Another option I'm LOVING is Double Play from Chemist Confessions. Encapsulated 0.3% retinol with Haloxyl peptides for under-eye circles, so it's formulated to be safe around the eyes as well.
I used to use the Paula’s Choice .3% retinol & bakuchiol serum. I think it is a good one for beginners and people with sensitive skin. It is also encapsulated and includes some peptides, licorice and oat extract and the THD vitamin C derivative. I used it for quite a while before switching to their 1% retinol. They are both expensive, $65, but have lots of good supporting ingredients. In the summer, I don’t need an additional moisturizer on top. I want to switch to retinaldehyde and even though I’m used to retinol, my skin often reacts to changes so I wanted a lower dose product. I’ve just started the Wishtrend “Vitamin A-mazing Bakuchiol night cream”. It has .03% retinal. Ive seen it on sale quite a bit but full price is about $30. I’ve only used it a few times, no irritation so far. I’ve looked at the avene retrinal but it has a red dye ingredient that I think has made my skin itchy in the past.
I’ve been using the roc as part of my night skin care routine for sometime now & I love that it is in capsule form. Glad that it’s one of the products that you recommend. I start with the Vichy HA, roc & I finish off with the La Rochey double repair moisturizer. Hope I’m doing it right. For the eyes I’ll try the Cerave you recommended. Thanks for the guidance ❤
Can you make a video comparing different prescription retinoids. I have used Tretinoin 0.05% for a while and struggled with dryness and switched to Altreno and very happy with it. I think it deserves a highlight!
REQUEST: I have been suggested not to put tretinoin around my eyes. What can I use to treat/ prevent eye wrinkles? Is there any one of these that can be used around eyes safely? how about adapalene can I put it around my eyes? How about behind eyelid and creases?
Dr. Jennie!!! I loved this video. Could you do a video explaining all the different names for on packaging as opposed to (Retin-A.). I hope that I’m explaining myself. Back in the 80’s I started using Retin-A because my was prescribed it and at the time I was 10 yrs old and developed oily skin with some blackheads. I’m now extremely sensitive due to multiple autoimmune diseases so I’m interested in learning more about other branding and different types of Retinols?
I love your videos. I also have sensitive skin. What do you think about murad ?There are two types : retinal resculpt overnight treatment & retinal youth renewal serum.
Hi doctor, thank you for these amazing informative videos! If you have the time: what is your opinion on the “KIEHL'S RETINOL SKIN-RENEWING DAILY MICRO-DOSE SERUM”? I have extremely sensitive skin and some rosacea and I am basically looking for the mildest retinol. What was your experience on the neck /sensitive areas with the Kiehl’s, if you tried it please? Many thanks 🙏🏼🌸🌸🌸
I love it imo - it’s expensive but it works for me. And don’t complain about being poor, I was homeless for 2 years, living at bus stops and train stations. Poorer than you
@@pinkbombshellcasing2672bad day for you today or what? When did I say it is too expensive for me? It has too many actives including exfoliating ones, so that mix is not appealing to me. Please seek help before making assumptions and accusations
I started in my 60s when I retired would you believe. I should have started early but was so busy with family & career & skin was not a priority unfortunately. I noticed a big difference after only a few applications.
