Hi everyone. First of all, THANK YOU for great content! Very informative.❤ I hope you dont mind some questions. I'm currently using Hydroquinone 2% and Tretinoin. Been using them only for a month now without serious side effect. Started slow. Do you think I can use Hydroquinone 2% with Copper Peptide? I read an article about Hydroquinone oxidation by Copper, it didn't say anything about Copper peptide though.
Ok I always love these videos with Dr. Claire but just her comments about EWG need to be a clip on TikTok... I have been trying to say this to people but she, of course, is explains it with so much more expertise!

Yes, perfect routine to start!
Hydroquinone for 2 months, stop it for 3 months. So during those 2 months of using, can we use it on alternate days just to avoid the chances of the side effect
can l moisturiser before applying it?

It is! You just have to acclimate to your HQ alone first for a few weeks before adding your Tret back into your routine.
So helpful! I’ve been using it for almost three months after my co2 laser because I was getting hyperpigmentation. I’m most definitely stopping now and taking a break. My derm did say only take for three months but I wasn’t sure how long of break should take. Thank you.

Just started using Hydroquinone 4%. (July) Why would it be a waste to start in the summer?

Not recommended to use HQ in the summer, not a good mix with the sun! Always best to start HQ and laser treatments in the fall!

You should not use HQ for longer than 3 months! 3 Months tops, then take a break for a few months, repeat.
Hydroquinone is banned in EU. I don’t think people should risk their skin for that. Resorcin is a similar thing but safer.
