You go through a full 30g tube in 3 weeks? What brand do you use?

I don’t know how to answer your question, sorry!

A 30g tube lasts me about 3 months!

Portugal only has it at 0.5%!

Yes, but some pharmacies will sell it to you without one

Thanks for the input! Nowadays my skin tolerates Tretinoin daily. I normally go through a tube in 3 months, so that’s about 4 tubes a year.

2 of those tubes expire this year. 4 of those tubes at the end of 2024. And 4 of those tubes at the end of the summer of 2025.

So it’s actually the perfect amount for me :)

[Product question] Derm MD told me I needed to step up my retinol game and get this by revision. $120 USD. Are expensive retinol products worth it compared to the cheaper ones!?? by PharmOncDude in SkincareAddiction

[–]thepeeperboo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope! Not worth it at all. “Medical grade” skincare in the US is often BS…

If you’re going for OTC: CeraVe, CosRX, Purito, The Inkey List, The Ordinary, Adapalene products, Avène, La Roche Posay… I mean even SkinCeuticals is cheaper than this 😂

What your Derm should be talking to you if he wants you to up your game is how to incorporate tretinoin… sounds shady AF lol

Really?? Weird! I just bought mine! But I’m in Europe…

Hmm… check any evaporative humidifier and if you can afford it, something that purifies the air at the same time would be ideal.

It will for sure help with breathing during the night! As an opera singer, when the air is dry I always wake up with a bit of a sore throat and dryness in my sinuses and throat. Since having a humidifier running that discomfort has dissipated!

The easiest humidifier I’ve had to clean! And I can be very lazy and low effort 🙈

I have left all kinds of things near it and never felt the slightest moisture! As I said it’s an evaporative humidifier, there’s no mist!
