Is my workout routine optimal for the VTaper/Model Aesthetics. Also is my skincare routine good? Any tips on anything’s? A few things I worry about are, if I’m doing enough or too much tricep work, I know I’m at a 1.6 bicep to tricep ratio, but I want to make the bicep stand out and having too big a tricep will give the sausage arm look, not the model look. And I’m doing no front felt because it will make shoulders look rolled forward and I hit it enough with my benching. Any tips, thanks!

SKINCARE:
Morning
1. Cleanser: Gentle cleanser (or just water).
2. Moisturizer/SPF: SPF 30+ moisturizer. (Must use every day).
Night
1. Cleanser: Gentle cleanser. Pat skin dry.
2. Moisturizer (Base): Apply a thin layer of night moisturizer.
3. Wait: 15–20 minutes. (Skin must be bone dry before the next step).
4. Tretinoin: Apply a pea-sized amount for the whole face.
5. Moisturizer (Seal): Apply another layer of night moisturizer on top.
Rules for Success
• Frequency: Start with 2 nights a week (e.g., Monday and Thursday) for the first 2 weeks.
• The No-Go List: STOP using the weekly exfoliant scrub. Let the Tret do the work.
• Less is More: Using more than a pea-sized amount will not clear acne faster; it will only cause peeling
