Hi Holly, it is so nice to see your beautiful face! I am glad you enjoyed the video. Yes, the study was a bit scary, but quite flawed, and luckily never duplicated I hope you are well, I really want to catch up soon xo
@@claudiaglows Thanks Claudia! I totally agree about the study! I had the same initial reaction as you too. I hope you are doing well too!!! Let's catch up!
Magic! Really! No one can explain so perfectly! I did the same when I start my journey I believe 8 + years ago, trained by one of my best friend who is dermatologist! I wish I could use copper peptide, but I have too much live for my vitamin C in the morning, that I can’t stand without! Maybe one day. Who knows? Thanks Claudia! I wish your video could have Italian subtitles to make it easy for my friends and followers! Can you? Much love Bella! 💋
Hi lovely Annarosa, thank you so much for your very kind comment!! I am glad to hear retin a works for you as well. You don't want to use your vitamin c at night? That way you can use your copper peptides during the day.... Lots of love to you, cara❤️
I just started my Retin -a ( tretinoin) journey about a week ago ( I’m 52) at .025% ... so far so good! I’m really hoping I get as good of results as so many other gorgeous ladies. Thank you so much for making this video and sharing this important information 🙏🏼❤️
Hi, I am happy to hear you are doing well with the Retin a so far. Please keep us updated on your journey Wishing you a wonderful Sunday, and thank you so much for watching xo
I have just finished my workout and i am eating an apple watching you.. I always have to watch your video immediately after you’ve posted. Love this so much and you know I adore you 💌💗
Hello my gorgeous friend, I am so happy to hear from you❤️ Good job for working out! And you know I adore you just as much Sending you the biggest hug😘
Thank you Claudia. I stopped using Retin A a few years ago. I tried going back on it a couple of years ago. My post Menopause skin didn't like it. I like the A313. I've been using it over a year now. Thank you for sharing all the research and facts about this topic. I really appreciate it! xoxo
Hi gorgeous, I have heard great things about the A313 and am glad it is working for you. I am so happy to see your beautiful face here and hope you will have a wonderful day xo
Brilliant video Claudia. Great to have all those myths busted. I was petrified to use Vitamin C in the same routine. Good to know I can. I also use copper peptides during the day so it's good to know that I can continue that and put my vitamin c in at night now. I've been using .05% tretinoin for 3 months now and no irritation. Thanks a million for sharing.
Hi Emer, so lovely to hear from you! And I am so glad this video was helpful. Yes, go at it with your vitamin c, along with the Retin a at night. Great to hear you are seeing no irritation from the tretinoin Thank you for your sweet comment, I hope you are well xo
I’ve been using Retin-A for about three years and I thought I knew everything boy was I wrong! Oh thank you so much for the information it was a learning experience.
Hi gorgeous Renee, I am happy to hear this video was helpful! And that Retin a is working for you as well Thank hope you are having an amazing day, thank you so much for watching xo
Hello Claudia, congratulations on 10K subscribers, you deserve so many more! You will be at 1 million in no time! Thank you for this video, so informative, as always. You are my go to channel when I have a questions about skin care.
Thank you so much❤️! I am so happy you are part of my little RUclips family! Thank you for all you love and support! And I am happy to hear this video was helpful. I hope you are doing well and will have a wonderful day xo
Hello Gorgeous Claudia! You're looking so beautiful and your hair is so thick and healthy! As always when it comes to your videos, I think I know a lot and you manage to teach me more. Retin A has been part of my routine for a long time and know it's improved my skin. I can tolerate it on my neck, but have to really buffer around the mouth or the skin becomes dry and sensitive. I use Differin gel in a pinch when I run out. Thanks for taking the time to share studies and answer so many questions. Have a beautiful day! xo
Hello gorgeous Christine, as always it is so nice to hear from you. Thank you for your very kind comment! I’m happy to hear, that Retin-A has made a difference for your skin as well, it really is amazing. Sending lots of love to you, XOXO
Hello beautiful Claudia! I think you could be a very good dermatologist! Thank you for that compilation. I love how you explaining all! And your experience is also very helpful.💕
Hi sweet Marina, thank you for your lovely comment❤️ It would be so fun to be a dermatologist!! Maybe in my next life ;) I am glad you enjoyed this video Sending a big hug your way and hope Russia is experiencing spring xo
Hi Carla, it is so nice to hear from you, I have missed you❤️ I am glad to hear this video was helpful, and that you also love your retin a I hope you are doing well Have a great day xo
Claudia , I think this was a great perspective, and you explain things with such a calm spirit. Having been a master esthetician for over thirty five years ( I mention that because I have had the benefit of seeing hundreds of thousands of clients like a hands on study ) I do think Retin A can be tough on the skin and many people do not care for their skin properly while using it. I personally think Retinols or Vitamin A’s that are compounded with other essential actives by a compounding pharmacist or chemist is skin care is best and I have seen better results. Less irritation, less discoloration of the skin and less problems in general. As far as Ingredients getting in the blood stream, that is truth so always be mindful of the types of products you use. Yes you can use other Actives, just be sure they are natural, food for the skin. Thank You for your in-depth perspective. Have a blessed day Claudia. 🍑🙌🏻Lisa
Hi Lisa, thank you for your kind comment. I agree, Retin a can def. be hard to handle for some people. I was one of them. But I do think, with the right care, patients and nutrition, most of us can handle retinoids. If you can have a compounding pharmacist add other actives, I think that is a great choice. And yes, what we put on our skin goes into the bloodstream, I believe that as well. In the case of tretinoin, the argument was it not increasing plasma levels of vitamin A. As always, I so appreciate your input and experience, as well as your love and support❤️ I hope you are having a great week xo
Great video Claudia it’s amazing how so many drug companies and food companies and supplement companies manipulate research but when you look for the real thing that is an industry funded and you find the truth it’s pretty awesome we certainly don’t think carrots are dangerous Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha great video🌱💪🌎❤️
You guys always make me smile with your comment❤️. Thank you for that. And thank you for all your love and support, it means the world to me I hope you are well xo
Hey Beautiful!💕👀I Loved this! I have really been recommitting to RetinA (or Retinaldahyde) it is so amazing and, I think, underrated! I love the way you busted those myths🕵🏼♀️so helpful!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼Have a lovely day, my friend!🌬️🌱🥑💋
Hi gorgeous Cheryl, thank you so much for watching, and for your super sweet comment ❤️ I hope you are well! I am so happy I finally found out you have a channel as well xo
Claudia you are so beautiful inside and out! I just found your channel and can’t get enough. How soon after micro needling can you start using Trentinoin. Also, have you considered doing a cookbook or recommending one for beginners
Janet, your sweet comment made my day❤️ Thank you! You know, I have used tretinoin right after micro needling. I made a video on it a while ago. It is def. not for someone just starting out with retin a, and it does sting. But it intensifies the treatment and gives you a bit of a peel. Normally though, I wait at least 1-2 days, depending on how deep I micro needled. Some people say to wait as much as 1-2 weeks, but I do think that is over cautious. I would say if you are a seasoned retin a user, Wait 1-2 days, depending on how intense your micro needling treatment was. I hope this helps. I am so happy you are here, wishing you a great Sunday xx
Very interesting to hear about the vit C. In which order do you combine it with Retin A?I always try to let the Retin A do its work, meaning I put it on bare skin and only if need be I put on a moisturizer or oil hours later. One interesting thing I recently read is there shouldn‘t be more than 72h between applications of Retin A since the skin then has to start a new retinazation process every time. And lastly I‘m very intrigued by the copper peptides but I didn‘t know how to incorporate them in my routines, since so far I‘m using vit C in the morning and Retin A at night and I‘m not willing to give up either one for a single day. Good job Claudia, as always very informative and I‘m very happy for your success. You so deserve it!
Hi Kay, thank you so much for watching and for your kind comment. I put my retin a on first (well really a stem factor first, but I ran out of it), and like you, let it do its thing for a couple of hours. Then I apply my C, moisturizer and sometimes oil. I have heard about the 72 h window as well. That might well be, however, for me going slower seemed to do the trick. I hope you are having a great day, keep me updated on how you like using the vitamin c at night xo
Hi Niamh, I am so glad this was helpful! Yes, definitely use your vitamin C with your vitamin a, they will work better together and help stabilize each other. Keep me updated on how it’s going with it. I hope you’re having a wonderful day as well xo
MyDear Claudia...I only use Rosehip seed oil which contains a small amount of retinoic acid and I love it...it helps my skin..do you use one?...and yes...to me a good skin is all about nutrition..and water drinking...sending love..Jana XXX
Hi gorgeous Jana❤️ Yes, I used to use Rosehip oil and really like it. It is a great mild retinoid I hope you are feeling better and your carpel tunnel has eased xoxo
Hi Sue, that is awesome to hear. I think if you go slow with the retin a, you will be fine and see even more benefits. You could continue to use the skinceuticals retinol on the days you are not using retin a, when you first start getting used to it. Please keep us updated Wishing you a wonderful day, thank you so much for watching xo
Beautiful friend thank you for such an informative video. I don’t use retinols and I really want to start . I didnt know where or how to begin and you explained everything so thoroughly. This is what makes you and your channel so special. I am going to look into starting with retinol maybe a good medical grade . I look at you speak and honestly you are so beautiful naturally without all that makeup. That is my style . Thank you so much !!! 😍
Hello gorgeous, I love reading your sweet and thoughtful comments❤️ And I am so happy to hear this video was helpful. Yes my gorgeous friend, get on a good retinoid, your skin will thank you. If you need help with it, you know where to find me ;) Thank you for your very sweet comment xoxo
Hi Latrice, lovely to hear from you. I am happy to hear this video was helpful. Yes, def. give it another try, it is such a great ingredient. I hope you are having a great day, thank you very much for watching xo
Hi gorgeous, thank you for your sweet comment❤️ I use NIOD amino isolate copper peptides. I know you won't be able to get those in India 😒. Can you find any copper peptides there? xo
@@claudiaglows hi Hun did you complete your sports? The copper peptide serum available are 5x price😐😕😒 recently a new brand came up here... minimalist multi peptide serum is what I am testing now... great price point.
@@MicrocurrentLove hi gorgeous yes, I just got done :-) I’m glad you were able to purchase a cheaper copper peptide. I actually ordered a different one as well, from Amazon, which is a lot cheaper than the one I’m currently using. I will let you know what I think about it, once I use it for a while. XOXO
Thank you so much!! Very helpful Have you ever use Tazorac cream? And what are your thoughts about it? Again thank you so much!! You are awesome! Love your videos!
Christine, it is very nice to hear from you! Thank you for your kind words ❤️ I have heard of Tazorac, but have not used it. If you want I can do some research on it. I hope you are having a great day xo
Good morning beautiful Claudia ! so happy to watch this this morning as i drink my green tea and my face is tight and red after overdoing it with Tret lol ! i overdid it by cosmetic needling and using Tretinoin right after. I need to go slower. That being said i feel Tret is making my skin thicker and definitely has better texture. Love all the information you bring and the debunking the myths, especially the one about retinol wearing in the day and the people dying during the study..... So happy you spoke also about the research on skin cancer, this is one of the reasons i am using it because my dad has a history of skin cancer. Will share your video in my links on my channel. Sending you much love and hope you are well ! XXX
Hi gorgeous , for some reason your comments keep going into my spam, and then showing up a week or two later. I am so sorry, I just saw this comment. I am happy you enjoyed the video. Yes, isn't it great that it can help with skin cancer?! Thank you for linking the video!! Wishing you the most amazing weekend xo
Hi Claudia ~ I love your channel! Have you ever read or studied up on the product Curology? If so, I would love to get your take on it. Thanks! Have a great day!
Hi Stacey, it is nice to hear from you. Yes, I have. I have not personally used it, but a friend of mine uses it and loves it. I think when we move from here, and I won't be able to get the retin a over the counter, I am going to use Curology as well. So if you are on the fence about it, I would definitely say give it a try. What's nice about is, is that you can add a couple of other active ingredients to your prescription, depending on your skin concerns. I hope this helps. Please keep me updated if you start using it. Wishing you a great day xo
Hi Mali, I am glad to hear from you, thank you so much for watching. Unfortunately I do not have a link, since I get my tretinoin in our local pharmacy. Where do you live?
@@claudiaglows thank for your quick reply, I live in Australia and my sister lives in Iran. There are some products but world be good to read the exact names included in product. The below is available in Australia but via proscription. www.nps.org.au/medicine-finder/re-trieve-cream
@@malidav5724 yes, that is tretenoin. Unfortunately I can not find the strength in any of the information, but if you can get tretenoin in Australia, that is what you want. If you have different strength, I would start with 0.02, than go to 0.05 if you have no irritation I hope this helps Please let me know if you have more questions, and if you end up using it, please keep me updated
Hi Donna, lovely to hear from you. I actually have an evening skin care routine video, which might be helpful. However in that video I was not using vitamin C at night yet. So what I do, I either use a stem factor (or I don’t right now, since I’m out of it,), then my Retin-A. If I have time I will let my Retin-A absorb for a couple of hours, before I put on the rest of my skin care. So then I will apply divider Minsi, my moisturizer and or an oil. You could put your vitamin C on first, and then your Retin-A. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have anymore questions. Wishing you a wonderful day xo
Thank you Claudia for this great video! What is your take on strength? I am at 0.05% and not sure if I should try to go higher. I am going to have to look at copper peptide more. I had ruled them out because they cannot be used with tretinoin and I didn't know I could use my vit C with my tretinoin. I'll also have to go back and see what vit C product you use. Thank you.
Hi Santina, lovely to hear from you. You know, I think that if 0.05% works for you, it is a good strength. Most studies are actually done with that strength, and more is not always better. And yes, take another look at copper peptides. I am really loving them. And no matter what form of vitamin c you use, you can still use it with your retin a. The caution was just if one is going through retinization Please keep me updated Wishing you a wonderful day xo
Hi Claudia, hope you are having a lovely Monday. At some point in the future could you do a video on your skincare routine over a whole week & perhaps suggest similar alternatives that people could use. Also could you do a best sunscreens video at some point, thanks Niamh x
Hello gorgeous Niamh, As always, it is lovely to hear from you. Yes, I could definitely do that, thank you for the suggestion. And the sunscreen video of course as well. I hope you’re doing well and you had a great weekend xo
I really enjoy your videos thank you so much. I am using Retin-A every night .01. I believe that’s the strongest. Is that the right thing to continue.? Do I need to add something in the day?
Hi Joy, I am happy to hear you are enjoying the videos. Yes, the retin a 0.1 is the strongest, unless you to to something like Curology, where they can tirate further up. But I do not believe it is necessary to go higher. Are you using an antioxidant during the day, such as vitamin c? If not, I would add an antioxidant of your choice. And of course, sunscreen ;) I hope this helps, please do not hesitate to ask more questions xo
Thank you I love my retin a with my truth treatments vitamin c serum and balm. Every other night iv been useing a retinol seal with a ceramides cream dr jart is a good one 😉👍
Hi James, same here! I love the TT c balm on top of my Retin a. I have been so curious about the Dr Jart ceramide cream, and will have to try it now 😊 I hope you are having and amazing day Thank you so much for watching xo
Thanks for the info. What about nano particles in sunscreen I heard they turn into free radicals on the skin and do more damage in the long term than helping with aging? Thanks
Hi Megan, it is lovely to hear from you. You know, I will have to do some more research on that. As far as I know the concern with nano particles is them being small enough to be absorbed into places where we don’t want them. They are also horrible for the coral reefs. But I have honestly not heard about them causing free radical damage, so I definitely will do some more research on that one. Thank you so much for for bringing this to my attention. I will let you know what I find out. I hope you have an amazing day, thank you so much for watching xo
Thanks for all this Information. But I'm still confused what exactly I should try. Could you please recommend what to use and where I can get it in Europe, you talked about 5%. Which ingredience I have to look for? With lots of greetings from Germany!
Hi Britta, it is lovely to hear from you. I’m sorry if this is so confusing. So I am using 0.05% Tretenoin. Here in Italy I can get it over the counter. However I know that in Germany you need a script for it. So you could ask your dermatologist to prescribe it for you. I believe you also have 0.05% in Germany. If you cannot get tretinoin, the next best thing would be retinaldehyde. I am not certain what percentage you can get in Germany, but I would start at the lowest and work your way up. If you cannot find that, then you would use retinol. My friend in Germany just told me that she saw a 2% retinol in her pharmacy. So that would be a good strength, or you can start with less and work your way up. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have more questions, and also keep me updated. Wishing you a wonderful day, sending a big hug to Germany xo
My dermatologist has prescribed me the chemo cream for AK and after watching this video, I’ve decided I’m not going to use it. I already have tretinoin, but I stopped using it and I basically just been using an over-the-counter one by Avene. My anxiety grew when I watched all the videos, seeing the red faces and inflammation from the chemo cream. Worst case scenario I may just have them freeze it off because it’s mainly just one spot on my cheek and then continue the retinoids. I could try the chemo cream just on the one spot, but I figure what’s the point in doing that when I should probably use it over my entire face to get the full benefit. Either way I’m worried about using the chemo cream so I’m going to try and alternative method. Thank you.
Hey liz, I felt the exact same way about the chemo cream. It just has such dramatic downtime. And as you said, you already have Tretinoin , why not try that. Please keep me posted. x
Wow this is great sharing, Claudia. Wish I could give you 100 likes. May I know if you still apply Retin-A to your skin after microneedling now? I watched in a video that you do. I am wondering what is good to use after MN. I have been using this Dermaceutic's K-Ceutic and it is really expensive and it has in-built SPF but I usually do MN only at night and don't need SPF before sleeping haha.
Hi Amelia, thank you for your sweet comment I have used the Retin a a few times after MN, but it does cause a bit of discomfort, and lately o am just not wanting to deal with the discomfort So I use NeoGenesis Recovery with MN and after. It is a stem cell serum and I love it. Expensive as well, but a little goes a long way
@@claudiaglows Oh stem cells...ok. Have you heard of argireline? It is said that it helps with wrinkles but Penn.Smith says the molecules are too big to penetrate. I wonder if we can use it after MN and help it penetrate better, especially for crow feet areas that tend to have wrinkles.
Hi Suzy ❤️ I answered your under a different video. But as far as ascorbic acid, the form of vitamin c does not matter. Of it is oil based though, I would put the Retin a first I hope this helps xo
You are a wealth of knowledge, thank you. So, is Paula's Choice CLINICAL 1% Retinol Treatment weaker than the Differin Gel .1%. I'm thinking the Differin being a retinoid is stronger? But, I'm not sure...thanks for any help.
Hi Wendy, thank you for your lovely comment💕 So retionic acid is going to be the most powerful. Differin is retinoic acid. Paulas choice is retinol. Retinol has to go through 2 conversions to become retinoic acid. So the differin will be much more active, and stronger. But I have heard great things about Paulas choice retinol. It comes down to what your skin can handle. If you can handle the differin, I personally would go for that one. I hope this helps. Please let me know xo
@@claudiaglows Thank you, Claudia, for your time in responding! I have asked this question on multiple platforms and you are the only one to respond! And you've explained in an understandable manner. I get it now, lol. My super sensitive, combo skin has responded very well to Differin at age 53. I was using Retin-A on my face, as well as arms, but my arms were becoming red and itchy, so I'm mixing a small amount of Differin into my lotion to apply to arms. And it spreads so nicely. I'd love to see a video/or recommendation if you use actives on your body/arms.
@@josie4peace i am so glad my answer was helpful! Abs glad to hear your skin is liking the diffeeiin You know, I think what you are doing is great, asking a bit of it on your body. You can also get an AHA body lotion (alpha skincare renewal body lotion is good) and/ or vitamin c body lotion. And of course spf for the body as well I can work on a video with some suggestions 😊 xo
@@claudiaglows Thank you. I love the Alpha Skincare AHA but my arms can't tolerate it and it's so sticky. I love it for my legs though. That'd be a great video if you have time or are interested.
@@claudiaglows Sorry for the explosion of comments, but for some reason, RUclips stopped notifying me of your vids. So, I've been catching up, lol. ALSO, I've been using lotions with UREA on my body arms n legs, as its soft exfoliating property doesn't seem to irritate. AND, I have a red light therapy body device I use 3x/week...maybe these options could be covered in your video? Food for thought. :o)
Hallo Claudia, danke für das Video! Mit Retinoic Acids habe ich mich noch nicht befasst. Aber ich würde es gerne mal ausprobieren. Was genau verwendest du? Und bekomme ich das problemlos in Deutschland?
Hallo Sylvia, schön von dir zu hören! I benutzte tretenoin. Du kannst das in Deutschland auch bekommen, 0.05% tretenoin, aber du brauchst dafür ein Rezept vom Hautarzt. Dann kannst du es billig in der Apotheke holen. Aber du könntest mit Retinol anfangen. In Deutschland gibt es ja auch die Ordinary, die haben ein Retinol. Und du kannst auch of in the Apotheke Retinol finden. Ich hoffe das hilft. Bitte sag mir ob du mehr fragen hast Wünsche dir einen schönen Sonntag xo
just watched this great video. I wonder if you are familiar with ‘the truth treatment system regional 5% gel’ ? and if you are, what you feel about this product. I think it is very good, but am always striving to find the best retinol for my skin. i am soon out of this and wonder what’s your very best recommendation for best retinol ish product? is it the one you get from the prescription? cause i have understood right, that that’s what you are using? 😃
Hi Marianne, yes, I am very familiar with truth treatment products, and love them. I actually have a sample of the retinol right now, which I’m using on my neck. The only reason I don’t buy much from the brand, is that they use lanolin in a lot of their formulations. But, I think it’s an excellent brand and I think that everything they have is amazing. As far as the best retinoid, that really depends on your skin. I would say if you can handle Retin-A, which is the prescription kind, and the one I use, then in my opinion that’s the best. If you cannot get a prescription, I can’t handle it, I think that the truth treatments retinol is a great option. I hope this helps, please keep me updated, sending a big hug your way
@@claudiaglows ok, so i got my prescription tretinoin 0,5% , called Retirides 0,5% . How can i integrate this into my rutine? I do already use the truth treatment around 4 times a week. can i just start by swapping out one of the days with my new 0,5% ? or would it be no good to use them both in the same week?
@@marianneokvalvik yay! Yes, I would try that. Maybe use the TT twice a week, and the prescription 1 x, a day or two away from the TT. Try that for 1 months and then increase Please keep me posted
@@claudiaglows Great, thank you. What is your take on a rest days? The truth treatment people say it’s extremely important to have a rest days during the week and Max use five times a week. Is this not the same with the prescription?
Hi Claudia, do you have any concerns regarding the VATTC study that showed increased mortality rates among veterans who used tretinoin? Why or why not? Thank you.
Hi Darius, I honestly do not have any concerns about the study. It was never duplicated and had some real flaws. There are countless studies showing the efficacy and safety of tretenoin, I really think the veterans study was a fluke. xx
Dear sweet Claudia, I just love watching you but am having an awful time of hearing you clearly. You sound as though you are in an echo chamber & very tinny & hard to understand. I don't have that problem with anyone else, like Hot& flashy or even Tamara, or anyone else. I really think it's your audio system, & pray that you can resolve the issue, because whether I listen to you on my computer or T.V., it's just difficult to understand you because of the acoustics. It sounds as though you are in an empty house & the voice is bouncing off the walls I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I do struggle to her you & that's such a bummer. Bless you, Honey!!! P.S. Check out the video on Sept. 22, 2020, where you were in a different room of your house & the clarity & echo is soooo much better.
Sweet Valentia, thank you so much for your kind comment and your great feedback. I am sorry you are having a hard time hearing me. It’s our house. I have the door of my room open, to help some with the echo, but it does not help too much. I will try to play around with a different microphone, and see if that helps. If not, rest assured we are moving soon 😊 I really appreciate your kind feedback and will do my best to fix the echo Please keep me updated on future videos Wishing you a great day xo
@@claudiaglows You are truly an inspiration to so many people including me, but I did scroll through some of your other videos & the one in your bathroom sounds so much better. I'm sorry but I just don't want to lose you!!!!! Thank you so much! Bless your big heart!!!!

Magic! Really! No one can explain so perfectly! I did the same when I start my journey I believe 8 + years ago, trained by one of my best friend who is dermatologist! I wish I could use copper peptide, but I have too much live for my vitamin C in the morning, that I can’t stand without! Maybe one day. Who knows? Thanks Claudia!

Thank you Claudia. I stopped using Retin A a few years ago. I tried going back on it a couple of years ago. My post Menopause skin didn't like it. I like the A313. I've been using it over a year now. Thank you for sharing all the research and facts about this topic. I really appreciate it! xoxo

Brilliant video Claudia. Great to have all those myths busted. I was petrified to use Vitamin C in the same routine. Good to know I can. I also use copper peptides during the day so it's good to know that I can continue that and put my vitamin c in at night now. I've been using .05% tretinoin for 3 months now and no irritation. Thanks a million for sharing.
Hi Emer, so lovely to hear from you! And I am so glad this video was helpful. Yes, go at it with your vitamin c, along with the Retin a at night. Great to hear you are seeing no irritation from the tretinoin

Hello Gorgeous Claudia! You're looking so beautiful and your hair is so thick and healthy! As always when it comes to your videos, I think I know a lot and you manage to teach me more. Retin A has been part of my routine for a long time and know it's improved my skin. I can tolerate it on my neck, but have to really buffer around the mouth or the skin becomes dry and sensitive. I use Differin gel in a pinch when I run out. Thanks for taking the time to share studies and answer so many questions. Have a beautiful day! xo
Hello gorgeous Christine, as always it is so nice to hear from you. Thank you for your very kind comment! I’m happy to hear, that Retin-A has made a difference for your skin as well, it really is amazing. Sending lots of love to you, XOXO

Claudia ,
I think this was a great perspective, and you explain things with such a calm spirit. Having been a master esthetician for over thirty five years ( I mention that because I have had the benefit of seeing hundreds of thousands of clients like a hands on study ) I do think Retin A can be tough on the skin and many people do not care for their skin properly while using it. I personally think Retinols or Vitamin A’s that are compounded with other essential actives by a compounding pharmacist or chemist is skin care is best and I have seen better results. Less irritation, less discoloration of the skin and less problems in general. As far as Ingredients getting in the blood stream, that is truth so always be mindful of the types of products you use. Yes you can use other Actives, just be sure they are natural, food for the skin.
Thank You for your in-depth perspective. Have a blessed day Claudia. 🍑🙌🏻Lisa
Hi Lisa, thank you for your kind comment. I agree, Retin a can def. be hard to handle for some people. I was one of them. But I do think, with the right care, patients and nutrition, most of us can handle retinoids. If you can have a compounding pharmacist add other actives, I think that is a great choice. And yes, what we put on our skin goes into the bloodstream, I believe that as well. In the case of tretinoin, the argument was it not increasing plasma levels of vitamin A.
As always, I so appreciate your input and experience, as well as your love and support❤️
I hope you are having a great week

Claudia you are so beautiful inside and out! I just found your channel and can’t get enough. How soon after micro needling can you start using Trentinoin. Also, have you considered doing a cookbook or recommending one for beginners
Janet, your sweet comment made my day❤️
Thank you!
You know, I have used tretinoin right after micro needling. I made a video on it a while ago. It is def. not for someone just starting out with retin a, and it does sting. But it intensifies the treatment and gives you a bit of a peel.
Normally though, I wait at least 1-2 days, depending on how deep I micro needled. Some people say to wait as much as 1-2 weeks, but I do think that is over cautious. I would say if you are a seasoned retin a user, Wait 1-2 days, depending on how intense your micro needling treatment was. I hope this helps.
I am so happy you are here, wishing you a great Sunday

Very interesting to hear about the vit C. In which order do you combine it with Retin A?I always try to let the Retin A do its work, meaning I put it on bare skin and only if need be I put on a moisturizer or oil hours later.
One interesting thing I recently read is there shouldn‘t be more than 72h between applications of Retin A since the skin then has to start a new retinazation process every time.
And lastly I‘m very intrigued by the copper peptides but I didn‘t know how to incorporate them in my routines, since so far I‘m using vit C in the morning and Retin A at night and I‘m not willing to give up either one for a single day. Good job Claudia, as always very informative and I‘m very happy for your success. You so deserve it!
Hi Kay, thank you so much for watching and for your kind comment. I put my retin a on first (well really a stem factor first, but I ran out of it), and like you, let it do its thing for a couple of hours. Then I apply my C, moisturizer and sometimes oil.
I have heard about the 72 h window as well. That might well be, however, for me going slower seemed to do the trick.
I hope you are having a great day, keep me updated on how you like using the vitamin c at night

Hi Claudia, loved this...very informative. I wasn't sure about using retin a & vitamin c but I am going to give it a try. Have a wonderful day x
Hi Niamh, I am so glad this was helpful! Yes, definitely use your vitamin C with your vitamin a, they will work better together and help stabilize each other. Keep me updated on how it’s going with it. I hope you’re having a wonderful day as well

I’ve moved up to the Skinceuticals 1% Retinol serum and hope to be able to move up to Retin A soon. It’s done wonders for my skin.
Hi Sue, that is awesome to hear. I think if you go slow with the retin a, you will be fine and see even more benefits. You could continue to use the skinceuticals retinol on the days you are not using retin a, when you first start getting used to it.
Please keep us updated

Good morning beautiful Claudia ! so happy to watch this this morning as i drink my green tea and my face is tight and red after overdoing it with Tret lol ! i overdid it by cosmetic needling and using Tretinoin right after. I need to go slower. That being said i feel Tret is making my skin thicker and definitely has better texture. Love all the information you bring and the debunking the myths, especially the one about retinol wearing in the day and the people dying during the study..... So happy you spoke also about the research on skin cancer, this is one of the reasons i am using it because my dad has a history of skin cancer. Will share your video in my links on my channel. Sending you much love and hope you are well ! XXX

Hi Claudia ~ I love your channel! Have you ever read or studied up on the product Curology? If so, I would love to get your take on it. Thanks! Have a great day!
Hi Stacey, it is nice to hear from you. Yes, I have. I have not personally used it, but a friend of mine uses it and loves it. I think when we move from here, and I won't be able to get the retin a over the counter, I am going to use Curology as well. So if you are on the fence about it, I would definitely say give it a try. What's nice about is, is that you can add a couple of other active ingredients to your prescription, depending on your skin concerns. I hope this helps. Please keep me updated if you start using it.

@@malidav5724 yes, that is tretenoin. Unfortunately I can not find the strength in any of the information, but if you can get tretenoin in Australia, that is what you want. If you have different strength, I would start with 0.02, than go to 0.05 if you have no irritation
I hope this helps
Please let me know if you have more questions, and if you end up using it, please keep me updated
@@claudiaglows thanks alot
In what order and what products you apply in the evening? Very helpfull video, thank you !
Hi Donna, lovely to hear from you. I actually have an evening skin care routine video, which might be helpful. However in that video I was not using vitamin C at night yet. So what I do, I either use a stem factor (or I don’t right now, since I’m out of it,), then my Retin-A. If I have time I will let my Retin-A absorb for a couple of hours, before I put on the rest of my skin care. So then I will apply divider Minsi, my moisturizer and or an oil. You could put your vitamin C on first, and then your Retin-A. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have anymore questions. Wishing you a wonderful day

Thank you Claudia for this great video! What is your take on strength? I am at 0.05% and not sure if I should try to go higher. I am going to have to look at copper peptide more. I had ruled them out because they cannot be used with tretinoin and I didn't know I could use my vit C with my tretinoin. I'll also have to go back and see what vit C product you use. Thank you.
Hi Santina, lovely to hear from you. You know, I think that if 0.05% works for you, it is a good strength. Most studies are actually done with that strength, and more is not always better. And yes, take another look at copper peptides. I am really loving them. And no matter what form of vitamin c you use, you can still use it with your retin a. The caution was just if one is going through retinization
Please keep me updated
Wishing you a wonderful day

Thanjs Claudia x
I really enjoy your videos thank you so much. I am using Retin-A every night .01. I believe that’s the strongest. Is that the right thing to continue.? Do I need to add something in the day?
Hi Joy, I am happy to hear you are enjoying the videos. Yes, the retin a 0.1 is the strongest, unless you to to something like Curology, where they can tirate further up. But I do not believe it is necessary to go higher. Are you using an antioxidant during the day, such as vitamin c? If not, I would add an antioxidant of your choice.
And of course, sunscreen ;)
I hope this helps, please do not hesitate to ask more questions

Thanks for the info. What about nano particles in sunscreen I heard they turn into free radicals on the skin and do more damage in the long term than helping with aging? Thanks
Hi Megan, it is lovely to hear from you. You know, I will have to do some more research on that. As far as I know the concern with nano particles is them being small enough to be absorbed into places where we don’t want them. They are also horrible for the coral reefs. But I have honestly not heard about them causing free radical damage, so I definitely will do some more research on that one. Thank you so much for for bringing this to my attention.

Thanks for all this Information. But I'm still confused what exactly I should try. Could you please recommend what to use and where I can get it in Europe, you talked about 5%. Which ingredience I have to look for? With lots of greetings from Germany!
Hi Britta, it is lovely to hear from you. I’m sorry if this is so confusing. So I am using 0.05% Tretenoin. Here in Italy I can get it over the counter. However I know that in Germany you need a script for it. So you could ask your dermatologist to prescribe it for you. I believe you also have 0.05% in Germany. If you cannot get tretinoin, the next best thing would be retinaldehyde. I am not certain what percentage you can get in Germany, but I would start at the lowest and work your way up. If you cannot find that, then you would use retinol. My friend in Germany just told me that she saw a 2% retinol in her pharmacy. So that would be a good strength, or you can start with less and work your way up. I hope this helps, please let me know if you have more questions, and also keep me updated. Wishing you a wonderful day, sending a big hug to Germany

I will never be without my RetinA ever!!
Me either, Paulette ❤️
My dermatologist has prescribed me the chemo cream for AK and after watching this video, I’ve decided I’m not going to use it. I already have tretinoin, but I stopped using it and I basically just been using an over-the-counter one by Avene.
My anxiety grew when I watched all the videos, seeing the red faces and inflammation from the chemo cream. Worst case scenario I may just have them freeze it off because it’s mainly just one spot on my cheek and then continue the retinoids. I could try the chemo cream just on the one spot, but I figure what’s the point in doing that when I should probably use it over my entire face to get the full benefit. Either way I’m worried about using the chemo cream so I’m going to try and alternative method. Thank you.
Hey liz, I felt the exact same way about the chemo cream. It just has such dramatic downtime. And as you said, you already have Tretinoin , why not try that. Please keep me posted.

Wow this is great sharing, Claudia. Wish I could give you 100 likes. May I know if you still apply Retin-A to your skin after microneedling now? I watched in a video that you do. I am wondering what is good to use after MN. I have been using this Dermaceutic's K-Ceutic and it is really expensive and it has in-built SPF but I usually do MN only at night and don't need SPF before sleeping haha.
Hi Amelia, thank you for your sweet comment
I have used the Retin a a few times after MN, but it does cause a bit of discomfort, and lately o am just not wanting to deal with the discomfort
So I use NeoGenesis Recovery with MN and after. It is a stem cell serum and I love it. Expensive as well, but a little goes a long way
@@claudiaglows Oh stem cells...ok. Have you heard of argireline? It is said that it helps with wrinkles but Penn.Smith says the molecules are too big to penetrate. I wonder if we can use it after MN and help it penetrate better, especially for crow feet areas that tend to have wrinkles.
@@Dandelion_flight I have heard of it, but would be careful to use it with MN. You can however use us for cosmetic needling

Hi sweet Bilal, thank you❤️
Hello Claudia do I put vit c first or retina if using the same time. And does it differ if it’s vit c absorbic acid ? Thanks
Hi Suzy ❤️
I answered your under a different video. But as far as ascorbic acid, the form of vitamin c does not matter. Of it is oil based though, I would put the Retin a first

You are a wealth of knowledge, thank you. So, is Paula's Choice CLINICAL 1% Retinol Treatment weaker than the Differin Gel .1%. I'm thinking the Differin being a retinoid is stronger? But, I'm not sure...thanks for any help.
Hi Wendy, thank you for your lovely comment💕
So retionic acid is going to be the most powerful. Differin is retinoic acid. Paulas choice is retinol. Retinol has to go through 2 conversions to become retinoic acid. So the differin will be much more active, and stronger. But I have heard great things about Paulas choice retinol. It comes down to what your skin can handle. If you can handle the differin, I personally would go for that one.
I hope this helps. Please let me know

@@claudiaglows Thank you, Claudia, for your time in responding! I have asked this question on multiple platforms and you are the only one to respond! And you've explained in an understandable manner. I get it now, lol. My super sensitive, combo skin has responded very well to Differin at age 53. I was using Retin-A on my face, as well as arms, but my arms were becoming red and itchy, so I'm mixing a small amount of Differin into my lotion to apply to arms. And it spreads so nicely. I'd love to see a video/or recommendation if you use actives on your body/arms.

Hallo Claudia, danke für das Video! Mit Retinoic Acids habe ich mich noch nicht befasst. Aber ich würde es gerne mal ausprobieren. Was genau verwendest du? Und bekomme ich das problemlos in Deutschland?
Hallo Sylvia, schön von dir zu hören!
I benutzte tretenoin. Du kannst das in Deutschland auch bekommen, 0.05% tretenoin, aber du brauchst dafür ein Rezept vom Hautarzt.
Dann kannst du es billig in der Apotheke holen.
Aber du könntest mit Retinol anfangen. In Deutschland gibt es ja auch die Ordinary, die haben ein Retinol. Und du kannst auch of in the Apotheke Retinol finden.
Ich hoffe das hilft. Bitte sag mir ob du mehr fragen hast

just watched this great video. I wonder if you are familiar with ‘the truth treatment system regional 5% gel’ ? and if you are, what you feel about this product. I think it is very good, but am always striving to find the best retinol for my skin. i am soon out of this and wonder what’s your very best recommendation for best retinol ish product? is it the one you get from the prescription? cause i have understood right, that that’s what you are using? 😃
Hi Marianne, yes, I am very familiar with truth treatment products, and love them. I actually have a sample of the retinol right now, which I’m using on my neck. The only reason I don’t buy much from the brand, is that they use lanolin in a lot of their formulations. But, I think it’s an excellent brand and I think that everything they have is amazing. As far as the best retinoid, that really depends on your skin. I would say if you can handle Retin-A, which is the prescription kind, and the one I use, then in my opinion that’s the best. If you cannot get a prescription, I can’t handle it, I think that the truth treatments retinol is a great option. I hope this helps, please keep me updated, sending a big hug your way
@@claudiaglows ok, so i got my prescription tretinoin 0,5% , called Retirides 0,5% .
How can i integrate this into my rutine? I do already use the truth treatment around 4 times a week. can i just start by swapping out one of the days with my new 0,5% ? or would it be no good to use them both in the same week?
@@marianneokvalvik yay! Yes, I would try that. Maybe use the TT twice a week, and the prescription 1 x, a day or two away from the TT. Try that for 1 months and then increase
Please keep me posted
@@claudiaglows Great, thank you. What is your take on a rest days? The truth treatment people say it’s extremely important to have a rest days during the week and Max use five times a week. Is this not the same with the prescription?
Hi Claudia, do you have any concerns regarding the VATTC study that showed increased mortality rates among veterans who used tretinoin? Why or why not? Thank you.
Hi Darius, I honestly do not have any concerns about the study. It was never duplicated and had some real flaws. There are countless studies showing the efficacy and safety of tretenoin, I really think the veterans study was a fluke.

Dear sweet Claudia, I just love watching you but am having an awful time of hearing you clearly. You sound as though you are in an echo chamber & very tinny & hard to understand. I don't have that problem with anyone else, like Hot& flashy or even Tamara, or anyone else. I really think it's your audio system, & pray that you can resolve the issue, because whether I listen to you on my computer or T.V., it's just difficult to understand you because of the acoustics. It sounds as though you are in an empty house & the voice is bouncing off the walls I'm sorry to be the bearer of bad news, but I do struggle to her you & that's such a bummer. Bless you, Honey!!! P.S. Check out the video on Sept. 22, 2020, where you were in a different room of your house & the clarity & echo is soooo much better.
Sweet Valentia, thank you so much for your kind comment and your great feedback. I am sorry you are having a hard time hearing me. It’s our house. I have the door of my room open, to help some with the echo, but it does not help too much. I will try to play around with a different microphone, and see if that helps. If not, rest assured we are moving soon 😊
I really appreciate your kind feedback and will do my best to fix the echo

@@claudiaglows You are truly an inspiration to so many people including me, but I did scroll through some of your other videos & the one in your bathroom sounds so much better. I'm sorry but I just don't want to lose you!!!!! Thank you so much! Bless your big heart!!!!

I will try a different mic, and hopefully that will help.
