I got the retinol uglies

[Deleted member 22124]

Like a rash on my left cheek. It's not so bad and I'm used to being subhuman tho so I'll just wait it out.

I was a retard for going out in the sun with it the other day even though I wore sunscreen and it was only for a brief moment.

I'm stupid. No wonder my mother abandoned me and convinced me to attempt suicide.

You're not stupid. You should just stay inside. It's where you belong. In the meantime.

Retinol doesn’t increase sensitivity to sunlight the rash is just due to purging or over application

Hehe yeah. I'll unironically be outside nighttime only except for when I'm buying groceries.

I mean I think it does. You're not wrong about the purging though. But everything I've read points to the conclusion that avoiding sunlight and using SPF is extremely important on retinoids.

I used it every other day at first and my skin didn’t get as irritated. Best to ease into it if you’re just starting. Also use a shit ton of moisturizer (sandwich method is good)

Do you think this one is good enough? I apply it everyday after NIVEA face wash.
