@Mayo J. I havnt had any issue with good old albolene 3-1 cleanser , minimal ingredients no cloged pores does the job awesome for makeup and sunscreen and doesn't irritate me or break me out, my skin type is , sensitive dry acne prone skin , I currently suffer no acne though:^) Give it a try, cheap for a tub👍 and I can suffer fungal acne during the warmer months and this doesn't make it worse plus your 2nd cleanser washes it off, and there's no such oil cleanser without oils lol, as long there's no coconut oil 👍
Also is it OK for me to use differin only for the rest of my life or would it be more beneficial results to switch to tretnoin however u spell it, in January I have a dermatalogist appointment. I'm also 21 years old

This is a very effective product and your skin looks beautiful. I started using it at age 40 and I am now 82 and still using it for now for 42 years. My daughter age 59 is using it also and has beautiful clear skin as I do. It takes time as you described and I also find that my face keeps fat in it over thinning out. Like you I use the castor oil around my eyes. Keeping lips moisturized is important or as you age lips tend to dry up and disappear.
May I ask how did you start? At what percentage(and did you use retinol or retinal before that) and how did you decide to go up with %? At what strength are you now, i.e.the longest? Thank you☺️
im curious about your account of keeping fat in the face? I am guessing you are aware of all the reports of people experiencing the opposite. many people say they notice they lost fat, especially in the under eye. ive seen photos of many people with this result and It does look like something went wrong. very curious of how people have such opposite experiences

One of the things I appreciate about topical retinoids is how they simplify the rest of your routine. Basics are best, and looking after the skin is king. 12-step routines with multiple actives just seems like asking for trouble.

I've used differin for about 10 years and tretinoin for about 5 for adult acne. I'm 38 now, and my skin looks so much better than it did in my 20s. Using those plus sunscreen, gentle facewash, and moisturizer on my face, neck, chest, and backs of hands really has made a world of difference.
I’m starting in a couple months and I’m excited, I suffered from terrible cystic acne all over my face for a decade did 2 rounds of Accutane that almost fucks up my liver, in the end I managed to get rid of my acne naturally but I have some scarring and hyperpigmentation and every once in a while i get some pimples but nothing like it was years ago.

Everything she highlights in this video is accurate. Tretinoin is a long game. I'm 28 years old and I've been using tretinoin for 8 years, starting when I was 20 years old due to cystic acne outbreaks.

So, if you plan to use tretinoin just push through and have faith that you'll reap the benefits in the long run.
@@RaquelpeQe21 initially i apply it only 3 times per week and i didn’t had that dry peeling face because my skin is oily so i guess that’s one of the many factors why i’ve rarely struggle with peeling issues
I love your videos because you keep your routine simple. I only use retin a and have for 13 years. I am 51 and have no wrinkles. Retin A is all you need.xx
I think you’re very wrong about the tretinoin timeframe. You said the side effects won’t even start showing until weeks into using it. The first time I put tretinoin on, a very very tiny amount on top of my heavily moisturized (absorbed) skin, I woke up in the morning with my entire face peeling. It took me one night, several hours to experience the side effects. Most people do. You also said that results don’t show in a month or two, and that it can take up to a year for them to start showing. For some people they really do though, on skin that tends to tolerate tretinoin better in general. I remember how it was for me, within a week my skin was much more glowy and radiant, and after two months my hyperpigmentation was significantly improved. The only thing that didn’t was the actual acne, which can take a little longer. I don’t think people are lying about their results, especially about side effects.
I started using tretinoin .1% at 29 for acne. I’m now 37 and continue to use it every night and I’m super religious about my sunscreen. I get many compliments on my skin and I’m often told I look a decade younger. I don’t spend money on high end, overly priced skincare. My Rx tretinoin and sunscreen is all I need. I use Cerave cleanser and Cerave moisturizer. I recently started using Rx hydroquinone too for evening out my skin tone. Luckily my insurance covers my tretinoin for acne, so only I pay for is the hydroquinone. I feel sooo lucky I started tretinoin so young, I will continue to use it until my old age lol
@@colabpro2615 my doctor prescribed it and it’s meant to be used for a short time to reduce uneven skin tone. Then maintain results with sunscreen. I am able to use it again if the spots come back. My doc said it’s safe
Have you noticed any difference in your eye health since using castor oil? People have reported improvement in vision and less "floaters" using castor oil around the eyes. As someone with kind of dry eyes, floaters and impaired vision, I've been really interested in trying it.
Wow ! Great video ! To the point and a testament to the product and the process that you are taking about. These are the type of “influencers” I’m looking for lately. I can’t with the ones that have a different “holy grail “ every month. Thank you for making this video!😊
I wanted to say you're aging like a fine wine! but you always were a fine wine lol.. you're just getting finer haha..i was 30 when i first started tret but i discontinued after 2 monsths of use but finally at 32 finally doing it for 3+ months and i am already seeing improvement! and all thanks to you cuz you're the first person who introduced me to tret
Fot who is saying that she has botox:. Im 32, but when I was 15, I realized one of my school friends used to move her forehead muscles a lot when she was speaking, and she had expression marks because of that. So I decided do not move mine like that. Years after, now, I have no wrinkles or lines at all. Of course when I laugh, when I cry, it moves, but it I dont do it unnecessarily like many people do.
@@colabpro2615 the minimal possible. Sometimes I don't even do it, but I always washed my face in cold water, not matter the season. I think a life without any smoking, drugs and very little alcohol, plus a more natural diet helped my skin a lot. I used tretinoin in my early twenties for acne, but I was never consistent, always on and off. I just started again this week.
And I have VERY expressive eyebrows. I went for Botox and my dr said my muscles are very powerful and that’s probably why at 38 my eyebrows are still very high, no sagging at all.
You are absolutely lovely! And it’s true! I’ve been using Tretinoin for over twenty years now and I assure you all that my skin looks like I’m in my early thirties when really I’m 47. Not to mention it’s so affordable
@@xmer3428 initially you need a prescription from a doctor but now I can just get refills. Per cream I pay about $30 and each cream lasts me well over 3 month if not longer for you only need a tiny bit.
She JUST DOESNT WANT TO DO THE UNNECESSARY MUSCLE MOVEMENT TO AVOID WRINKLES. I am 44 Asian/ Spanish and I dont have any wrinkle or crows feet because I avoid sun and unnecessary brow movement. Please STOP the hate , @jennifermyers is just trying to help. NO ONE is forcing you to believe , if you dont like or believe what your watching , you can simply SWIPE next video. Spread L❤VE not hate.
I love your consistency and how authentic you are. I have been implementing these tips since your earlier videos and my skin just keeps getting better... No fancy products and no wishy washy new products every week. These simple products work the best and are the most budget friendly. I really appreciate your honestly and staying true to yourself and sharing.
I have been using retinA since the 1980. And won stop using it. I have made my skin so beautiful. Let’s keep using retinA. Better than many expensive creams.
@@Ohkeh640 I wait about twenty minutes after I wash my face and then apply the retinA. And anywhere from thirty to forty to apply moisturizer. But not every one does that. I allow my time in the evening.
I am using tretinoin as well. But i question the condition of your face is only tretinoin.?Maybe Botox or anything else? There in no mimik at all in your face. Just say..
@TrinaGallo maybe she intentionally speaks without almost moving that area and it seems a bit like botox / lacking expression. But I do see movements there Either way, botox isn't bad or good per se, to each his own, but I don't think she says she's never done botox. Her skin texture and complexion is still amazing (and yours too looking at your channel 😍)
@@yhyuk Thanks! Oh I have nothing against Botox. I’m thinking of getting a little in a few years. But I don’t like that she leads us to believe her skin is THAT perfect ONLY because she uses tret.
@@yhyuk I got nothing against Botox! If I had the $, I’d already have Botox, AND Sculptra in my temples and chin! But I wouldn’t lead people to believe Tret is responsible. Ok- go look in the mirror and smile. Like a REAL smile. Do you see movement around your eyes?
so assuming she started when she was 20, now she must be 40, and she said that's how old I am... i mean... i think you stopped aging since you used it. really give us all hope
I love the video, the products and the results! ❤ Everyone talking crap in the comments about you using Botox, who cares if you do or don’t. Yes botox prevents lines from forming. From experience Botox can help with that but it can’t give you great skin! This video is about skincare, and it’s obvious you have amazing skin from Tretinoin and your commitment to your skincare regimen. Thank you for sharing what works for you. Make sure you choose a non-toxic spf everyone 😊 Not all are created equally.
I've used retin-A since I was 13, I'm now 54. I will never stop using it because I definitely look younger than most women my age. I also use c serum and peptides. Plus sunscreen TWICE a day because I am a bus driver and need to protect my skin😀👍
There's a lot of toxic ingredients in all those skin moisturizers though. They will build up in the body. It's better to try and find something organic.
Because of you i found out i Can use both adapalene and tretinoin. Been using adapalene 2 years with great results and incorporated tret 2 weeks ago with no bad sideeffects. I am Super excited for the long term results. Recently Someone guessed my age by 23, i am 35 😅 🎉 😂
Hey! I just wanted to ask, what are the benefits of mixing adapalene and tretinoin. I've been using tretinoin for almost a year now and it got me thinking.
Hi Jennifer I am so glad that you are back on here. I noticed that you did not mention vitamin c. I recall from old videos that you used vitamin c in your am routine. Did you discontinue that? You give me motivation to keep hanging in there with my tretinoin. Thanks!
My skin is very sensitive and I have trouble with most treatments but I am using sunscreen since I was 20 consistently every day and now at 30 I start seeing a difference in the rate of aging compared to my peers.
I found using exfoliating face washes a good first step. I’ve been using the neostrata clarifying face wash for years. This has salicylic acid and mandalic acid and I am now able to use stronger actives either in face wash form and some leave on products.
I think “IF” she looks 41 then it’s because the shirt and her hair done up. Imagine her hair was down and that she’s wearing a bright shirt. It’s not always skin that indicates age. There are many other factors that make a person look young/old and skin is only one of them.
It’s great to have ever youthful skin, but you aren’t smiling in this video or any of your photos…no smiling to keep from aging??? Just want to really know please.
Hello Jennifer , I would like to thank you for sharing your secret. I started using Tretinoin after watching your videos and I am so grateful to you. I have been using it for almost 2 years and my skin is looking so great. Thank you
Hii Jennifer! Recently I have begun my Tretinoin journey. One thing that I am uncertain about is whether I can apply Tretinoin around my eyes. Thank you for dispelling my confusion^_^
Girl you have Botox on. That’s why your skin is shining. Also you haven’t been able to make a facial expression during the entire video. Don’t lie. I’ve used thousands of creams and when I got Botox that’s when I got the glass skin.
She has autism which makes her very unexpressive, it's a very common symptom and she has talked about it. And tretinoin is NOTORIOUS for causing glowing, glass skin lol. No need to be cruel.
You are so beautiful, I admire your determination and everyone else's who manage to stick to the routine and never gave up on tretinoin, I have done it for a year, not for acne but anti-aging but I decided I love being outside, I love swimming in sea, lakes, river, ride a bike, do gardening and I still use sunscreen but with tretinoin I always worried if I reapply often enough? I got anxious staying in direct sunlight, wore a hat all the time and I decided I don't want to live like this, sunscreen YES but gave up retinol, bring those wrinkles on😊 still love your channel, your mindset and health advice.
I’ve been using 0.1% tretinoin since 2005. It took me some years to figure out what regimen works for my skin, and I’m 32 now and everyone says I look like I’m in my early 20s.
Hi Jennifer, I was wondering have you ever made a mistake by not applying enough or forgot to wear sunscreen and burned your facial skin? If yes, how did you treat your burn , what was your regiment while healing ?
I have been using tretinoin for 6 months and added niacinamide to my routine 2 months ago. My skin never looked better, I still have pores and acne scars though. I wish Ive started in my 20s. Still the best thing aboutit is I don’t wake up like a grease ball, it made my skin so much more balanced. Niacinamide helps with pores tremendously, overall my skin feels less textured. I use tretinoin 1-2 times a week and niacinamide 3 times a week. Moisturize twice a day and apply spf in the morning. Simple as that
I'm using The ordinary's niacinamide serum but it causes me to break out if I use it everyday. So I use it 1-2 times a week now and only apply to my cheeks where I have the most textured look from big pores. @@ffi1001
I started my retinol journey last year cuz im now 24. I was so naive that time and damaged my skin barrier gave me bad acne breakouts, I never had breakouts even on my teens, i had to rest for a few months and now back on retinol, im so glad i found your channel because you really inspire me on your commitment on an anti aging lifestyle and i try to incorporate it in my daily life thank youu
Keep using tretinoin and use it forever. Just use sunscreen during the day. I would also suggest using Vitamin C during the day as well if your skin can tolerate. If you do this now, you’ll look at least 5-10 years younger than your peers when you’re 40. I should know. I’m 40 and I started using tretinoin at the age of 27 for my acne. I have no fine lines or wrinkles
Hey Jennifer, how do you get rid of facial hair? Do you micro needle your face? How do you shape your eyebrows? I have been using tretinoin for a year now as an acne treatment and discoverd your videos on UA-cam. It truly changed my view on skincare! You are amazing ❤
@@jeannied7743 dermatologist yes and some countries OTC. It’s easy to get the prescription because you can have good skin and they’ll still give it to you.
Hi Jennifer! Been watching your videos for years and have always wanted to ask you this question; do you have any suggestions or advice for sagging skin/jowls...etc? I want to believe that I know & understand your overall well-aging philosophy & principles but I would appreciate any further insight on this specific topic from you! Much respect & adoration ❤❤❤❤
13:31 I have to disagree because most studies show you can see results as early as 3 months. It really depends on the person. I’m at my 3 month mark and my acne has been stabilized and I’m starting to see my face slowly change. I’m starting to gradually look like my late teens self. I’m in my 20’s..
For as long as it’s been around you would think that the pharmaceutical companies that make it would update the formulations to not include microplastics (e.g, carbomer) and ethoxylated ingredients (e.g., PEGs).
Hello, you look lovely. I notice that your skin on your neck and décolletage is in the same condition as your face. I'm curious if you apply this skincare routine to those areas as well? ❤
When I was 25 i started using retin A and still use it to this day [33] and I stopped getting dysport because my forhead lines aren't even there anymore. I get mine from thailand where you don't need a docs prescription, when my dad goes there he brings me back 10 at a time a few times a year. That plus matrixyll 3000 is so far stopping static wrinkles from trying to form.
Depends on the person, some people get irritated and some people have no issues. If you do have issues you can use vaseline as a barrier on more sensitive areas.
This is amazing. New subbie here. Did you have children? Wondering how long your break from tretinoin was if you did. I’m on my third pregnancy and haven’t been able to use retin-a since before my first pregnancy because my kids are just a few years apart and I’ve breastfed.
Is this a regiment suitable for 62 year old with fine lines everywhere in the face. Will gladly do it if I have a chance of improvement in the long haul. Thank you
I wish this comment could be pinned. Bone resorption, muscle tone, and loss of baby fat is going to make you look your chronological age no matter what you do. You can still look attractive in your 30-40's and to some extend look much younger however that is pretty much up to your genetics.
@@DragonicCherrywhat im trying to say is that these people still look old, they just dont have wrinkles. And honestly, sometimes it just makes you look weird. But very rarely do these products make you look young
I had started using tretinoin 0.05% and adapalene 0.1% just after watching a UA-cam Short video of a dermatologist and within a week, my skin was peeling (it was my 5th or 6th day). I did not know that it was supposed to happen and so I stopped, fearing that I have done something wrong with my skin. It's very interesting that it took 12 months for you to notice changes on your skin .I will however, admit that I was using it daily before sleep. I have started using tretinoin again (twice a week, I might increase it to 3 times).
Oh Jennifer I needed this video today I’m 65 and was prescribed tretinoin about 20 years ago but have never been consistent so this time I’m 3 months in and I’m going to stick to it 🤞🏻I’m glad you said it can take a year to see results so better late then never I have followed you from the beginning of your UA-cam journey in previous videos you used vitamin c serum do you do longer use it in your routine and do you moisturize your entire face in the pm with the cerave or the cetaphil I told you I love your videos on skincare thank you again for your knowledge you look so beautiful and happy sending lots of love
Hello, I just started using Tretinoin and this video was very very helpful. Thank you. I am starting quite late in life, I am almost 40. I hope it still works well for me. I was wondering, if possible, could you please do a video where you show how much you use, how you apply it etc?

I love your videos because you keep your routine simple. I only use retin a and have for 13 years. I am 51 and have no wrinkles. Retin A is all you need.xx
aging is okay, people. it feels so sad seeing women desperately chase youth and be a slave to this stuff. its futile.
You're the only skincare blogger on UA-cam that I genuinely trust. Thank you ❣️
How old is she?
I think you’re very wrong about the tretinoin timeframe. You said the side effects won’t even start showing until weeks into using it. The first time I put tretinoin on, a very very tiny amount on top of my heavily moisturized (absorbed) skin, I woke up in the morning with my entire face peeling. It took me one night, several hours to experience the side effects. Most people do.
You also said that results don’t show in a month or two, and that it can take up to a year for them to start showing. For some people they really do though, on skin that tends to tolerate tretinoin better in general. I remember how it was for me, within a week my skin was much more glowy and radiant, and after two months my hyperpigmentation was significantly improved. The only thing that didn’t was the actual acne, which can take a little longer.
I don’t think people are lying about their results, especially about side effects.
bruh u look 20
I started using tretinoin .1% at 29 for acne. I’m now 37 and continue to use it every night and I’m super religious about my sunscreen. I get many compliments on my skin and I’m often told I look a decade younger. I don’t spend money on high end, overly priced skincare. My Rx tretinoin and sunscreen is all I need. I use Cerave cleanser and Cerave moisturizer. I recently started using Rx hydroquinone too for evening out my skin tone. Luckily my insurance covers my tretinoin for acne, so only I pay for is the hydroquinone. I feel sooo lucky I started tretinoin so young, I will continue to use it until my old age lol
What country are you in? I want to buy tretinoin
Hydroquinone isn't good as far as I know..
@@colabpro2615 my doctor prescribed it and it’s meant to be used for a short time to reduce uneven skin tone. Then maintain results with sunscreen. I am able to use it again if the spots come back. My doc said it’s safe

Have you noticed any difference in your eye health since using castor oil? People have reported improvement in vision and less "floaters" using castor oil around the eyes. As someone with kind of dry eyes, floaters and impaired vision, I've been really interested in trying it.
Curious about the vision aspect as well.
Wow ! Great video ! To the point and a testament to the product and the process that you are taking about.
These are the type of “influencers” I’m looking for lately. I can’t with the ones that have a different “holy grail “ every month.
Thank you for making this video!😊
I wanted to say you're aging like a fine wine! but you always were a fine wine lol.. you're just getting finer haha..i was 30 when i first started tret but i discontinued after 2 monsths of use but finally at 32 finally doing it for 3+ months and i am already seeing improvement! and all thanks to you cuz you're the first person who introduced me to tret
Fot who is saying that she has botox:. Im 32, but when I was 15, I realized one of my school friends used to move her forehead muscles a lot when she was speaking, and she had expression marks because of that. So I decided do not move mine like that. Years after, now, I have no wrinkles or lines at all. Of course when I laugh, when I cry, it moves, but it I dont do it unnecessarily like many people do.
What's your skincare routine...? Would you like sharing?
@@colabpro2615 the minimal possible. Sometimes I don't even do it, but I always washed my face in cold water, not matter the season. I think a life without any smoking, drugs and very little alcohol, plus a more natural diet helped my skin a lot. I used tretinoin in my early twenties for acne, but I was never consistent, always on and off. I just started again this week.
And I have VERY expressive eyebrows. I went for Botox and my dr said my muscles are very powerful and that’s probably why at 38 my eyebrows are still very high, no sagging at all.
it's so sad and hilarious how you all are worried about natural shit. Cream won't save you when you're 60.

You are absolutely lovely! And it’s true! I’ve been using Tretinoin for over twenty years now and I assure you all that my skin looks like I’m in my early thirties when really I’m 47. Not to mention it’s so affordable

No fancy products and no wishy washy new products every week. These simple products work the best and are the most budget friendly. I really appreciate your honestly and staying true to yourself and sharing.
She’s had Botox- make no doubt about it.
I have been using retinA since the 1980. And won stop using it. I have made my skin so beautiful. Let’s keep using retinA. Better than many expensive creams.
How long after cleansing do you apply tretinoin? And how long after tret do you apply moisturiser?
@@Ohkeh640 I wait about twenty minutes after I wash my face and then apply the retinA. And anywhere from thirty to forty to apply moisturizer. But not every one does that. I allow my time in the evening.
I am using tretinoin as well. But i question the condition of your face is only tretinoin.?Maybe Botox or anything else? There in no mimik at all in your face. Just say..
Everybody are so jealous and mean in the comments omg
She has the most beautiful and healthy looking skin - what y'all talking about?
@TrinaGallo maybe she intentionally speaks without almost moving that area and it seems a bit like botox / lacking expression. But I do see movements there
Either way, botox isn't bad or good per se, to each his own, but I don't think she says she's never done botox.
Her skin texture and complexion is still amazing (and yours too looking at your channel 😍)
@@yhyuk Thanks! Oh I have nothing against Botox. I’m thinking of getting a little in a few years. But I don’t like that she leads us to believe her skin is THAT perfect ONLY because she uses tret.
@@yhyuk I got nothing against Botox! If I had the $, I’d already have Botox, AND Sculptra in my temples and chin! But I wouldn’t lead people to believe Tret is responsible. Ok- go look in the mirror and smile. Like a REAL smile. Do you see movement around your eyes?
I’ve been on it for three years and my skin is porcelain a majority of the time
Im 41 and start 3 months ago. I wish i knew about this on my 20s!
so assuming she started when she was 20, now she must be 40, and she said that's how old I am... i mean... i think you stopped aging since you used it. really give us all hope
You are the reason why I started using tretinoin and I absolutely am so glad that I found your channel.
it gave me peach fuzz a bit!! so I stopped
I love the video, the products and the results! ❤ Everyone talking crap in the comments about you using Botox, who cares if you do or don’t. Yes botox prevents lines from forming. From experience Botox can help with that but it can’t give you great skin! This video is about skincare, and it’s obvious you have amazing skin from Tretinoin and your commitment to your skincare regimen. Thank you for sharing what works for you. Make sure you choose a non-toxic spf everyone 😊 Not all are created equally.
Your skin is flawless! I wish I would have started using tretinoin a long time ago.
I've used retin-A since I was 13, I'm now 54. I will never stop using it because I definitely look younger than most women my age. I also use c serum and peptides. Plus sunscreen TWICE a day because I am a bus driver and need to protect my skin😀👍
So show us your skin.

What kind of sunscreen do you use ?
There's a lot of toxic ingredients in all those skin moisturizers though. They will build up in the body. It's better to try and find something organic.
No, this is not scientific
Because of you i found out i Can use both adapalene and tretinoin. Been using adapalene 2 years with great results and incorporated tret 2 weeks ago with no bad sideeffects. I am Super excited for the long term results. Recently Someone guessed my age by 23, i am 35 😅 🎉 😂
R u the Julia that is a Research Scientist?
Hey! I just wanted to ask, what are the benefits of mixing adapalene and tretinoin. I've been using tretinoin for almost a year now and it got me thinking.
I also want to know why you use both adaptalene and tret, is there a benefit of using both?
@@jeradjone3469 Maybe because of acne too. But I know adapalene is less abrasive(?)

What’s your skincare routine for your body? Love you’re channel!
Hi Jennifer I am so glad that you are back on here. I noticed that you did not mention vitamin c. I recall from old videos that you used vitamin c in your am routine. Did you discontinue that? You give me motivation to keep hanging in there with my tretinoin. Thanks!
Can we meet your mom, it would be great to see her skin
My skin is very sensitive and I have trouble with most treatments but I am using sunscreen since I was 20 consistently every day and now at 30 I start seeing a difference in the rate of aging compared to my peers.
I might try tretinoin again when I have had kids so I don‘t have to go on and off the treatment which irritates my skin too much
I found using exfoliating face washes a good first step. I’ve been using the neostrata clarifying face wash for years. This has salicylic acid and mandalic acid and I am now able to use stronger actives either in face wash form and some leave on products.
You could try retinal, it's one step away from tretinoin and much less irritating...
You look 41 however a very well cared for 41 year old. Tretinoin is an excellent exfoliator, well done and thank you for sharing your video... 😊
She does not look 41! Maybe early 30s
I think “IF” she looks 41 then it’s because the shirt and her hair done up. Imagine her hair was down and that she’s wearing a bright shirt. It’s not always skin that indicates age. There are many other factors that make a person look young/old and skin is only one of them.
Can I use AHA and BHA face wash with tritinoin
i m not fulltime brestdeeding mother can i use this?i really want to use this product ,,,i m 27

Hello Jennifer , I would like to thank you for sharing your secret. I started using Tretinoin after watching your videos and I am so grateful to you. I have been using it for almost 2 years and my skin is looking so great. Thank you
Hii Jennifer! Recently I have begun my Tretinoin journey. One thing that I am uncertain about is whether I can apply Tretinoin around my eyes. Thank you for dispelling my confusion^_^
I rotate trentinoin, glycolic acid, azlaic acid and salicylic acid. The result is great
which brand all ur product?
Girl you have Botox on. That’s why your skin is shining. Also you haven’t been able to make a facial expression during the entire video. Don’t lie. I’ve used thousands of creams and when I got Botox that’s when I got the glass skin.
Exactly.
She has autism which makes her very unexpressive, it's a very common symptom and she has talked about it. And tretinoin is NOTORIOUS for causing glowing, glass skin lol. No need to be cruel.
I think the excessive filler you’ve been getting should also be mentioned….
Doesnt look like filler. Seems more like she gain weight in the face. Asian tend to gain fat in face easily.
You are so beautiful, I admire your determination and everyone else's who manage to stick to the routine and never gave up on tretinoin, I have done it for a year, not for acne but anti-aging but I decided I love being outside, I love swimming in sea, lakes, river, ride a bike, do gardening and I still use sunscreen but with tretinoin I always worried if I reapply often enough? I got anxious staying in direct sunlight, wore a hat all the time and I decided I don't want to live like this, sunscreen YES but gave up retinol, bring those wrinkles on😊 still love your channel, your mindset and health advice.
I’ve been using 0.1% tretinoin since 2005. It took me some years to figure out what regimen works for my skin, and I’m 32 now and everyone says I look like I’m in my early 20s.
Wow, so you started when you were 15? That's amazing!
Isa 0,1 too harsh for beginners with dry skin?
@@tequilabumbum4373 I began on 0.1% and it was really rough the first few years actually, but I have zero issues now.

Hi Jennifer, I was wondering have you ever made a mistake by not applying enough or forgot to wear sunscreen and burned your facial skin? If yes, how did you treat your burn , what was your regiment while healing ?
What are your thoughts on waiting 20 minutes or so for the skin to completely dry before applying tretinoin?
I do this and I wait 30-45 min I’m curious to know how long everyone waits between moisturiser tret etc
Introduce ur mom to us
There are videos with her mother
while I love my tret and apply it religiously, a lot of skin health and aging comes down to genetics and your heritage
I have been using tretinoin for 6 months and added niacinamide to my routine 2 months ago. My skin never looked better, I still have pores and acne scars though. I wish Ive started in my 20s. Still the best thing aboutit is I don’t wake up like a grease ball, it made my skin so much more balanced. Niacinamide helps with pores tremendously, overall my skin feels less textured. I use tretinoin 1-2 times a week and niacinamide 3 times a week. Moisturize twice a day and apply spf in the morning. Simple as that
What niacinamide product are you using
I'm using The ordinary's niacinamide serum but it causes me to break out if I use it everyday. So I use it 1-2 times a week now and only apply to my cheeks where I have the most textured look from big pores. @@ffi1001
I started my retinol journey last year cuz im now 24. I was so naive that time and damaged my skin barrier gave me bad acne breakouts, I never had breakouts even on my teens, i had to rest for a few months and now back on retinol, im so glad i found your channel because you really inspire me on your commitment on an anti aging lifestyle and i try to incorporate it in my daily life thank youu
It's good to be starting while you're still young because once you hit the 30s aging hits you too. One day you wake up like what the hell happened lol
Keep using tretinoin and use it forever. Just use sunscreen during the day. I would also suggest using Vitamin C during the day as well if your skin can tolerate. If you do this now, you’ll look at least 5-10 years younger than your peers when you’re 40. I should know. I’m 40 and I started using tretinoin at the age of 27 for my acne. I have no fine lines or wrinkles
I enjoy keeping it basic, simple. I agree 🙏🙏🙏🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

Do you get it from the doctor? Thanks 🙏🧞♀️🙏
Buy a home IPL hand machine for facial hair
@@jeannied7743 dermatologist yes and some countries OTC. It’s easy to get the prescription because you can have good skin and they’ll still give it to you.
I’ll be honest with you, they say don’t wax with tret but I wax my own moustache and brows with no issues.
Do you notice any scar disappear? I just want to know if it is possible to eliminate scar in 20 years with tretinoin.
Hi Jennifer! Been watching your videos for years and have always wanted to ask you this question; do you have any suggestions or advice for sagging skin/jowls...etc?

Can I use this product Differin® Gel (adapalene 0.1%) even if i dont have acne
13:31 I have to disagree because most studies show you can see results as early as 3 months. It really depends on the person. I’m at my 3 month mark and my acne has been stabilized and I’m starting to see my face slowly change. I’m starting to gradually look like my late teens self. I’m in my 20’s..
For as long as it’s been around you would think that the pharmaceutical companies that make it would update the formulations to not include microplastics (e.g, carbomer) and ethoxylated ingredients (e.g., PEGs).
Yes, why can't this product be produced purely? There is a reason pregnant women are told to stop using it, right?
Hello, you look lovely. I notice that your skin on your neck and décolletage is in the same condition as your face. I'm curious if you apply this skincare routine to those areas as well? ❤
When I was 25 i started using retin A and still use it to this day [33] and I stopped getting dysport because my forhead lines aren't even there anymore. I get mine from thailand where you don't need a docs prescription, when my dad goes there he brings me back 10 at a time a few times a year. That plus matrixyll 3000 is so far stopping static wrinkles from trying to form.
are you in america?
Hello, can I use tretinoin around the lip area? I would be grateful for an answer. Very best regards
Depends on the person, some people get irritated and some people have no issues. If you do have issues you can use vaseline as a barrier on more sensitive areas.
This is amazing. New subbie here. Did you have children? Wondering how long your break from tretinoin was if you did. I’m on my third pregnancy and haven’t been able to use retin-a since before my first pregnancy because my kids are just a few years apart and I’ve breastfed.
Is this a regiment suitable for 62 year old with fine lines everywhere in the face. Will gladly do it if I have a chance of improvement in the long haul. Thank you
No harm trying! I’m 61 and just started…
It can definitely help. It doesn't just prevent future aging, it can also reduce existing signs of aging :)
I started using tretnoin at 20, iam 24 now still using it daily.
Just wanna put this out there. Having tight skin doesn’t mean looking young
EXACTLY. In her bathroom videos she's reddish tan with spotting and undereyebags
She looks 40 something.
No, but that's not all tretinoin does, it increases collagen
I wish this comment could be pinned. Bone resorption, muscle tone, and loss of baby fat is going to make you look your chronological age no matter what you do. You can still look attractive in your 30-40's and to some extend look much younger however that is pretty much up to your genetics.
@@DragonicCherrywhat im trying to say is that these people still look old, they just dont have wrinkles. And honestly, sometimes it just makes you look weird. But very rarely do these products make you look young
Do you not get any sensitivity at all???
It gets less sensitive with time
I had started using tretinoin 0.05% and adapalene 0.1% just after watching a UA-cam Short video of a dermatologist and within a week, my skin was peeling (it was my 5th or 6th day). I did not know that it was supposed to happen and so I stopped, fearing that I have done something wrong with my skin. It's very interesting that it took 12 months for you to notice changes on your skin .I will however, admit that I was using it daily before sleep. I have started using tretinoin again (twice a week, I might increase it to 3 times).
Oh Jennifer I needed this video today I’m 65 and was prescribed tretinoin about 20 years ago but have never been consistent so this time I’m 3 months in and I’m going to stick to it 🤞🏻I’m glad you said it can take a year to see results so better late then never I have followed you from the beginning of your UA-cam journey in previous videos you used vitamin c serum do you do longer use it in your routine and do you moisturize your entire face in the pm with the cerave or the cetaphil I told you I love your videos on skincare thank you again for your knowledge you look so beautiful and happy sending lots of love
