    There is a lot of confusion surrounding retinoids but for clarity, retinoid = retinol = adapalene = tretinoin = tazarotene. They all have similar functions!

      Usually the really high end stuff is the snake oil. The most effective ingredients are usually medicines, which are normally not that expensive. Once you start introducing golden flakes or whatever the celebrities are peddling, it gets expensive.

      ​@@intelligenthuman3262 some of the cheaper products that have the same ingredients may not have the same quality of ingredients tho, and the product may not work as well because the formula isnt as advanced. Ingredients are very important tho. Good skincare does not have to be expensive

      Good rule of thumb is that no skin product that works should cost more than $30 for a 30 day supply, and even that is kind of high if you ask me.

    video notes
    Excuse the spelling.
    1. are vitamin A derivatives (adapalene, tretnoid, retinol)
    2. anti-acne, improves hyperpigmentation, improves appearance pores, anti aging, improves skin texture
    3. retinol is less strong and irritating then tretinoid
    4. picking the right retinoid-based off of strength
    1. retinol - good for sensitive skin
    2. tretinoid more effective then OTC products. not necessarily more irritating.
    3. retinol, adapalene, retanal, tretinoid, zaratine - level of irritation least to most.
    4. use differen gel adapline for acne.
    5. use
    1. start low then go high.less irritating option. so skin has gotten used to it.
    2. start with using it every other day. skin needs time to adapt
    3. flaking and irritation is expected, which means it is working. peak of irritation is 2-3 weeks. after the skin will calm down and be less irritating. skin might get worse b4 better.
    4. after a month or so start doing it every day. then see how u do. then u can increase to twice a day IF u want/can.
    5. if you have sensitive skin then start with every 3rd night for 1 month -> every 2nd night for 1 month -> then every night for 1 month
    6. if you have sensitive skin then moisturizer first then apply retinoid and then moisturize again.
    7. use small amount, pea-size amount.
    8. after cleansing and then moisturize right away.
    9. protect sensitive areas. if your eye area is sensitive then apply moisturizer on eye lid before apply retinoid. only if that area is sensitive for you. if it is not then apply retinoid first due to benefits.
    10. time: stick with it. time till benefits anti-aging 3-6 months, hyperpigmentation 3 months.

Having used it under a dermatologist’s supervision as a teen and then moving and no longer having a dermatologist as an adult - I was so excited I came home with three bottles. Just a week later (layering it under moisturizer and barely putting any on as I remember how hard it is to start) skin pigmentation from old acne is going away and my hormonal acne is finally calmer. You guys just made a huge difference in my quality of life. I hope this comment makes your day!

    Only recently discovered this channel and am now binge-watching. These guys are great! The only thing I would have added to this is reinforcing that people MUST use sunscreen when using retinoids. Of course people should be using sunscreen religiously anyway, but it's hugely important when using retinoids (or any actives that are exfoliants). Living in Australia makes you really conscious of this. Will carry on bingeing this channel! ❤

      @JD Yes, retinoids should only be used at night. Sun exposure actually reduces their efficacy, so you want them working while the sun isn't out and you're sleeping. They also make your skin somewhat more sensitive to the sun (consistently, not just right after using), so sunscreen use is even more important than it is normally.

      The purge should be mentioned!!!!!! Retinoids create skin cell turnover, right? So, this is what causes flakiness if you get that. But also, brings things to the surface quicker so to speak. The purging period happens differently for different people, mine happened at the beginning to very quickly, that’s what this commenter is describing. Some people purge for weeks on end. JUST DO NOT GIVE UP LIKE THE DOCS SAID. I am personally on adapalene (differen .3% prescription). I also do moisturizer first then the retinoid. And nightly. My skin texture changed within days. I adore retinoids.

      Retinoids and ahas are similar products and mixing them has been known to cause chemical burns and long term skin damage. Vitamin c serums are not advised to use at the same time and typically are morning use to protect skin during the daytime from damage but need a sunblock added after it absorbs.
      I trade out my night time products. Retinol is couple of nights a week. Alpha hydrox a couple of nights, copper peptides a few nights..hope this helps.
