I’ve looked up info and asked a dermatologist about whether trenitoin or differin was better for anti aging and was told they would basically give the same results.

I really don’t think there is a difference really in daily use of .05 and .1 as far as results , I can use either and I do not see any difference when I have used .1 or the .05, only difference is I can still sometimes get irritated from the .1, I do not with the . 05 . I honestly think it’s the one you can use the most frequently that gives the best result. If you can use the .05 daily but the .1 only every 2 nights I think you will have better results with the .05. Strongest is not always the best. I think you would be just as happy using .05 nightly with those results. I personally feel that Tret outperforms all other more recent Products that have come out like the growth factors but update if you find they actually do something please ! So far I have found nothing else that does as much 😊

Plus a little tube lasts for a long time so it’s really cost efficient. Happy holidays all❤️

Hello Jennifer. I subscribed to your channels years ago due to the resonance I had you in terms of lifestyle interests (diet and exercise) not so much on skin care. However I, finally, started paying very close attention to your skin care videos from the past and obviously more recent. I concluded that your valuable experience with the products you use are indeed an obvious evidence of their efficacy Therefore I started trying topical adapalene (Differin) with great success for the past 3.5 months. I wanted to thank you for the integrity of your content and its positive impact. If one may have the audacity to ask you a question, what is your experience with daily sunscreens? Are there specific criteria for the ones you use? I watched your review on a tinted one you recently started on, but what are your thoughts on full spectrum non-tinted ones? Your content is high appreciated :)

Thanks for the straight forward videos! I have been using differin for almost 2 years now and am so glad I pushed through the initial 4 months where my skin was breaking out. It is a great product and worth the patience. At 31 I have just got Retin A and am thinking of starting this soon alternating with differin. One question do you bring the differin or tretenoin under your eyes? If not what do you do under your eyes? That is the area I’ve found aging the most for myself, but I haven’t brought the differin there as I am concerned for sensitivity. Thank you!

So nice to to Sean honest person giving us advice and sharing their longevity journey, thank you so much Jennifer

I've been using tretinoin since may 2019 roughly, I still get acne, because mine is hormonal. So for people with hormonal acne, or an underlying skin condition, tretinoin can't perform a miracle. But I'll never stop using it because I know it helps my skin texture, smoothness, etc. I still get oily, because that is also genetic. Some things you can't change. Dr. Dray (Amanda Suarez) explains this very well. Probably my diet is not optimal enough, I can't get my head around eating beef liver, salmon with skin and bones etc. I'm a sugar bug and I know it does me no good. Anyway, love your videos, they calm me. Love your honesty and I would like to see a close up of your skin, ''makeup free''. Gosh it looks like glass. 🙂
