  • UPDATE 11/1/20: Apostrophe has changed my code. It is now: NICOLE20 and it will give you $15 off of your $20 visit charge and then $5 off of your first purchase. I am 52 years old and have been using Tretinoin religiously for 25 years now and swear by it. In this video, I'll tell you all about how and why I started using Tretinoin (kind of a funny story) along with giving you all the info about tretinoin (AKA Retin-A & Renova), how it works, clinical study information, how long it takes to work, photos of me ten and twenty years ago (for a little before and after) and how I currently get my tretinoin formulation through Apostrophe, an affordable online dermatology provider who partnered with me on this video. I hope you enjoy!

      Paulette Richards Copper peptides address firmness ie sagging but be mindful not to use too much . Less is more with peptides - It’s an amazing ingredient! If you can afford to pick up Niod Cooper amino isolate 1% that’s one I can attest to -only use a pea-size and dot it on your face and let the warmth of your hands spread it out as it turns to a silky oil from a gel texture - or the Ordinary Buffet with copper peptides is also good . Any of their peptides are quality ! Any questions please feel free to ask me . 😉 Stay healthy !

    I got started on retin-a when I was a teenager for acne- who knew it was blessing back then. I kept asking the doctor for Accutane but he felt my acne wasn't severe enough and said it would age me faster since it shrinks the oil glands and just stuck with Retin-a- I'm glad he had my best interest at heart at the time and thought about my skin in the future :)

      What a great doctor he is. I wish all doctors were like that. My doc is rushing me into taking accutane but my heart said no. I even bought the pills but did not take them. She even said retin-a won’t be effective in my breakout/cystic acne but i still did not listen and guess what retin-a worked perfectly. I am blessed to go through this breakout now cause it introduced me to retin-a

    I am using Apostrophe tretinoin too. Glad I found someone else who uses it. They started me on 0.05% strength. (I had been using Retinols). I tolerated it well with some drying though. After I finished it in 4 months, I asked for 0.1% . It’s not that drying for me. Wish I started tretinoin earlier in life. Latisse is great too. Thank you for your video.

    Hi Nicole, thanks for your video. I wanted to ask you your honest opinion, if one uses Tretinoin for anti-aging (I'm 47yrs), is it necessary to use additional products besides the sunscreen and moisturizer? I really struggle with having to use too many products. I love this combo that you mentioned of Tretinoin and Niacinimide. I am ok with using 3 products but anything more than that, and it's a bit much for me. I'll do it if I have to but prefer to narrow it down as much as possible. Also, to let the products soak in between uses. Thanks :)

    • @TheNicoleSanchez
      @TheNicoleSanchez  4 роки тому

      Hi Nino, I think the most important thing is to have a regimen and stick to it. If for you that means using fewer products, that would be the way to go. I think you could totally get by using the tretinoin in the evening, a good vitamin C serum in the morning, moisturizer and sunscreen. For me, I like the extra boost that I get using additional products (plus I have very dry skin so I’m always using oil’s too) but if I were going on a trip and had very limited space for skin care products, that is exactly what I would bring. 😊

For a natural option, Dermae's Overnight Peel is really good too. Wishing you all the best. ❤️🙂❤️
