    I want to address the comments asking if I've had Botox, fillers, etc. so people can have the truth. I've never gotten anything done to my face. I don't judge anybody if that's the route they choose, but I chose to use topical treatment because I want to be in control of my own face and, also, it's not desirable to me to inject my face with stuff. I like my face the way it is. As for my lack of facial expression, I'm still getting used to filming myself, so that's a part of it. And being an extreme introvert, coupled with my reserved nature, and the fact that in my day to day life I'm teaching meditation & yoga, as well as providing hospice care (these are my occupations), my face looks the way it looks. What I'm trying to say is that we wear our lives on our faces. Everyone does. And I've never been a bubbly, over-animated person, so it would come across extremely artificial if I faked a persona that isn't who I am. Additionally, tretinoin imparts a "pulling" (tightening/firming) effect on the skin, which, is both good and bad. Yes, it makes the complexion appear flawless, but there are definite downsides. I can't open my mouth too widely, or I start to peel immediately, for example. The skin, before it peels (mine peels every day), becomes very tight, and taut, and tightly pulled skin looks ultra smooth and shiny, and then it sort of "cracks" (mine does anyway), starts to flake, and then peels away. New fresh skin is then revealed. This is the mechanism of Retin-A. Ultimately, I take it as a compliment and a testament to the power of this product, if people simply "can't believe" I've achieved my skin with the use of topical cream alone. That people believe me or don't believe me doesn't change the truth, and beyond what I've said here, I can't do much else. It's not my concern to convince anyone of anything. But I did want to address this, since I see numerous comments asking, speculating, and accusing me of not being honest. I have no problem being clear and upfront. This is who I am. I must add, too, for those who have asked tactfully - thank you, by the way. Happy holidays everyone.

    _I'm Glad she mentioned in the Video not to apply the RetinA right after cleansing unless you've been using it for a while._
    Do Not apply RetinA on damp skin when you're a Newbie Or just starting back using it again. You have to wait at least 25min after you Cleanse your face. IF NOT *_you'll experience Redness, Irritation, Peeling and Blisters._* She's been using RetinA for 15yrs and has built up her skin's Tolerence for it so it's easy for her to use it on damp skin without experiencing any Harsh side effects.

    Retin-A and spf 50 all year around is all you need. I use Cerave cleanse and lotion. I have used Retin-A and spf 50 almost every day since I was 27. I have never been a tanner either. Im 40 this year, but alot of people think my daughter who is 20 is my sister about same age. I stress her about spf 50 at least.

    What is aging my skin is not my skincare because that is flawless. I use vitamin c, sunscreen, retinol, hylaronic acid, and exfoliate 1x a week. It is the amount of sugar I eat. Sugar causes sagging akin and wrinkles. It makes my skin look tired. I just cant let it go

    I do my chest, shoulders, upper arms and neck too! Using retinol and other goodies like niacinamide and allantoin, placental protein, peptides and ceramides, arginine and vitamin c, etc these all benefit my skin on those areas too.Besides actives I also loves to treat my skin with humectants like glycerin and sodium hyaluronate/hyaluronic acid or hydrolyzed collagen. I’ve done this for a few years now and boy, am I smooth! I’m actually very proud as well as grateful for my skins texture and appearance. I definitely have both worked for this but I also have some sort of genetic advantage. I haven’t always been that good to my body; I have struggled with eating disorders since I was a child and I also am addicted to opiates and have been all my life. Though I’m not abusing anymore I do have been prescribed methadone as a lifelong medication for my addiction. So when you know that, looking as fresh and smooth and plump as I do at the age of forty two, forty three - that’s kinda amazing. I’m living my best skin life as a middle aged woman
    ✨😌✨ But on the other hand, I think we all have histories and life journeys that should be taken in consideration, and when we do that, we see that we are absolutely amazing and life in itself is a wonderful thing. Take care people and live your best life, every day! 🌸🦋💗
    I just started massaging my castor oil, that I use for my hair, into my lower eyelashes and eyebrows. My upper eyelashes have lash extensions so right now there’s not much that I can do. This is going to be interesting. I’m going to buy another bottle of castor oil as soon as possible, though, because the oil that I use for my hair isn’t just pure castor oil but it has fragrance and whatnot in it. So in a week or a few days I’ll have a pure castor oil for my lashes and under eye.

      I've been putting 100% pure castor oil IN my actual eyes every night when I go to sleep for two years and it has whitened and brightened the whites of my eyes. It has also reduced eye strain and chronic eye pain. It has also helped make my eyes naturally more moist over time. I used to have extremely veiny bloodshot eyes! Castor oil has made all the difference, it is a godsend! It has helped improve my eyes SO MUCH. ALSO, my eyelashes and eyebrows have become A LOT thicker, darker and longer over time aswell. Castor oil also has anti-ageing properties because it repairs and rejuvenates the cells in your skin. I LOVE castor oil so much! It's my miracle oil! Make sure the castor oil you use is: 1) Cold-pressed 2) Hexane-free 3) 100% pure and vegan!!! I use the 240ml Ecla Castor oil from Amazon! fyi.

Thank you for inspiring me to start tretinoin.

    Your lashes or a beautiful, they sort of have a star shape. Does the castor oil burn your eyes? Now, since you mention that your face feels very tight with retin A and it cracks sometimes I think I might know what the problem is, even though you didn't ask me. First, you've got the hyaluronic acid which will boost the hydration in your face and you have the emollients but you're putting the Retin-A on too quickly, the face should dry first. And I think even though you have the emollients, and the hyaluronic acid you probably need to use the CeraVe p.m. over the entire face to seal all of that good moisture in after. In fact putting the moisturizer on first might help a lot, meaning apply it before the Retin-A. I don't know if you have dry or oily skin but your Retin-A looks like a gel which generally works better with oily skin and the cream form works better with dry skin. Just trying to help with the irritation and flaking and peeling that you still seem to be getting after 15 years. Your skin looks Flawless though! Merry Christmas!
