Is there any point in skincare?

If you don’t have acne I currently don’t do jack for skincare but I don’t typically get acne so is it even worth the trouble? I’m trying to looksmax

There is, but what 99% of skincare “gurus” won’t tell you is that 80% of skin care is retinoids (Tretnoin) and diet/sleep/lifestyle.

Most skincare chit like masks and acids and vitamins and clays are all BS.

I definitely notice a difference. Especially washing face with an exfoliating soap over regular soap. Moisturizing everyday also makes you way less dry.

yep need a prescription

I get mine from Curology. Just take some photos of ur face and they send u a special formula. Most formulas have tret but I don't think it's guaranteed, not sure on this.

Curology is affordable but u could prob get it cheaper if u find an affordable dermatologist.

In terms of results, I had bad sun damage from 4 years of lifeguarding in college, never put on sunscreen like a retard. Tried so much dumb products, all of them barely made a difference. I'm 3 months on Tret and legit 80% of my skin damage is gone.

You can also get a milder version of tretnoin over the counter called adapalene. Works great on acne, blackheads, and enlarged pores.

Tret is great for aging though.

Nah it’s kinda lame

It’s funny the more people worry about aging and doing everything they can they just barely look better than someone who doesn’t

This guy takes everything regarding health food product seriously

Nah

Not a knock on Bobby

Same. Now I get to wear 100 spf to go outside with no significant sun exposure.

Most damage happens before you're 18, I was the Karen slabbering my kids faces with sunscreen before soccer and baseball games, they'll thank me later.
Don't put that on me Ricky Bobby, don't you ever put that on me.

Interesting.

I assume dutasteride also helps because DHT acts on the skin a lot.

Not to say masculine sex differentiation is the worst look.

Retinoids are ointments that accelerate collagen production. They don’t affect your hormones.

You don't need to do much other than keep areas that touches your face clean(bedsheets/pillows etc) and wash your face/moisturize. Clean, acne free skin shows what real skin looks like instead of putting on makeup. You want to look like a real person when you go outside.
