After rotting on this site for 14 months I took action
I still have to quit smoking use betacarotene and mt2 to get even better results.
Any suggestions.
Honestly the glow is too much I was already asked why I'm I shining.
AM : Moisturizer
Moisturizer
PM : tret cream 0.05%.
I mix a big pea sized amount of tret with 1.5x the amount of moisturizer IN MY HANDS BEFORE APPLICATION and use it on my face. I only ever tried this method, I like it because I can spread it onto my eyelids without fearing burning.
Sides :
Day 1-7 irritation redness.
Day 3-10 : little peeling around the mouth
Day 1 - 20 : Stinging sensation when I applied moisturizer (means the skin absorbs and was thirtsy)
Day 7 - 30 : skin sensitivity meaning If i scratch my face it hurts 3x more than usual, My skin would sting if my face was resting on a pillow in such a way that it stretched my skin. It felt thin.
Day 20 onwards : glow glassy skin
No purging.
My forehead wrinkle disappeared almost completely in 5 days I was dumbfounded. It's not visible in pictures.
I never use a cleanser, only water. I never exfioliate.
In the first 15 days I'd apply lots and lots of moisturizer, sometimes 4x per day because my skin was super dry, really massaging in circular motion my cheekbones and my upper eyelids. It was stinging a lot (2/10 pain) but It means it's absorbing moisture.
Now when I apply moisturizer it doesn't sting anymore.
I skipped day 6 because I felt my skin could not handle it.
