Omg. In a sea of doctors and influencer that just push crap and give conflicting advice ur a lighthouse of real helpful information! Thank u
This was excellent! Just what I needed. Thank you for making a genuine education video with no sponsorship! Much appreciated!
You are welcome! Many of the things I discuss in my videos are the same spiels I recite over and over in my private practice, one-on-one with my patients. I figured why not record them and share them with the world! Glad you find it helpful :)
@@TheBudgetDermatologist hi can I use a petrolatum based moisturizer before the adapalene? Would it still penetrate? Love the video!
I really appreciate the professionals who make time to educate us freely on social media like this 🙌 despite their hectic schedules. You're really helping doc ❤
This is the best retinol video ever. No fuss and easy to understand
Finally someone explained it so I can understand.Thank you so much.Subscribed today!
This is a fantastic informative video in a way that is understandable. Fantastic!!!!!!
I apply my homemade hyaluronic serum before and after applying tretinoin 0.1% my skin feels and looks tighter. I'm also taking some supplements. it helps when you do both external and internal.
Thank you
Wasn't it you who I saw that gets a retinol through the mail? It wasfull strength. I keep trying the OTC ones and need stronger.. I've never had any side effects from the ones I've tried
I just recently started watching your videos. I find them very informative and useful! Thank you. I was wondering about Avon products? If you’re familiar with them and have an opinion about them.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge! Do you have a video that talks about alternatives for women who’s trying to get pregnant/is pregnant/breastfeeding yet? That would be so helpful 😊
I am working on that video now. Stay tuned! Thanks for the suggestion.
Backuchiol
So glad I found this video. It's really easy to understand ❤️❤️😊
Hell Dr
Im new to this field. I got your night routine 1. Cleansing 2. Retinoid 3. Moisturizer. But I didn’t catch your day routine. Would you mind sharing yours? Thanks
I just found your channel and can't stop watching...😉
Such great info!💯
Thanks for all your info could your recommendations for CRUELTY FREE anti-aging products?
Paula's Choice is cruelty free and has GREAT anti-aging products.
I came to this video because I wanted to know what kind of retinol is absorica retinal, now I understand what retinaldehyde is, and absorica is very affordable compared to other brands.
Wow this video was so helpful. Im new to this retinoid treatment and appreciate the tips. So much science explained and it was very clear to follow. Can you share what you do for your skin? Do you use other treatments other than retinoid? Thanks so much
This was very helpful. Tyvm. I've only just added skincare in the past couple of months. Started slowly bc sometimes my face will break out from products. (especially moisturizer). I had the Kiehls microdose one on my Sephora list already. Retenoid will be the next thing I add. The Kiehls is a bit $$ but sounds perfect.
If I chose to be more budget conscious, after watching this I'm torn between the Olay 24 & the Roc you showed. You mentioned tho that the Roc doesn't have the strength listed? How strong would you say it is in comparison to the Olay?
Please at what age should a lady start using the retinol products?
Nice video 👌💕 thanks for sharing 🙌💟
😍😘🥰 Thank yoouu so much this is so informative!
Thank you so much for this video! Wow what a relief it was to hear that i only need two/3 products and many other super helpful things I did not know and which helped me avoid some
Mistakes I would certainly made if I hadnt watched this.
I have a question - have you heard about medik 8 retinal? It seems to have simillar active ingredients as Avene. It is more expensive though.
So if I use Avene - is this my retinal and moisturizer in one? So i dont need to use any othet cream afterwards? And if i decide to use prescription tetinoids- could you recommend any moisturizer ?
Im 37 and currently using retinol 0,03 and my skin tolerates it perfectly. Im planning to go up to 0.1 avene or medik 8 but im worried that in 10-15 years i wont have anything to offer to my skin? If im already using the best possible anti- aging products. If my skin gets used to it, how can i treat it later? Are my worries justified?
I will be very grateful for your reply!
Thank you! Do you know Biretix Gel? It s available over the counter in Germany. It seems that it s high potent but safe! Don t know if it s available in the USA
Hi Doc. My face sweats everytime i put tret cream. Will it affect the efficacy of tret? Thanks
I needed this thank you. I'm new to this turning 40 next month. So I want to continue to look youthful. I had no idea. I'm definitely using it all wrong
Can COPPER PEPTIDES be combined with TRETINOIN? I don't have sensitive skin.
Could you please share your thoughts with us on this element of the video
I hear from reliable sources that adapalene/differin only bonds with 2/3 receptors and therefore has not yet proven its efficacy on skin aging even though the data is positive for acne
Thankyou kindly
Can I use tretinoin and retinol on alternate days?
Can Retinoids with niacinamide ?
do we apply it all over and avoid eyes
Straightforward simple approach to the budget skin care. Pls don’t stop making videos. They are incredibly helpful for people who don’t wanna waste lids of money on skin care. Tysm. Love from India!
What a nice comment! That is my goal. I love to teach people how you can get healthy skin without spending a fortune. Thanks for watching!
Very informative..i will follow the steps
Thank you for this very helpful information and content! Quick question- a group you have mentioned not use was those who are trying to get pregnant. Does this include those who is not currently trying to get pregnant, but planning to? Thank you in advance
Ll
Pls suggest a good moisturizer for oily skin along with tretinoin 0.025
I LOVE seeing legit Dermatologists popping up on UA-cam!
What would you do if you found out she was really a pastry chef?? 🤣🤣
Please tell me I'm not the only one enthusiastically taking notes from these videos. Because:
1. They're interesting & practical info
2. They're well structured
3. They're easy to understand
4. I'm a nerd lol
Love your content! Stay amazing~
Thanks so much!! It takes a lot of time to turn these topics into easy-to-understand videos. I’m so glad it’s helpful! Thanks for watching :)
Definitely taking notes!
Here here 😉
I am too!
Taking notes and replaying many times over
Please do a video on The Ordinary's products! Love your videos!
I love how you are making this clear and simple. Would like to see a video about shampoo and conditioner. I have a very sensitive scalp and would really benefit from your advice. Product recommendations, etc.
Great recommendations! Thanks for watching and the kind feedback!
I highly recommend Klorane hair products. I have sensitive scalp and this brand took away all the itchy sensation that all the high end brands could not do it. Check us.lookfantastic.com, they carry several options of Klorane hair products (small presentations to try them), you can also find some of them at Ulta. I hope it helps, works for me.
Yes!! Including frequency of washing. How to help oily hair!
Iuu8y8y8y< said yy78y up] says you i 8m
Me too Doctor plsssss🙏🏻 I’m very sensitive to shampoo and conditioner. I get seborrheic dermatitis...pls list the ingredients I have to avoid. Thank you in advance! And I love your videos!!!🥰 stay safe❤️
My new fav dermatology channel 🥰
That’s awesome! Thanks so much
@@TheBudgetDermatologist We appreciate your practical tips. I changed my approach to skin care after I subscribed to your channel.
I have dry, eczema prone skin complicated by monthly hormonal pimples. I used to follow the Korean skin care fad of 8-10 steps. Which is time consuming, pricey, and I even ended up with more pimples and pimple marks.
Now, I am just following the basics:
AM:
Salicylic acid or Benzoyl Peroxide Cleanser (I use BP cleanser a week prior to my period).
Cerave AM moisturizer with spf 30
PM:
Micellar water to remove sunscreen
Cetaphil cleanser
Olay Retinol Serum
Cerave PM moisturizer
No more layering of toners, essences, emulsion, ampoules and masks.
You are absolutely correct that simpler routine works better: easier compliance and it delivers results. I managed my hormonal acne better with this approach.
Thank you so much!
Love and greetings from the Philippines! 💖
Same!!
Me too. I saw Dr Dray & did not like her videos at all. These videos I love. Doctor Locke is the BEST!
Absolutely! Same here ❤️
I’m so glad I discovered your channel! I really appreciate how in depth you go into each topic. Keep up the great work!
Thank you so much!
Thanks UA-cam Algorithm for bringing me here!
Your channel is awesome, it has helped me a lot already. Keep it up! :)
That’s so awesome. I’m glad you found my channel! Thanks for watching.
Thanks great information..
Question what pharmacy or Wal-Mart?
@ Elizabeth - Same here, she's wonderful.
You are so easy to understand and give such helpful advice. Never had a dermatologist explain any of this so well. Most derms just want to write prescription for you and get on with the next patient. Thankful for your help!
Thank you doctor! This is by far the best explanation of retinoids Ive come across. Question, are there any parts of the face we should avoid putting retinol? And, is 1% retinol ok to start with? ( i have the Paula's choice 1% retinol)
The eye area can be more sensitive so proceed with caution! I love Paula’s choice products. I generally recommend stating slowly to make sure the 1% isn’t too irritating. Thanks for watching!
Step 1: Is the retinoid right for you?
Step 2: Pick your retinoid product. Types; Prescribed and over the counter. (Consistency and strength) High concentration = more irritation.
Step 3: Put it in skincare properly (night with moisturiser, not with vitamin c and benzoyl peroxide)
Step 4: Start slowly (use once and wait for few days watching out for irritation/redness, then use three times a week and dont use too much)
Step 5: Be consistent.
Love it! Thanks for watching and commenting :)
Can the tretinoin penetrate moisturizer with petrolatum?
@@Print229 I have this same question!
Thank you
When I was upgrading from a .25 to 1.0 retinol (Skin Medica), my esthetician recommend doing 1 day for the first week, then 2 days in a row the 2nd week, etc, (ex. Saturday, then following Saturday & Sunday, then following Sat, Sun, Mon, etc) to help my skin get acclimated. It worked and I can now use it every night with no reaction.
I bought myself a Christmas gift -- a Retinoid! I found an affordable Retinaldehyde product online in the Avene line, it's called Woman Cleanance Night Smoothing Cream. I bought it from Caretobeauty for 22 US dollars. It's more affordable than Avene Retrinal. Maybe it has lower concentration of retinaldehyde. Just waiting for it to get delivered. My Olay Retinol 24 Serum bottle is almost empty and right now I feel more excited to try Retinaldehyde after watching this. Thanks @The Budget Dermatologist for the helpful tips 💖 and I really appreciate that you give us clear instructions on how to use retinoids.
Thanks so much for that recommendation. Let us know what you think of it!
Geek and gorgeous has a retinal of 0,5 %and 1%. It's a brand from Hungary.Greetings from Greece🇬🇷🇬🇷
Thanks for the tip!
I love how you simplify the routines! I used to use so many different products and it felt very overwhelming. Your videos are truly a blessing! 😁👍
Can you please do a morning and night time skin care routine for women in their 50s? So confused as to when to use product and in what order
Yes, please.
Thank you so much for slowly educating every point of this topic along with optional brand picks. Your tutorial was the easiest to navigate through this complex topic. I believe you have covered every basis and or concern I've had. ❤
Awesome!! I’m so glad to hear this. Thanks for watching.
I just started using a CeraVe retinoid serum to baby step in and am loving it, thanks for all this info!!! I wear tank tops a lot too, is the first Neutrogena one you showed ok to use on my chest some too?
I use it on my chest with no problem (& I tend to have sensitive skin)
@@Trainerlife8805 thanks, good to know :)
Thank you SO much for the tip about not using cerave with a retinoid! I was having trouble trying to start adapelene and switching out Cerave for Cetaphil lotion at night made a HUGE difference! I didn’t get any irritation for once.
Can you talk about Skincare brushes? Example: Clarisonic
They went out of business
Or foreo
she means in general not just clarisonic
@@mariejane1567 just mentioning it because I was surprised they did.
Brushes aren’t necessary and can cause irritation.
Use to watch Dr Dray. My dear friend recommended me to your channel. I love the way you explain things, so simple and no nonsense. For the first time I actually understand what my skin needs. Because I have followed your valuable and knowledgeable direction I have seen a huge difference. Thank you so very much!
Agree
@@mariyahc4562 Hi, I enjoy the way how the BD is really patient, her gentle approach and informative knowledge. Nothing personal against Dr Dray, I just prefer BD.
Please can I use glycerine the same night using retinoid?
@@mariyahc4562 - I enjoy Dr Dray very much but at times, I find her to be a little too long-winded. This vlog is precise & to the point, which I find to be way more helpful.
Thank you for these videos. My mother passed along generally good skin genes and my skincare routine has always been above-average but not always the best. I mostly used Lab Series and Clinique for Men once I was able to afford them but moved to drugstore brands as they've improved. Your videos help instill confidence in drugstore brands (although my dermatologist provides me with a prescription tretinoin solution), and your emphasis on consistency is comforting because I've been consistent for almost 40 years, beginning in my 20s. Being a mid-Boomer, having northern European/British Isles genes, and coming of age during the 60s and 70s and the "get that deep, dark, native tan" era, I did plenty of sun damage to my skin during my youth. My Navy career probably didn't help much and I'm also a life-long avid outdoors athlete. However, my facial complexion receives compliments, the most gratifying being along the lines of "You look like a person who spends a lot of time outdoors, but one who takes good care of his skin." A melanoma on my shoulders, back, or lower extremities isn't out of the question, and I'm 67 now and not far from getting on my final glideslope, but my arrival at the gate should be with a decent countenance. Thank you again!
Dear Dr, please make videos for us people of skin of colour. Lots of things that work for Caucasian skin tones don't seem to work for many of us. I'm not a Dermatologist myself. As a medical student I was not bright enough to be able to enter my much desired and loved competitive specialty Dermatology. Yet, I have a lot of patients asking me lots of questions that I don't have training and wisdom about. I recommend and refer them to your UA-cam videos, because I am a fan of yours because you are honest, sincere, dignified, respectful, budget friendly and very understanding and approachable to whom our general public can relate to easily. 🙏
Check out Dr. V and Dr. Alexis Stephens. Both channels focus exclusively on skin of color.
I dont really care about skincare but wanted to up my game since after looking closely at my skin one day I realized how uneven and discolored it looks after dealing with acne and sun exposure for several years. I always research before I buy anything and usually go through multiple sources and I have to say you have made learning about skincare and the best products to use so easy. You seem so genuine and knowledgable and your videos are so simple and easy to understand. Thank you so much for your videos and I cant wait to see how far this channel goes. You are saving a lot of the males out there who are clueless about skincare like me!
This is the first time I've heard a derm recommend the OTC versions which is great because its a great way to desensitise your skin and work up to tretanoin. I didn't do this, but can see the reasoning. If you are really sensitive, and think you might react, having a 1cm patch of extremely irritated skin is much easier to manage than your whole face, so start with a test patch. I learned this after being prescribed tretanoin over 50 years from the age of 9 (back then it was an oil). Over the years, each time I had to see a derm for rosacea or cystic acne, it would be prescribed again. I was never successful, couldn't get past the first application. More recently, a GP prescribed it for "anti-aging". Now, thanks to UA-cam and all the support groups on social media and also COVID lockdown, I summonsed the courage to try again, this time starting with a test spot the size of my finger on the right side of my face and used it as advised (once a week for the first month, then twice a week for the next month, then three times etc). Incredibly, it worked like it was supposed to, eventually not being so reactive. That gave me the confidence to start a spot on the left hand side, and repeat the process.
The marvellous thing about tretanoin is that it travels, so a finger sized spot actually is double that size due to the product travelling. Slowly, the treatment area was expanded in ever widening circles, the immediate skin around it was already semi-adjusted, so it didn't take as long for that area, then the next. It probably took about 6 months in all to be able to tolerate it. Even now after another twelve months, I am still on only 3 times a week, although sometimes I might give it a rev up on the weekends applying it twice in a row.
Thank you for the easy way to understand retinoids/retinols! Would I be able to use the Olay retinol max, since I have Milia? Or would you suggest another product for my dry, mature and Milia prone skin?
love this vid! so informative ✨✨✨
Glad you liked it!! Thanks so much for watching and for the kind comment!
More people need to discover your channel! Great content ty! ❤️
So nice of you! Thanks for watching 🙌
I was getting deep cyst like acne. Like just one deep bump under my skin. My Dermatologist gave me the vague answer that these were most likely caused by "anti-aging products". I generally do not have acne and I have very dry skin. (not a skincare Doctor but for my annual skin cancer screening). I am still not sure what ingredient he was referring to but I have stopped all of my "anti-aging" products. I will try your advice here and start one of these items slowly. Thank You.
How about in a eye cream? Should this be applied on dry skin or after a serum has fully absorbed and dried on the skin?
What about using aha moisturizer in the AM after using a retinol at night?
I think you’d better use aha moiturizor the other day. For exampl you use retinoid on mon/wed/fri PM. Then aha moisturizor on tue/thu/sat am becoz aha is form of acid in moisturizor cream for removing dead skins. Shall not use acid in am & retinoid in pm same day. Its too much for your skin.
Thank you Dr. for the great content! I love how thorough your videos are. Can someone with rosacea benefit from using a retinol?
Retinoids can be very irritating for rosacea skin. The product choice is very important. I always recommend getting this sorted out by a dermatologist. Great question and thanks for watching!
Hi! The Olay24 contains DMDM Hydantoin which is a formaldehyde releaser, a known carcinogen. Can you please comments on your thoughts on using this ingredient on your skin??!!! Or please educate us on whether it is safe, or not? Thank you so much.
Hearing that it only needs to be applied 3-5 nights a week eventually is a huge relief! I'll be starting my surgery rotation soon and I feel there will be some nights I'm going to just want to come home and knock out! Thank you so much!
Can I use Cerave Vit C in the morning and Olay or Nutregena Retnoid at night?
Sure, that is what Dr Locke said in the video
Thanks for the video!! Greetings from Alexandria Egypt :)
You are welcome! Thanks for watching :)
Is it okay to use CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser and then follow with use CeraVe Retinol Serum with? I know you mentioned in another video not to mix products with Hyaluronic Acid.
I would LOVE derm approved makeup or just your personal favorite makeup! It’s always so beautiful
That’s so kind of you!!
Hi ma'am love from india.dr. ! I used Ratino A for 1year.and my face darkened.i apply sunscreen daily.why it happened? please answer.
Start early ladies. The earlier the better but in the USA a determatologist will NOT give you a prescription unless you’re old and showing real wrinkles. I went to Mexico and saw a dermatologist paid like 40 bucks for the consultation each retinol tube was like 10 bucks. No prescription needed either. Oh and I enjoyed a vacation too. go Mexico 🇲🇽
I would love a video on tazarotene! I feel like theirs so much info out there about adapalene and tretinoin, but almost nothing on tazarotene. I use tazarotene cream 0.1% everynight and it works so well for my acne but I actually don't know much about it. I would love to know more about it and how it works, and im sure others would to!
Hi! in my country these products with retinoids are not available. Only from the brand indees lab and the ordinary. Do you advise the retinoids of these brands? if so which ones? Thank you!
Thank you for this easy and affordable skin routine help! I usually just stare at all the drug store products for 20 minutes and walk away with nothing. Now I have compiled my list and I am heading back to shop with total confidence and education!! Yay👏
Great video..should I wash my face in the morning then apply vitamin C, being that I used the retinol night before
Can you advise of what your thoughts are on No7 - advanced retinol 1.5% complex. I recently just purchased it but have not started it yet.
If I use the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair should I use it two times a day per the instructions? I use Vit C during the day and I thought you should not use Vit C and Retinol at the same time.
I wasted sooo many hours trying to watch videos and figure out a routine for the ordinary line. I have gotten so much wonderful information for products with research to back them. Thank you!!!!
Hello Dr. Maren. Since Im a beginner using this Tretinoin products , what should I use during 3 days while waiting ? And Is Vit C ok to use during the day while using tretinoin at night?
So glad you mentioned the applying moisturizer to damp skin, then retinoid option. I have dry skin & rosacea (thus super easily dehydrated bc of barrier defect) and this is the only way I was able to hack adapalene. And it was life changing! Love retinoids so much. Wonderful video!
I love this comment! So glad you found something that worked for you!
3:30 how do the retinols transform to retnoid acid form? You say they need to undergo chemical changes.. is this something I need to do with multiple products or does it happen in its own as it’s on my skin?
Thank you! I’ve used retinol for about 6 mos but had some redness and irritation. My problem was putting it on right out of the shower. Much better now that I wait 10-15 minutes.
Dr Dray said in one video that Retinoids does not make skin more sensitive to the sun. That do not increase the risk of sunburn.
Well, I use 0,05 Tretinoin and I do fell my skin more sensitive to sun, to hot and cold temperatures as well.
What your thoughts on Tretinoin during summer time. My Dermatologist don't let me do it. Would you??
This was so incredibly helpful and clear. thank you! I am planning to start with the Neutrogena Rapid Wrinkle Repair you recommended above. i'm 52 and have sensitive skin. During the initiation phase when I will start using it just x1 a week initially, do I need to be more careful with other serums/actives I might use on the other nights of the week? thank you!
Yes, what I see often is that if someone is getting irritated from the retinoid, it may be due to other irritating products they are using as well. So sometimes it is better to simplify the routine while adding in the retinoid until well established and then layer more products in after.
@@TheBudgetDermatologist Thank you so much for replying and happy holidays!
Hi! Thanks for the video!! Can you apply these retinoid products under your eyes? Life the Avene one
Hi Dr! Thank you so much for the great content! What are your thoughts on TO’s Grandactive Retinoid 2% in emulsion?
I have been using it for a year and it makes my combi acne prone skin better. It plumps up my skin, reduces acne (as combined with other actives like niacinamide in the morning) and reduces my sebum production but hydrate my skin as well. Now Im on tretinoin since I need stronger product since my acne recently has been flared up again by hormone and stress. Hope this helps!
Would it be okay to start using Vit C (in the morning) and Retinol (at night) on the same day?
Thank you for being one of the few Derms I’ve seen actually saying to use it once then waiting 3-7 days 🙌🏽! Soooo many (I’ve watched a lot of derm & esthetician videos aha) say start every other day. That’s just crazy to me!! I’m happy how I was thinking to use it is applicable. 🤗
Can you do a video about silicones? They are EVERYWHERE and I think this ingredient is "iffy" for me. Would love to know your thoughts and maybe some suggestions for silicone free options.
Great suggestion! Thanks for the comment!
Love your videos. Very practical and informational. New subscriber from the Philippines. 💕😊
Awesome!! Thanks for following along!
I’ve tried avene 0,1 and I didn’t saw good results with it, I can see result with Neutrogena. Did you try La Roche-Posay Redermic R ? Was wondering if it’s stronger than the Neutrogena 🤔
I've learned more with this channel in 24hrs about skin care than I have my whole life. Thank you so much. I don't have the money to go to a dermatologist but since learning in your channel I've made many adjustments to my routines and have seen amazing results. I tend to go for cruelty free vegan products but I still follow your ingredient breakdown and look for those things in the products I purchase. Tha KS again and please keep this channel going
Hello, thanks for all the great information. now I have sensitive and mature skin which retinol product do you recommend for me? Thanks
The Best and my fave dermatology channel!! Can you please make a MORNING AND NIGHT ROUTINE for Dry Skin. Thank you!
Do you have any recommendations for switching from nightly use of .2% encapsulated retinol to .1% adapalene? My 15-year-old has been using retinol nightly for over 6 months (with a couple of months slow transition before) with no real progress on his acne. Derm also had him using cerave benzoyl cleanser beforehand, wondering if we should switch that to a gentle cleanser. He never had any issues with irritation. Thanks so much!!
Thank you for breaking everything down! I was prescribed retinoids as a teen with acne and they always made my face way more red and flaky. All the dermatologist ever said was that I just had to wait out the redness and it would eventually get better. But I'm an impatient person and would just stop using it. I had no idea that I was applying it too soon after washing my face and that it probably would have helped to use a moisturizer first. I also didn't know to start super super slow either. I'm going to give it another go!
So you don’t suggest/like the Cerave Retinol? I bought some after that drug store product video.
I do like that retinol! There are several others I like as well but not mentioned in this video. I will talk more about the ones I like so stay tuned! Thanks for watching.
THANK YOU! I’m addicted to your channel!
Got my brows waxed after starting Tretinoin… actually forgot I used it recently… blisters and pain… lesson learned!
Adapalene/Differin requires a prescription in the UK, which is a bit of a bummer. Either way I loved the video, as a guy who knew absolutely nothing about skincare, after watching your videos I'm not as startled and confused. Cheers!
I'm so glad you are finding these videos helpful. I'm excited to continue to create content like this to help simplify skincare for everyone. And yes, that is a bummer it's not available over the counter in your area!!
@@TheBudgetDermatologist They're incredibly helpful indeed.
You are beautiful and I love your videos. I would like to help my Vegan daughter but I don’t know where to start. Please do a video on the best Vegan and Cruelty Free products, and how best to use them. Thank you.
You’re amazing! I’m so happy I found your channel!! I have one quick question. If I use retinol and hyaluronic acid in my skin care routine is it ok to apply in this order: cleanser, hyaluronic acid, moisturizer, retinol? Or should I save the hyaluronic acid for my morning routine?
I have the same question!
What moisturizer can I use with Differin? Can I use the rapid wrinkle with Differin? Or can I use vitamin E or árgan oil? Pleaseee help
I love Vanicream moisturizing cream. I just started adapalene last night. I apply Vanicream first, then a pea sized amount of adapalene. @cheri11 11
