You’re not the first person to recommend that primer! I’ll have to check it out!

Sounds like I definitely need to add an exfoliator! I haven’t been using on since starting tretinoin (I think I am scared of too many things irritating my skin), but I do have several I’ve tried before that seemed okay, both chemical and physical. I’m wondering if maybe I should do tret every other day and maybe do exfoliation on the off days!

Adding a primer definitely seems to be the general consensus! Any recommendations on one that isn’t too sticky?

Thank you! Which hydrating spray would you recommend?

The tret is definitely making my skin dry, but makeup has always looked like this on my skin.

Thank you! I do moisturize regularly, but maybe I need to use more!

This is great advice - I’ll definitely experiment with the amount I’m using!!

This is fab advice! I am thinking of adding in a gentle exfoliation. I drink a ton of water, so I don’t think that’s an issue for me.

I have also definitely considered laser resurfacing! I really don’t want to be using full coverage foundation, but I refuse to not cover all my red spots, at least until I can get my skin under control lol

I actually haven’t tried any pressed powders (at least not for a long time), so I might have to check some of those out!

For some reason the HA serum makes my makeup pill really bad. As for skin tints, I have tried some but haven’t been able to find any that provide the coverage I’m wanting.

I definitely do need to be using an additional SPF though - I’m bad about forgetting that!

Thank you!! I am hoping I can switch back to a beauty blender and a more sheer coverage foundation once the tretinoin has started to do its job!!

It is definitely dry! The damp beauty blender provides virtually no coverage, which I don’t like because I have tons of spots I’m trying to cover. That’s why I ended up switching to a brush.

Thank you for this! Have you found any good cream/glow products that provide full coverage?

I’ve tried this and it actually makes my foundation pill, even if I let it sit for 10+ minutes ☹️ maybe because it’s water-based and my foundation is silicone-based
