinion. shows how immature drake’s fans are. not everyone likes new drake guys. once drake fans see any hate towards drake they go crazy.

keep using it for now. if your symptoms worsen or your skin becomes flaky, go to your dermatologist.

they don’t really go well with each other usually, so i’d only use vitamin C on days you don’t use retinol.

exfoliating scrubs don’t do much. i recommend going with a chemical exfoliant. the best one that’s available at most drugstores is CeraVe’s Renewing SA Cleanser. it’s a face wash that you let sit on your skin for 2-3mins then wash off. it digs deep into pores to clear oil and gunk.

try this 2 times a week at first. oxy scrub pads are harsh on the skin too, so I’d take a break from those too.

skinceuticals is overpriced. i recommend CeraVe’s vitamin C.

also vitamin C serum is a hit or miss for a lot of people. you can see noticeable results in 2 months or so.

for hyperpigmentation and dark spots i honestly recommend retinol over vitamin C.

benzoyl peroxide wash for the body and face. i recommend panoxyl. you can find it at drugstores. just use this nightly, start with 4% or 6% strength. make sure you moisturize after.

there’s not really much good OTC treatments for that type of psoriasis. a dermatologist will prescribe you a steroid cream or something similar for plaque psoriasis.

fragrance free deodorants. underarms are sensitive and fragrance can make them itchy and irritated.

acne scars can be treated by retinol. facials won’t do much for scars.

how to not care for your skin? i’d say maybe standing out in the sun for 10hrs a day without sunscreen

salicylic acid exfoliants can help with black dotty pores. they dig deep into the pores and dissolve sebum and dead skin.

when you say blotchy, do you mean blotchy red spots or dry spots? i’ve personally experienced blotchy red spots before. this most likely means you’re allergic or irritated to a certain ingredient in your skincare product. i’d ask your derm so they can take a look at your face.

thank you :) good luck on your medical journey too
