- Bioderma atoderm creme
- Bello photostable sunscreen
- Vaseline (sometimes at night)
Along with retin, and now I don't have any red bumps, irritated skin caused by retin. I stopped using all the actives and other skincare products. My skin got a lot better.
Am using prescription one tret two times a week for aging purposes nd doing very well

hi Madhurika do you use it everyday?
@@anjalisawlani nope. Only three times a week
@@madhurikamoorthy8365 that's great. thank you for replying dear 😊
Omg that is a great technique. Would never think of that🤔 Did a professional suggest it? Does it affect the way the product works? Thank you in advance! 👋
Hello mam just wanted to tell u that it was so brave of you to share yr journey with us☺☺. The information given by u are really very helpful. Thank u so much. ❤❤

I am currently in the purging phase 😥 ... My skin has always been acne free since childhood... Just a little bumps here and there... I started retinol for same purpose that is ageing gracefully
But in this purge phase I am starting to experience so many breakouts
I am not used to seeing my face like this
Hope it end faster 🥺🥺🥺🥺💖
Hows your face doing now?
Any update?
I cried purging
Update
Updates??
I have started my retinol journey a month back. Purging and irritation phase is on. I wish I can sail through this rough patch in a month. Thank you for your insights
How is it going now? :( I'm on week 7 but the purging won't stop
@@fatymah7528 i did reduce my application to 3 nights per week and the purging stopped and now my skin feels better
@@poojamitra3990 yess I apply 3 times a week too, could you tell me how long did the purging last for you?
@@fatymah7528 approximately 2 months of purging… I discontinued for a week till it subsided and then again started with it. Skin improves after the purging phase… one has to cleanse internally too. Warm Lemon water helped me
@@poojamitra3990 how is ur skin now?
Thank you for your information ❤❤very honest
first time watching your video, your a good talker keep it up
Hi mam can you please tell which ceramide moisturizer you used. I am watching this for the 20th time I am on my retinol now this video Pampers me a lot ❤️ thankuouu
You know dear I was also going to stop retinoind but i saw u sudnly nd m inspired from u ur story is similar to my story thnxss for being my inspirarion
which moisturizer did you use? ceramide? also which products clogged your products
Which ceramide moisturiser will go with oily skin?
Same question
Klairs one
Or there's a Dr sheths serum
Try Aqua Oats Moisturizer, it will be beneficial with retinols
Truederma moisturizing lotion
Hey thanks for this video can uh make video on pie
God this feels like my story!!!!
Still on tret
And i swear people pointing out on ur acne is worst
tell me about it 🥲
I am having what they call a purge with retinol at the minute and you can see how people just give it up. It's very off-putting 😐
I think universe is pulling me to use this Trentin… it’s exciting but scariest… Guys can you please give me some advice..
I don’t have any acne issues but I have dull skin and some what discolouration which makes it look a little bit uneven.. not the smoothest but not so much texture.. but I always dream of achieving clean skin with equal colour everywhere.. i never used actives or chemical peels.. not a sensitive skin… I have a I am 27 btw..
which brand and concentration retinol do you think is best to start with????
Which retinol good for beginner and senestive skin people
Yes.. Suggest some name
@@supriyafreedom4828 adapelene gel
0.5 retinol by the ordinary
Which sunscreen would go with retinol for a combination skin?
Hi did you faced any irregularity in your period while using this?
hi Sreeja 🌹 thanks for sharing your experience & tips. I started Tret .025 about 3m back. made my skin dry &controlled sebum prodn. Can't say if there's any improv in texture. my skin didn't purge yet. using twice in a week now, I want to transition to regular use, you think is it a good idea?
Yes but please consult your dermat once
@@skinoreal7327 thank you replying Sreeja 😊. My dermat has recommended that I should not use tret or retin A, cos I have frequent hormonal breakouts, he's of view that it would make it worse. The tret that I'm using is self prescribed after watching understanding tons of YT videos for guidance & it's working alright cos I don't miss sunscreen.
thank you mam for sharing your experience 😊
which sunscreen will be better for retinol journey? As I get tanned easily..
requil is a good option
the going through my tret journey for acne of course with a dermat and it’s the worst my skin has ever been mainly cause i’m not used to looking at my skin that way and every damn human i meet says omg u jade clear skin what happened i’m so damn frustrated at this point
Please ask your derm to reduce the strength and frequency. You can derive benefits even by just using it once a week just may take longer but without the irritation
Hey can you please recommend a good cleansing oil or cleaning balm for oily acne prone skin??
Dear when we have breakouts which cream to apply... Cosrx ceramide or klairs blue midnight or bioderma cicabio
depends upon the type of breakout and your skin tbh
@@skinoreal7327 tbh means?
hello ma'am.
i want to start using retinol. but i am really scared about the purging. i am in my teens and i have hardly had any acne. i was thinking of using a milder encapsulated retinol (not adapalene/tretinoin). can u please tell me if that product will have the same side-effects and breakouts.
Hey no need to start now tbh for now stick to a simple and effective routine Retinol is good when ur in ur mid 20s i mean if u are comfortable u can start now.
every1 talk about the acne and the marks but what about the SCARS which never goes completely even derma roll etc rarerly make clean skin so who never have pimple or cystic acne better don't use this i guess every1 should inform. you will get the marks clear but the scars won't.
Did it make your skin oily ?? Cause tretinoin is making my skin oily I don't know what to do
You are a dermatologist??
Hey from where did you buy paula choice retinol??
I m on the same phase now... M turning to be 29 this October... I just broke out all over my face on June... Since that time I m breaking out and it got severe from last two weeks... nothing help me to get out of it... I have stopped all the exfoliation products too ..
I don't know how to deal with it now...
Maybe there is something in your routine that is not working for you
Heyyy can i use differin? Adapeline?
Dear sugandha vit c is gud?
Great tips but when I go for short contact the tret at times flows down to my eyes from the forehead and irritates them . I am really scared of it migrating or flowing down to my eyes. Is there any way to protect the eyes ? Thank you
apply a thin layer of petrolatum jelly around the eyes before (but be careful as for some this can lead to milia, never created any issues for me though)
@@skinoreal7327 thanks a lot. Love you 😘

Hlo sreeja di i have normal to oily skin please suggest me a product for dark spots nd also for pimples??
Nd also i want to know how to clean buildup (bcoz of sweat) from the scalp?? I m facing hairfall since last 1 month.
Please help me
hello bhawna for this you would need to book a consultation ☺️
Hey is tret good for undereye fine line ?
Hy Sreeja ❤️..pls suggest me something I am continuously getting those painful pimples on my chin..tired of trying everything 😭..u r my last hope
Hey Smruti I can't help you without a skin analysis , if you need my help you would first need to book a consultation ☺️
Hi you must start using facewash containing salyclic acid and glycolic acid, I had my full face filled with bad acne, but I started using all those facewashes(I tried three brands so don't know which one out of them worked) Also I remember once I had a medicine called tretinoin or something prescribed by doctor and that vanished my bad acnes in just one day! But I think they came back again as I wasn't using good products (salyclic facewashes etc at that time) Also, dont use biotique toner because I've heard they badly affect the acne I didn't know it then, but now I think maybe that was making my acne worse. If u use any toner then use good and gentle toners on acne. And u can apply vitamin E capsules(evion) on your acne, that will help. In my opinion removing acne is very very easy if you know the right products to use! :) coz I had worse type of acne on my whole face which I thought will never leave me, but now I have zero acne! All thanks to the right salyclic n glycolic facewashes, vitamin e capsules(not orally) and the right toners etc.
Mam which retinol cream or serums u can suggest
check out my Instagram post on retinol recommendations
we need recommendations 😅😅 for beginners
I do have a Instagram post on the same
Can relate 🥰🥰🥰

i started off with tret 0.05 % pea-sized about for face and neck once a week for a month, then upscaled to twice for next month and now thrice a week since the third month. I do not experience any dryness from the second month onwards but I do not ahve clear skin either. Should I stick to this or restart with a gentler retinol?
Dear I see the results after 1 year.. You have to be continue.. Now it's my 2nd year using tret.
@Rupal Sikka At what age one can start using retinol for anti aging purpose ?
@@explorer4563 after 20 .. I think it's safe.. But use a little pea size amount at the beginning. I use pea size for at least 6 month. First month I use only one's in a week the 2nd mnth twice nd then 3 time. Now I use 3 time in a week. It takes time. Nd I'm gona use it for my whole life
@@explorer4563 and yes one thing check Jennifer mayers channel. You knw everything about retinol
@@aarjuchoudhary2562 I have turned 21 last week so can I start with cerave retinol serum ?
Api plz genetics dark circles ka kuch bta dyn 😢😢😢😢😢
Im 18 and a guy just curious will retinol worse my skin? Like ive listened about purging and all, i dont have acne that much just a bit of pimples on my forehead which i get sometines .
Hey I’m 13 and suffering from acne my dermat has suggested me to use sebamed face wash oryza moisturiser and adapelene as spot treatment is it okay??
yupp ... retinoid is used as a counteractive for hormonal acne and have been used for teenagers for a long time ... it's just in late 20th century that it's anti aging benifits were found and it was trademarked for aging or mature skin ... U can and u should trust ur dermat 😄
@@blackngrey4424 thank you
How long does it take to show results?
@@harshiailani4193 As u said that u have been recommended to use it as a spot treatment ... it will take 2-3 day for pimple/spot to fully subside
@@blackngrey4424 thank you so much for helping 😊
@@harshiailani4193 No issues ... u can always ask if u have any questions
What's PI and PIH?
Post inflammatory hyperpigmentation
Can u tell me an acid(except vitamin c) to be used for dark spots and pimple marks..? I have normal to combination skin
Alpha arbutin
Do check rubina guleria
@@saltnatnaseem5738 can u share me the link of that video?
@@Aysha1419 simply search rubina guleria nd watch her few video.. Ull like th content...
Alpha arbutin will work to reduce these spots
But first refer her videos
Should everyone consult dermat to start vit A derivative as we all are not expert to pick right one for ageing gracefully? Or should start with a less percentaged one?
No pls consult a dermatologist first
Dont start on your own
it's always best to consult an expert before getting into retinols
Did you continue using retinoid during purge?
yes
Please suggest a good night cream for anti aging
Morning: i wash my face with salicylic 2% acid face cleanser, following with niacinamide serum and sunscreen...
Night: wash my face with mild cleaner(i use dove soap)/*don't need to use salicylic facewash twice a day , make it once in a day*/ and following with niacinamide serum and glycolic acid cream with aqua soft moisturizer.
Alternate night: cleanse with dove soup, niacinamide serum, and then aquasoft moisturizer, adapalene gel .
You look fabulous now,
U look like u r in teen for sure.
I love the way u expound. ❤️
I have been to 3 dermatologist.
They always say tretinion is not meant for skin.
I dont know where m i supposed to go to get myself diagnosed to get prescription Tretinoin.
😒
I m 33.
Could u help me out if possible
Thank you so much and I can help you build an effective ageing gracefully routine with retinols if you like but you would need to first book a consultation. Also not everyone needs tret
Can we use j&j retino a 0.5% (tretinoin) without prescription? (I have been using retinol for more than a year now) I have invested in high / expensive rets however started following drugstore trets (one mentioned above . Started with 0.25 and now on 0.5) to save costs. Pls advise if the one I am using is okay ok or I should switch back to retinols ?
Is it safe using retinol at 23 age???
You font's have to be a certain age to use retinol, at least if u use it for acne. For anti aging effects I would recommend mid 20s
Hey,How many times a week should we apply tretinoin for fastest results??
You should ask this to your consulting dermat
Aap ko dekh ke lagta nhi aapko pimple hua hoga 😞sach me the kya?
I m using since 8 January 2024 now today is 31 March ,,still I m pursuing 🥹🥹
