it can make your skin peel when you first start.


you are supposed to put the tretin on and then moisturizer over top of it, do it over night. and maybe a few times a week at first.

How can I get my doctor to prescribe me this even though I’m 24? Do you think he’d just give me a prescription if I said I wanted it to prevent aging?

Just say you want it to make your skin look better. I don't think aging is a good enough reason tbh. I have hyperpigmentation pretty bad so it's easy for me to get it from a dermatologist. But I feel like if you come up with a reason why you want to use it(skin related issue) they will give it to you.

I have good skin, I just want to avoid aging as much as possible. I guess I’ll just say I want it to improve skin quality even further, because I heard it’s a good product and the anti-aging benefits are a bonus.

Once you get it don't forget to use sunscreen boyo. If Derms don't give it to you can always order online either way but I feel safer going through a Derm

TretinionGANG checking in

I was introduced to that by the MISC years back and have been using it since. GOAT product

Another one is bimatoprost (the ingredient of Latisse). it’s CHEAP as hell compared to the brand despite being the exact same ingredient and concentration LMAO. Chicks use it fr their eyelids, but you can use it for your eyebrows

this enhances dat dere gaze srs

that’s 100% true. Over the counter I use Neutrogena Hydroboost SPF 50. It’s not heavy on the skin and doesn’t have that nasty ass smell

You can get a perscription for acne. It works for all sorts of skin issues.

I really like this one - I think it shows what's realistically possible.

Retinoids refers to all products that fall in the retinoid drug family, including tretinoin, adapalene (Differin brand), and others.

Retinol is a weak retinoid that is available over the counter in most places as a cosmeceutical ingredient.

Tretinoin is a stronger retinoid that is prescription-only in many places and over the counter in others. It is a medication. You can get a prescription from a dermatologist Telehealth appointment through something like Curology, depending on your state.

All retinoids help with acne, stronger ones usually work faster and more effectively, but come with a greater chance of irritation.

Vitamin C serum, Tretinoin and SPF 50 sunscreen moistrizer checking in.

Can confirm this chit is legit. Even though I never looked old or had wrinkles, I had acne scars with quite dull looking skin in the past.

Been using Vitamin C and sunscreen for the past year but only tret for 2-3 months now. So far my skin texture has improved dramatically, scars are fading and skin is glowy AF.

Use Vitamin C in morning, sunscreen whenever I leave the house amd tret at night before bed with a moustrizer afterwards.

I have Aklief which has trifarotene, would this work the same?? I stopped using it often because it cause irritation and peeling skin.

I have been using a lotion with 10% glycolic acid, would that work as well?

You have to be careful as it can thin your skin as you age.

I have a contact in Mexico that owns a pharmacy. I can look into this and see how much it costs. If you're interested in this product, PM me and I'll get you on my list.

It'll probably be the actual Retin-A product as well.

I use the same brand of Tretinoin. Do you order yours from India or can you get it in the UK?

I ordered a pack of 6 about a year and a half ago from ReliablePharmacy and still only used 2 and a half

I've been using it nightly for several months now and at the very least my face doesn't look worse. Many days looks better.

I had been using 0.025% until I finished two tubes (which takes a while to finish) then switched to 0.05% recently. I've been out in the hot summer sun once or twice without sunscreen and got red-faced for only a little while. No sunburn but still yeah something to keep and eye on. I just wonder if maybe I should get to the strong stuff asap and just work with that. I still have a small stock if 0.05% tubes to go through though...

By the way if you want to get some without a prescription you can go to reliable are ex pharmacy dot com. When it asks for a prescription just leave it blank. Be forewarned it's a ****** company and it takes at least a month to show up on your doorstep
