Your knowledge-base and how you deliver that knowledge is bar none, in my humble opinion! You seem like you were a teacher/instructor in another life! Thank you for all you give to us.. xo

Your channel has been so helpful since I began using tretinoin. Love that you’re so thorough! Really enjoying your channel.

Thanks for the tips! I'm only a little bit over a month into uses tret and I've been trying to get as much moisture repairing products as I can. It's still so shocking that you don't have more subscribers... you're definitely one of my favorite KZreadrs! So informative and fun to watch. I hope you're doing well

Hi I've been on tretinoin for a year (currently 0.05%) every second night - I alternate with azelaic acid. I have rosacea and eczema prone mature/menopausal skin and have really seen a big difference. My skin is thicker, firmer and the cushion has returned. I skip it during a flare, but due to the strengthening effect of the tretinoin I have less flares anyway. I used retinols for a year prior to starting tretinoin and built my tolerance slowly/carefully. Tretinoin can have a lot of benefits in rosacea prone skin, but it is a slow process to get accustomed to it due to the extreme sensitivity we suffer from. it's worth it though and i would recommend it if you're able to tolerate it. Both rosacea and eczema flare and calm on an ongoing basis - both are chronic conditions. During the calmer times is when it is possible to build tolerance, but slowly and paying attention to how your skin reacts. My neck does not tolerate tretinoin so I use a retinol there and always buffer both with a moisturiser. Despite this i have seen real results although you need to be patient. It really took 4 - 6 months before I noticed a big difference, but the results have improved even more. Best wishes.

I really like this video content girl!! I've been using tretinoin for 6 months now and thankfully any purging/peeling has been minimal!! xoxo

Thank you, thank you. I just started tretinoin two weeks ago and I have oily, super sensitive skin. I appreciate this video so much.

I’ve been wanting you to create this tret content. I am on my 4th month of prescription strenght tretinoin. I’ve tried some of your calming and barrier supportive recommendations and i’m loving them. Thank you for all your sincere efforts. Thanks and God bless.

Love your tret videos!! I’m about to start and I’m building my arsenal😂 I LOVE bywishtrend polyphenols in propolis and the Purito Unscented centella serum!! They’ve been saving my skin from Azaleic acid purges! Thank you for all the awesome recs!!

With only two UV filters, I don't believe that the Hyggee sunscreen is strong enough to protect our Tret-skin from the damage of the sun. It might be a nice one for indoor activitives or a nice moisturizer with UV filters inside just like a lot of Korean sunscreens on the market. If you're using Tret, please stick with hard core sunscreens for better protection.

Seriously, thank you for this. I started a few months ago and had zero instructions on how to use it and messed my skin. Now I’m fixing the aggressive exfoliation and pulling back how much tretinoin I’m using. I wish I had this video when I started 😭

This! Exactly this is what I needed! Thank you!

This video was full of such good information!!! I have a tretinoin prescription from my dermatologist but I have recently stopped using it because I was peeling to the MAX, it compromised my moisture barrier and gave me so much more acne. After this video though, I might give it a shot again! Thank you!!!

This is an awesome video! I’ve been using OTC adapalene, and feeling frustrated at how much “tret face” that gave me, even though it’s not even a prescription tretinoin! 😩 About two weeks ago though, I tried layering it between two “moisture” steps, after my Krave Great Barrier Relief serum and before my Barr Centella Calming Barrier Cream- and that has been the most effective protection for me. I feel like I can finally move up from only using tret every 7-10 days, which I think will be really helpful. I am definitely going to get more serious about my hydrating toner though (that’s the #1 thing I’ve learned from you haha) and try more products with propolis, because that seems to be the ingredient I’m sleeping on! Thanks Kelly!

I have rewatched this video 3 times😂😂😂I have been on and off tretinoin as I tried to get it to work 3-4 times in the past but couldn’t get through the irritation. I am finally on month 4 of .025% tretinoin if only I had this video and recommendations earlier!! You’re amazing🤗🙌almost all of these tips I have had to incorperate through trial and error to get past the adjustment phase. Amazing advice for newcomers to tretinoin. Also “tret face” is sooo funny hahaha. I’m so excited for these product recommendations!! I am definitely going to try that honey mask. Also after going on tretinoin I can only use cream products for my makeup, never thought I would be a cream blush lover!

I am soooo interested in RNW ceramide serum! It sounds amazing!!!!

I've been using tretinoin 0.05 for 2 years now, i'm 20 now, and seriously you can start at any age, because any age can benefit from this - Results -Keeps my pores in check -Kills acne! YES -Plumps and thicken your skin -Helps with blackheads -Helps with hyperpigmentation -Overall gives you a clear skin I have no wrinkles yet .. but this is definitely going to help with time

Thanks for covering how and when to use retinol and other actives, Kelly. When I started, I did it all wrong, and ended up with infections from the worst eczema flare I've ever had. I was using prescription Differin and applied way too much on wet skin, right after using a spin brush with an exfoliating cleanser ... day and night! 😲 I should have read the insert. It took me forever to figure out what worked for my super sensitive, dry, dehydrated, eczema prone skin, with many, MANY fails (which is why I have a basket of rescue and skin barrier repair items 🤣). But I learned what to use and when from amazingly helpful people like you, Dr. Dray, Alice in the rabbit Hole, No BS Beauty and James Welsh, so thank you! 😙❤👍 I like to use AHAs and Vitamin C in the morning and my prescription .3% retinol at night, but use an OTC retinol (encapsulated) serum and cream as well. I actually just wrote out my current skincare routines and realized they sound crazy, even for a long K Beauty routine. But, my skin is like a sponge, especially in the colder weather here in 🇨🇦 Canada, so I need many layers of moisture and hydration. After I wash my face at night, it air dries so fast I have to carry a bottle of hydrating toner to spritz it as I walk into the room I do my skincare! 🤣 You're so right about hydrating before (and after In some cases) applying retinol, and skin barrier strengthening and soothing items really do help with toleration and are an absolute necessity for me!

I’ve been using Tretinoin for years and recently tried Curology...I LOVE the customized formula and the way the strength and formula can be easily adjusted. I love your approach to skincare and how you stress protecting our moisture barrier. Super enjoy all your content! ❤️❤️❤️

Kelly, you really have those telepathic powers !

Thanks for recommending Stratia Liquid Gold. I've been using tretinoin for five months now and most products from toners, serums, moisturizers and sunscreen would sting or burn. That changed once I started using Stratia Liquid Gold. My skin feels more resilient so it was obviously my skin barrier that was weak. I have sensitive skin too so your videos help me a lot.

You are a MIND reader! I just started my Curology journey tonight! Mine is .0005 Tretinoin, 4% Niacinamide, and 2% Azelaic Acid. Mine is for "Well-aging" and removal of sun damage spots.

I’ve been incorporating tret about a year now 1-3 x a week. I can Not use on my neck though. MAJOR irritation. I do love your tip about applying over moisturizer. That works well for me too.

Really good and informative! I have only one thing to add: if you feel like you did everything and you cant handle it,its not a shame to quit! I gave up on tret after 3 months. Retinol works better for me.

Great video👍

This is exactly what I’ve been waiting to see from You! I just switched from regular Tret .05 cream to curology with .05 tret, 4% niacinamide and 5% azelaic acid and I don’t know if I’m purging but I think I’m getting more small Bumps? I figured the curology base formula would suit my acne prone skin better but it’s still been a week and my skin may adjust. I’m 35 and over having acne lol. I’m just noticing my dark spots stick around longer which is weird. My skin isn’t sensitive but it just gets clogged up and each clogged pores leaves a dark mark so it’s very very annoying. Please continue to update us with your routine and products alongside Tretinoin! Also I’m very close to buying the Benton snail bee serum for that hyperpigmentation from old spots. But I can’t risk anything clogging my pores and causing more bumps. Ugh. Would you still recommend that as a morning serum while on Tretinoin for hyperpigmentation?

Check out skincarisma! Its a website for info on skincare, whether its fungal acne friendly, what some ingredients do, and if an ingredient may be comedogenic! Incidecoder and Paula's Choice also has information on ingredients, however they don't include if the ingredients are comedogenic.

I can't even dream of Tret, my skin is to sensitive . I did buy the Stratia Night Shift at your recommandation and so far so good :) I think i am going to need something more oclusive on top of it in the colder months and that sleeping mask might be just what i need . I just got yesterday the Skinfood Propolis Essence and i really like it, my skin didn't react at all and i had the feeling that today my redness was looking a bit better (i have some light rosacea on my cheeks that gets very easily triggered )

We have the same exact curology prescription!

Wonderful tret content! I would like to add another tret tip: layer a potent niacinamide serum as a buffer before your tret to reduce irritation. I usually layer The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% before my tret gel 0.05%, and my skin is less irritated. This combo has been scientifically studied and it works.

I did this as well. It worked at least for my skin. I wont have flaky skin or redness the next morning if i buffered with niacinamide first🙂

This is so informative! I’m on adapalene and my summer routine no longer works for me, suggestions you made are really helpful. The ceramide moisturizer sounds like something my skin desperately needs right now. Do you chemically exfoliate in any way parallel to this routine?

I already used retinol for about 6 months and it's feel good at first (i'm using The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% with squalene) because it's not make my skin irritated what so ever, but it really greasy for my oily skin type. So, yes i'm looking for the other retinol with higher percentage.

I’ll be starting soon my Curology stuff should be here Monday. 😬

I wish this video existed when I was a broken out teenager on tret! My moisture barrier didn’t stand a chance lol.

Perfect timing for me! I’ve been using curology since March, it’s been going really well and all Of the sudden; the last two night I’ve had a layer of skin on most of my face that is peeling off. I’m not bummed about it, it’s satisfying but it’s NOT cute! Haha The mystery for me is this: why has my tzone become super oily in the last month or so?

The benton goodbye redness centella sheet mask is aaaaaamazing for tret face!! Put it on in the morning for 20 mins & it keeps your face hydrated, calm & cool all day long. Love it 💖 Have to say I'm a little surprised that you encourage applying tret to the neck.. My neck is sooooo sensitive to tret or retinol, it BURNS so bad if I try to put it there but maybe I'm doing it wrong? Do you put tret on your neck?

I've been using tretinoin for 10 years, 2 months now. The first 4 years, I used it religiously: every night of the week. Then I just use it 3 to 4 nights a week as a "maintenance". I rarely get a pimple in the past 5 years since I slowed down in tretinoin usage. I'm just using it now for the "well aging" effect.

Thank you for this great video. So informative. I've just started using a retinol serum and surprisingly there is no irritation even when I use it every night. Does it mean it's too weak of a product? Most retinols don't state percentage...

@alyasafiraip

That can be the case, but some people just doesn't have any bad reaction from using retinol, after all retinol has to go through two steps before being active in your skin so it's a lot gentler than a prescription strength tret

Thank you for this video! Omg! I've restarted my tretinoin journey after a while and I had forgotten how bad the side effects are. I had first put it on in the beginning of my routine and the next day, it was bad. My skin was extremely irritated and anything I put on it burned and stung and was really red. My friend suggested to mix it in with my moisturizer and that's what I've been doing. But with that I also need to be careful because I had dotted tretinoin on parts of my face and did the same with my moisturizer and found that method to be too much for my skin. So I think mixing prior to application is the way to go. My skin is peeling though and I've been curious about the liquid gold and the rewind. I already have rosehip oil and I'm pretty sure that's a good one, right? What are your thoughts on the rewind while on tretinoin?

Hi, Kelly! You are right that now it’s perfect time to start tretinoin. I’ve started 5 months ago and what can I say, it was a journey 🙈 I was purging like crazy, but it definitely worth it! My skin’s never been better and it’s just the beginning 😊 now I’m using 0,05 % every night) For everyone who’s still thinking, give it a try, start slow and follow all Kelly’s tips 🙂 you won’t regret!

I'm using adapelene twice a week.. So far so good. Don't see such a huge difference, for now it's only o.k. Definatly going more barrier supportive moisturizer.

I haven't quite finished the video yet, but it looks like you're doing your entire routine BEFORE putting on your tretinoin. My curology prescription for tretinoin should be here tomorrow and I'm super excited ! I got it because of the great things it's done to your skin. But I've been watching other KZread videos on what to expect with retinols, and alot of people said you should put your Tret on right after cleansing BEFORE any other products that way it really penetrates without any barriers holding it up. Have you heard of that before? So now I'm confused as to where to add it in to my nighttime routine. However, mine is coming with Azelaic acid, ceramindes, niacinamide and tranexamic acid, so I'm not sure how that allows me to use my Tret before anything else, being as it's all mixed together as one product.

Not sure if you got any response. If you ever watched Dr Dray, a dermatologist, she explains that if your skin is sensitive or irritated it’s a good idea to put it after or mix it with moisturizer. She actually doesn’t recommend to put it on damp skin. It really depends on how you skin reacts.

I need help !! I’ve been on .05% tret for 15 or so weeks and I can’t get passed the peeling/dry dry dry skin... primarily on my chin/around my mouth. Nowhere else has really peeled except for around the 11s nothing like chin area. I was able to get up to four nights a week but have dropped back to three as the peeling is getting outta control. I’m laying on the big three Kelly mentions and use a lot of the same products, but nothing is really sorting it out. Thank god for lockdown I couldn’t risk going out in public as the peeling hits during the day like I don’t wake up with it. Makeup makes it worse too... but I try to avoid the trouble spots and really don’t wear a lot of that these days anyway.

Hahaha it was a weird adjustment for me! I used non-tret curology for many years and used about 2 pumps for my face. Now with tret I have to remember not to pump so much!

I’ve done two applications of retinol .2% so far. Woke up very irritated after the second application so I’m stretching out the days between future applications. Question. Do you get by on applying sunscreen just in the morning? Or do you reapply?

I’ve been using tretinoin for a year now and I cannot even get to every other night😶 I keep pushing but after 1 full year, I can still only tolerate it twice per week. Has anybody here experienced this?

Please if one does not have access to primera essence and the bamboo toner, can they use missha artemissa essence and isn't tree hyaluronic acid plus toner?

Thank you so so so much for this video. I’ve been using Curology for my tretinoin and the first trial bottle I got I used up super quickly. I was using like 2 or 3 pumps or more for my face because it didn’t feel covered at all. I tend to over apply my moisturizers so when that didn’t feel completely covered I used more of it. I never woke up with tret face the next morning at all, if anything my skin was super glowy and hydrated maybe a tad greasy but uh yeah... gonna use a pea sized amount like you suggest from now on and hopefully my larger bottle will last the two months lol 😅😅😅 Also do you know of any kind of retinol/ exfoliating body lotions or body washes that can help with resurfacing stretch marks or marks on the body?

@sleepychild9781

I've also heard that. It's possible that mixing the two could render the peptides useless. However, since retinoin is not meant to be used daily, you could add a peptide serum in the morning or on the other days of the week. Or just use it in combination with retinoin if the other ingredients in the serum are good.

Have you ever touched any product of MAMONDE?

I’ve used everything from the highest strength tretinoin to retinol and adapalene never peeled never experienced any redness or sensitivity I honestly think it does absolutely nothing to my skin 🙁

Is it safe to use a first essence in the same routine as retinol?

Anyone struggling with more obvious pores with retinol? I feel like it doesn't get covered enough 😅😭😭

Did you use tret after your moisturizer absorb into your skin? Also try to use them every other day if your skin still feels irritated. If after you did everything but your skin still doesn't feel good maybe tret really isn't for you and you should try other vit a derivative instead

No missha mugwort essence?? I'm surprised 🤣

Haha, I've been using the primera recently because it's been open longer!

Yanno... I enjoy your content but sometimes I wonder whether you have/had a day job working with young children, or people with hearing difficulties. The way you overenunciate words constantly makes me feel like I'm a kindergartner lol. That aside, it's kind of interesting how your skin kinda goes back after that first tret adjustment period. I started off oily, went very dry for a few weeks on the 0.1% tret, had to pack a few gallons of moisturiser in, then when I had to dial the dosage back to 0.025% because it was giving me severe dry eye my skin went right back to oily. Ngl I was kind of hoping that 0.025% will keep the dryness up - alas, it was not meant to be.
