Where is our orders Julia
The geek and gorgeous ones are elegant and hydrating. They are fungal acne safe too.
Yes! Judit (the founder of G&G) told us she aims to make her formulas fungal acne safe whenever possible!
Finally someone from Australia with products we can get! Thanks!
Haha yes I wanted to bring these great brands to Australia so The Formula is a collection of great products that have been hard for us to find previously. Thanks for watching :)
A year ago I started using the A-Game 5 from G&G, it was my first time with retinoids and it worked great in my sensitive rosacea prone skin. I started using it once per week the first week, then the second week twice, until I manage to used it every single night. After the first bottle I switched it for the A-Game 10 and started to using it twice per week the first week, the second week three times and then every single night. Since then, I'm still using it every night and It has never given me any irritation, purging or sensitivity at all. It is very gentle but at the same time very effective because the results are great, my skin is better than ever and I'm 42 years old. And I think the strongest product with retinal in the market at this moment is the Crystal Retinal 20 from Medik8, it has 0.2%. I have never used it because I think it is very pricey and I am happy with G&G.
It's great you were able to integrate retinal so nicely into your routine. I have the exact same experience with retinal and I have never looked back! I'm curious about Medik8 but the G&G is just so good that I can't bring myself to purchase it at that price! Thanks for watching ;)
The Ordinary just came out with their Retinal and it is wonderful!
I've been using retinaldehyde for twenty and I don't see the need to go anyway stronger.
I'll be 52 in a bit and use Avène.
When I started it I went straight in with 0.05 percent all over every night and when my skin got a bit tender I skipped a night and then got back on it.
I could never tolerate regular retinol before that, but retinaldehyde was a breeze
Thanks for sharing this! Wow that’s fascinating and great to hear it’s working for you long term. I totally agree that retinol is harder to tolerate than retinaldehyde for me too!
I've been using Medik8 retinal for two years stepping up from 1-6 ...pretty effective with consistent use with very little reaction, but is quite exxy long term. I believe A-Game is quite similar and easier on the pocket so will definitely be trying it out next. I've become a G & G convert thanks to the Formula Skincare making it available in Aus.
I'm curious about Medik8 but just can't bring myself to try it at that price point, especially since I'm so happy with the results from A-Game! That's so great to hear you're loving G&G - me too :)
I started using the YTTP Retinal for about a full year before I was prescribed tretinoin. I also have combo to oily skin. I was told by my dermatologist to use the Tretinoin (0.025%) 3 times a week and continue with my YTTP Retinal the rest of the week. I’ve going on Tret since early December and I never peeled or got any irritation from the tret. I didn’t purge either, but I was prescribed tretinoin for anti-aging and acne scars, not acne itself as I no longer get breakouts beyond the random hormonal one.
I think that having been doing Retinal for so long before starting tret helped significantly; as my skin does tend to be both acne prone and sensitive.
Thanks so much for sharing this story! I’m always curious about how derms advise to use retinal with prescription retinoids. So happy to hear the combination is working for your skin and thanks for sharing :)
Great video…you really know your stuff! I’ve also been using the Medik8 Crystal Retinal 10 for years … and more recently the G&G No 10.(always sold out) . I love the brands stocked at The Formula.
A-Game is super popular and we are working hard to try and keep it in stock! It’s incredible though so I understand why 😅Thanks for watching!
the great thing with YTTP is that it's a powerhouse. no need to get another niacinamide serum since it already has 5%, or a ceramides ampoule. so for all 3 in one product, the price point isn't so bad.
That's a very good point!
Very informative video thank you! Medik8 make several different products with retinal at various different strengths with their strongest serum at 0.2%. Other brands are Naturium, Maelove “moonlight serum” and Caroline Hirons skin rocks.
Thanks for watching Elizabeth! These are great recommendations that I’ll be adding to my list 🤩
Super informative video Julia , thank you 😊 Love the BOJ eye serum as my allover night serum every second night & the first retinal / Retinol that hasn’t irritated me skin at all . But will definitely look at the wishtrend one or the Geek & Gorgeous A game 5🤓
That's great to hear the BOJ is working for you! Hopefully you can slowly increase in strength over time. Thanks for watching!
I'm using the A-Game 0.05 and I'm loving ❤. Thank you for the info!
Glad you enjoy it!
Great info! Can’t believe that you don’t have more subs!!!
Thanks for watching! Hopefully more will come 😅
Outstanding review of Retinyl Products. Thank you ❤
Thanks for watching!
I've always found retinol to be somewhat irritating. It was surprising to switch to up to G&G retinal and not experience any irritation at all!
Wonderful and informative video. I really enjoy your presentation style. I’ve just subscribed.
Thanks so much for watching!
i use the boj retinal eye serum and the good molecules retinol cream. love both. they are both gentle enough to use all over my face and both are affordable. i use the gm one on my neck and hands too.
I haven't tried the Good Molecules one yet but it seems to be a good option for areas of sensitivity. Thanks for sharing!
Hey i had a question is the medik8 crystal retinal 10 stronger than the paula choice medical retinol 1%?
Sure! Medik8 Crystal Retinal 10 is more effective than Paula's Choice Retinol
Where is my order do not trust them they are scammers still have not recieved order after 7 months
Very helpful. Thank you!
Thanks so much for watching!
Amazing review❤
Thanks for watching and glad it was helpful!
Tysm for the video...I am useing geek and gorgeous from last year... very yellow and not that effective I use 10 ....so now want to try YTTP retinal.. what do you think..will it be more helpful for my 40s fine lines 😊
It does have a slightly higher percentage but is more yellow because of that. Definitely worth a try if it's in your budget. Bear in mind that it'll take around 3 months to start seeing results with this ingredient :)
@@theformulaskincare tysm dear
Just subscribed, Julia! Really impressed that you reviewed By Wishtrend, I thought I was the only one that knew about it ;) Love this product, I alternate it with G&G .5% A-Game. I love Bakuchiol, I got started with it with Paula's Choice 2% Bakuchioil and .3% Retinol. I used that for about 18 months and had excellent results. Wanted to go to Retinal and found the Retinal products that I'm using now. From what I've read about Bakuchiol, is that its strength is to use it with a Retinoid product for maximum effectiveness.
Have you tried any of the Mae Love products or the Naturinum Retinal yet?
Thanks for watching and sharing your experience with retinal. I also love to see bakuchiol paired with retinoids - such a good combo! I haven't yet tried the Naturium retinal as it's not available in Australia yet. I've had Maelove on my skincare wishlist for ages so I need to get around to trying a number of their products. Wish I had more than once face to try all these things haha :)
Hi Julia, how much is Differan gel/cream (Adapolene) in Australia? Do you need a prescription for it there?
Cheers for the info.
Have you had experience with Tretinoin by the way?
Hi! Apologies for this delayed reply - somehow my original one got deleted. Adapalene is about $85 here in Aus. Yes, you need a prescription for it. I have been prescribed both Adapalene and Tretinoin in the past. My skin definitely responds to Adapalene better with less irritation. I find results from retinal to be excellent with little to no side effects so it's my retinoid of choice for now! Thanks for watching x
Very informative ? Thank you
I have used the Avene Retrinal 1% and was really happy with it but unfortunately have had to import from America as it is not available in Australia
I cannot understand why as I can import it - so frustrating.
Here in Aus we don’t have that line, but the Antioxitive line has one with the exact same strength. Also their Cleanance line has a high percent of retinal in one product too. Its frustrating that they don’t have the same lines internationally.
The Medikate also has a line of retinal and the naturium also does now. Could you add those up too in another video maybe.
Thanks for the recommendations Monica! I'm very curious about these two brands so I'll test them next and report back x
I love the naturium product with retinal. It's lovely
@@mistyswiney7339 It's not yet available on the Australian Naturium site so hopefully it'll be here soon!
I am using Medik8 Crystal Retinal just now. After using Tretinoin. What I like about about Medik8 because it provides steps. .01,.03,.06,.1, and .20 (which requires consultation). Although I had been up to Tretinoin at .05, I chose to start at .03 just to get my skin used to it, as I’ve had a gap since Tretinoin. I’ve had absolutely no problems.
I’ve also had the Joseon eye cream which I use it all around my face, and like she says, it’s nice to alternate nights with it,. I’m also using it on my neck as I’m very sensitive there. P.S. Medik8 is not inexpensive and the price increases with each step, but I believe 1 tube lasts2 months, or near that.
What about naturium’s retinal?
I haven't tried it yet as it's not available in Aus as far as I know. Looks good though!
@@theformulaskincare thank you!
Can you use any strength retinol while breastfeeding??
It's generally advised to cease use of topical and oral vitamin A derivatives during pregnancy and breastfeeding. There are limited clinical studies on the use of topical Vitamin A in pregnant women and there's not likely to be future studies due to the potential risk. It's best to check with your doctor or dermatologist for their expert advice and recommendations for alternatives to vitamin A. Thanks for watching!
between tretinoin and retinal what would you advise?
It really depends what you’re wanting to treat and the severity of your condition. If it’s general anti-ageing benefits you’re after, I’d recommend beginning with a retinal before going down the tretinoin path. It’s easier once you have some experience of a potent retinoid I find personally. Your doctor or derm will be able to advise based on your skins needs. Thanks for watching!
WHERE IS MY ORDER SCAMMERS
If you're having transfer onto your clothing or bedding, you're using way too much and not allowing it to dry
Thanks for the tip! I do apply the exact same amount between brands so I think with the Youth to the People one, being a ‘clean beauty’ brand, they choose to omit penetration enhancing ingredients that a lot of other brands use to help absorption. Thanks for watching 😊
