RETINOL guide - Beginner
After using retinol for a few weeks, I noticed a significant improvement in my skin. My pores appeared smaller, my skin was smoother, and my fine lines were less noticeable. Additionally, my skin looked brighter and more radiant. It's essential to start slowly, though, and build up your tolerance over time. Retinol can cause some dryness and irritation, especially when you first start using it, so it's essential to use a gentle cleanser and moisturizer. Since retinol is such a powerful ingredient, it's important to be cautious about what you are pairing this with in your daily routine. To be specific, you cannot mix retinol with AHAs (Glycolic Acid Toner, Alpha Hydroxy Acid, Lactic Acid, Mandelic Acid Treatment, Apple Cider Vinegar Acid Peel), BHAs (Beta Hydroxy Acid Serum, C-50 Blemish Night Treatment), PHA Toner.
