I cannot tell you how much the retinol sandwich helps! I have seen a dramatic improvement in the texture of my skin. The laroche posay double face moisturizer is amazing and I can’t believe I had never tried vanicream before. The face wash feels nice.

I started this routine on me and my son about 6 weeks ago and it WORKS! My son has acne and his skin is clearing, tone is evening out and the acne scars are fading. We started every 3rd day and now it's every other day. Neither one of us have had the dryness, flaking, redness, etc. from using a retinoid. I had used retinol for years before starting Differin, so my skin was used to Vitamin A. However, my son was brand new and I was concerned. Thankfully, following these instructions have helped us both transition to Differin and get great results. After 4 weeks I added glycolic acid and Vitamin C back to my routine. I have used Serious Skincare Vitamin A, C and Glycolic products for over a decade. So, I was fairly confident that I wouldn't have a reaction, and I didn't. For the nights I use Differin I use Cerave Moisturizing Cleanser & Cerave Moisturizing Cream. I keep it basic and it is working. Thanks for sharing this info because it has helped us a lot - especially our teenage son :)

@NomfundoV8 Год назад

Thanks for the info! When did you start incorporating it every other day?

@HerLifeReimagined Год назад

@@NomfundoV8 Hi! I think it was about 3-4 weeks in I started every other day. My skin got used to it pretty quickly and I didn't have any redness or flaking. My skin felt a little sensitive to the touch when I first increased it, but I really amped up my skin barrier care and I've been fine. I'm still every other day, but mainly because I forget or want to try another active at night instead. I like to alternate Differin and then a glycolic acid or extra nourishing skin barrier products. I hope that's helpful :) Have a great day!

This formula also has antioxidants like vitamin e as well as lipid fats, vitamin c, and a retinoid. If your skin isn’t used to vitamin c, retinoid/retinol, or glycolic acid, I strongly suggest that you first start by applying them on top of a moisturizer or in a moisturizer sandwich as the kind doctor suggested. Also, only add one of these into your routine at a time so you can monitor any adverse effects. After a few weeks of zero adverse effects, you can add another one. Hope that helps!

@@sandyfarr8227 People who sell these retinol otc products really overhype them to sell their products.. The it's like comparing a sports car to a moped. They both get you places, one just gets you alot further and alot faster. I would even reccomend people just opt for the tretinoin route, it's 30-40 dollars a month, but worth every penny. differin works on different receptors than tretinoin, designed mostly with acne in mind. Tretinoin is alot more aggressive. Just my opinion on it, but it'll take 6-7 months for either of these to give you a result. May aswell use the one that will give you the best result in my opinion.

The key differences between the two are their molecular size and stability. Sodium hyaluronate has a smaller molecular weight than hyaluronic acid, penetrating even deeper than HA can.

I love adapalene. I haven't had acne for 20 years, but I just started using this product for anti-aging (or more importantly for slowing the signs of aging). After I knew I could easily tolerate Differin, I went on to Retin-A 0.025, then 0.05%, which I will use for 1 year to get my skin to the level I want it to be, and then I will go back to the Differin to maintain the results. I wish I would have started this at least 20 years ago. My skin looks good (because I have consistently used sunsreen for 40 years), but this has bumped my game, and this is SOOOOO affordable.

On differin I noticed that my skin has smaller pores...and it has more elasticity ..but it is also a bit drier. What do you think it is worth to continue with it or not? Btw I never had acne so I took it just to slow/prevent aging

@Joannabanana1989 2 года назад

I honestly do not know if Differin will have anti aging benefits. It makes sense since it is a retinoid. I would use it if you have access to it but if you can get tretinoin, the results are faster and better. I have only been on it about a month but it looks better than when I used Differin.

Thank you for content it is very informative & to the point ! I do have a few questions though . I have used glycolic acid , lactic acids , aha bha peels etc but haven’t introduced retinoids in my routine. At first my main focus was my cystic acne , now I’m more suffering with the scars with occasional breakouts when it comes to that time of month . Would this routine be better for me or your hyperpigmentation video ? If this one, should I refrain from all other products to help with the scars (vitamin C, alpha aburtin) & acne breakouts(salicylic acid, benzo, clindamycin from curology) on the other days I am not doing this particular routine ?? Thank you in advance

@theabispin8032 Год назад

If you’ve got your acne under control and you need to get rid of the discolouration maybe just go straight onto a retinoid/retinal because retinal can help with acne but also Param really helps with aging and dark spots 1:33

@erinmcneal6381 3 года назад

I started Differin at the end of December 2020, I didn't know about this channel and had no access to a derm, so I trusted Differin to give me good advice. They tell you to do it every day and don't stop! "Push through the sensitivity if you can handle it!" My skin was DESTROYED. But that wasn't just Differin's fault. I was doing so many things that were over-stripping my skin. Since discovering this channel, however, I learned how to heal my skin's barrier so I could start using Differin again, and I couldn't be happier! I still can't handle it every day, but on the days my skin feels more sensitive, I skip Differin for a less irritating retinol like Olay Retinol24. Thanks, Maren, for educating us! ❤

@michelletidler6773 3 года назад

How often do you use it? It made my face SUper sensitive and made everything I put on it sting and burn. And what moisturizer are you using now?

@erinmcneal6381 3 года назад

@@michelletidler6773 that's exactly how my skin was! I actually had to cut out entirely for a while to let my skin heal and calm down. So I used nothing but CeraVe Hydrating Cleanser and CeraVe PM moisturizer (and sunscreen in the am) for about month until I noticed all the stinging subside. Then I was VERY careful about how I reintroduced it. The CeraVe PM moisturizer is still the one I use most, but I've also used Aveeno Calm & Restore Oat Gel Moisturizer. I will sometimes put straight up Vaseline on my neck and eyes BEFORE I apply Differin. It helps block the retinoid from those sensitive areas. But DON'T use an occlusive like Vaseline OVER a retinoid bc it holds it in and causes it to go deeper and cause irritation. So anyway, now that my skin's barrier is healthier, I use Differin almost every night. I will used a gentler retinoid like Olay Retinol24 when my skin feels sensitive. That's my experience anyway!

You've given some great advice and I will try it. I have both of those laroche posay products and I will try the moisturizer sandwich because I think that could make a big difference and I could use the differin more often that way

@erinmcneal6381 3 года назад

I was getting crazy sensitivity to Differin, too, then I realized it was mostly due to an already compromised skin barrier. I had no idea that baking soda would DESTROY your skin and I had been adding some to my bath water EVERY bath. So, it is possible that there's something you're doing that's weakening your skin barrier without even realizing it.

@salsjas724 Год назад

Pretty good video Dr. Except I disagree with the sandwich method as it will end in uneven distribution of adapalene like one side will have less another will have more and that's bcz I'm rubbing my skin w this product over a moisturizer layer and at the end I have add a third layer too! That's too much tbh I'd rather just apply the adapalene at night and a moisturizer in the morning to get the most benefits. ❤️
