This is a good sign! It means your skin barrier is restoring itself and will look gorg soon, so don’t give up! The peeling/purge is sooo disheartening but it’s worth it 👊🏽 take it from me who also struggled with this same thing 🥲

Trop belle 🤩

Ugh, that sucks I'm so sorry that this happened. Dealing with acne is so difficult, and you're already putting in so much effort to fix one issue and for another one to arise....it can feel so defeating. I just wanted to let you know that you're not alone in this and that you have so much courage to even post your journey because they're so educational. I'm a woman of color as well and II too experience this same reaction. Obviously speak to your dermatologist and choose what's right for you but a lot of the literature is not tailored to people of color, and what just might cause "irritation and redness" in non-melanated skin can have long-lasting effects on us (I'm not a doctor yet but a us medical student very interested in dermatology/read a lot of medical research papers). I've been playing duck duck goose with multiple vitamin A prescriptions (like tazarotene 0.1 cream, the generic non-micronized of your prescription. I remember my skin starting to peel and feeling the need to pick/peel the dead skin off. Knowing what I know now that was a huge mistake and it ended up doing more harm than good. My non-irritated skin seemed glowy and I thought I needed to peel off the skin in the irritated areas to reveal more glow, but in reality that skin is very sensitive/not ready to peel off. And any kind of aching/burning/stinging feeling is a sign of irritation and in people of color we can't afford that because iit almost 100% of the time will lead to hyperpigmentation. Light flaking is ok, but redness is not. Also very important not to pick anything. I believe I developed darker pigmentation on my temples and forehead that I'm now doing chemical peels to start to fade. I'm going a lot more gentler and slower now with tret, after realizing how easy it is to cause damage in POC. Personally, I would lay off the Arazlo until your skin is no longer sensitive and go the low and slow route that a lot of people talk about on here. I love seeing your content and I just wanted to let you know you're not alone, and that it does get better. But don't necessarily let it get too "bad" because our skin hyperpigments like a motherfu**er lol

Saçı güzel oldu 😊😊😊😊

So how long the curly stays? Please do a tutorial video short. Btw, love your hair! It looks so pretty and shiny ❤

are you still on it?

It's criminal that your dermatologist didn't instruct you to use the "sandwich" method with Arazlo: moisturize, give that time to absorb, then Arazlo, let it absorb, then moisturize again. Also if your skin is still sensitive, it's ok to use it less frequently, and to build up slowly. Consistency is more important than frequency when it comes to retinoids.

Hey Tanarah, this video was extremely helpful as I am someone who struggles with acne as well. I dealt with acne all through highschool, my first year of college I went on accutane for 6 months, got results, life was great, then in the past 3 months my skin has gotten extremely worse. It feels like I'm breaking out everyday. Right now I use benzoyl peroxide which sorta works but not really, apparently you have to do skincare for like 6-8 weeks for results to actually show, so I guess that will come with time. Anyways, I watched a few other videos about diet, how carbs and milk act as inflammatories. I cut them out for a bit (paleo/keto diet) and I did see results, but the hardest part is consistency which can be expensive because I'm extremely broke lol, so i resorted back to eating mediocre and doing skincare. If you have the funds maybe look into that, if you've already tried it and it didn't work then I guess me typing this is pointless. Also, your dreams of modelling - don't ever let that die. Best of luck on your skincare journey I hope everything works out :)

Girly yesss my acne is leaving me with really dark spots 😢i think im quitting on it

Love this routine❤❤😊😊😊

hey ! did you purge a lot on arazlo ? i’m 2 months in and my skin seems to be breaking out more than before i used it. Is this normal ?

My dermatologist strictly advised against using any moisturizer. That’s probably why I was peeling so bad from it !

What’s the sunscreen you use?

You're gorgeous ❤

From kbeauty brands : Skin1004 probio cica enrich cream 😉or Real barrier extreme cream and also from Round lab the soybean nourishing cream.

Who ever suggested moisture before applying Arazlo.. 🎉 Glad it's working out. I've been on Arazlo (tazarotene) Lotion, 0.045% for 4 years.

Have you tried azelaic acid? The prescription, Finacea, is 15%. I believe it can be applied before Arazlo (let it dry completely) in the same routine, or in the morning as well. It should help with scars, hyperpigmentation and texture…I’m also trying this out. I was working with tret for my acne and scars but am now going to work with a combo of arazlo and AA instead…hopefully it gets better for you!

but in a other vid u said u had oily skin?

ur so pretty

It makes your eyelashes pop, very pretty

Why the hell would you use an harsh abrasive brush while peeling?! 🤦‍♀️

Have you tried a lip oil called strawberry shortcake? I got my strawberry shortcake lip oil from this store in the mall called boxlunch and I got it for my bday from my sis and I love it 🩵💜💙💞❤️💗🩶🩷💚💓⭐💖🧡💛🤍🖤💕🤎🫶🏼

You look stunning! Absolutely beautiful. 🙌

Do you put arazlo immediately after washing your face ? I noticed that when I wash my face then put moisturizer, wait for it to dry (5min ish) before applying arazlo, the peeling is not bad at all

Your positivity and bright attitude is awesome, I struggle with bad cystic acne and I can definitely relate. Your complexion is beautiful <3

Lol

Great!, I had my last pimple age 28, so hopefully you won't need it your entire life! :)

Get moroccan Nila powder! its like blue powder thats meant to brighten skin,Mix it with some yogurt n use it as a mask. Hope this helps!

U seem sweet ❤

Hi! ☺️ This is common with using a retinol! Make sure to moisturize to help combat the dryness:) I’m on accutane so I understand the journey. Remember you are beautiful inside and out!

Stop you’re actually soooo pretty I use niacinamide to help with texture and I found that any kind of kbeauty makes my skin very glowy

Vit c

Mandelic acid

I think your best bet is to just moisturize deeply and wear sun protection!

wow 😮u are so beautiful

Follow for a follow?

Thank you so so so much for documenting your journey- I’m 13 and just got prescribed Arazlo. I’m only two days in but regardless it feels nice knowing there are other people with my struggles (coming from a former tretinoin patient) that’s it!! Love your content ❤

Get tretinoin or if you can’t see a dermatologist get retinol. Use it for 6 months to see results. Look into it

Thanks great choice make up free 🥰 never been one for wearing make up probably because I don’t know how to put it on 55 now don’t see the need for it but I will say I do not look 55 look quite a bit younger🤭

Keep it up In believe u

Hello beautiful ❤❤❤

Vanicream moisturizing cream is so amazing if you’re using arazlo! Also waiting 20 minutes after you wash your face and apply your moisturizer to put on the arazlo helps a lot. The sandwich method is super helpful (moisturizer, then use Arazlo, then put another layer of moisturizer on)

I think you should just let arazlo do its thing bc you don’t want to irritate the skin using more products than necessary. Try using a CICA moisturizer if you can find one!

You should try Korean moisturizers such as Aestura, Soo Jung. Naturium also has a good moisturizer as well, Barrier Bounce is good as well. Best of luck

How it going now?

You are so beautiful ❤

Use diaper rash cream if your skin is burning. Do face basting for healing skin barrier.
