Hello my rose petals 🌹 Let’s look at some amazing Retinoids for beginners today!🥳
Here are few important things to remember about Retinoids:
>> Don’t use any other active in the first few days of using Retinoids.
>> Use a pH-balanced cream cleanser which is super gentle on the skin.
>> >> Use occlusive-based moisturizers and oils to combat the dryness.
>> Use with Niacinamide. It helps minimize the irritation and increases skin’s tolerance towards retinoids.
>> Use a broad-spectrum SPF (minimum SPF 30) as this bad boy is notorious for increasing sun sensitivity. Remember not protecting the skin while using retinoids can be more harmful than beneficial. 🌞
>> Purging is most common with Retinol. Be patient and give it time. It should get better by 8th week.
>> Don’t expect overnight results. It takes anywhere from 3-6 months to see the improvement in acne and fine lines.
