Is tretinoin even worth it for MEN? It seems to give most guys a plastic Ken Doll effeminate look?

[Schizoidcel]

At least most guys with b/a pictures on reddit:

Does the tret "glow" even look good on most guys (straight and non-asian)? Has anyone found a guy who actually looks better post-tret except for lack of acne? If so please share. Looks kinda unnatural to be honest.

No dont do it

I'm taking a break from it anyway since my face is burning. I don't have the "glow" yet but if I do I'll probably look even gayer tbh

they look gay because of their face not skin. just look at thom strijd

Is he even on tret? Looks like a Chad blessed with great genes. I suspect tret is doing more than we think with subcutaneous fat loss etc potentially changing the shape of the face.

Don't over use it 2 times a week will give you great skin but not super oily baby skin like this

Interesting. I think it's the fresh skin from increased skin turnover that reflects light and looks kinda weird & oily

 

[eduardkoopman]

the shiny-gay face. Tretinoin doesn't make the face sjiny. It's their oily or shiny moisterizers that make it gay ass shiny.
They need to find a matt moisterizer.

Very important as a dude, not to have a shiny face.
because it looks like you put in stuff on your face. AND that's a trun off.
As a dude, you have to look as natural as possible. Like asif you only wash yourface baily, but use zero products.

People want dudes to be waking up as Chads in the morning. So you gotta looks as natural as possible.

Cope they look better

They probably also use sunscreen that is shiny

these guys have prototypical gay faces that's why

looks ugly cuz bad bones. They still look better

Tret is godsend, what a pleb.

 

[EverythingMattersCel]

Those are guys are using the gel formulation. The unnatural glow comes from the gel not the cream. I have used the cream since May and got no "glow". Tbh it hasn't got rid of my acne completely either. Epiduo did (2.5% benzoyl peroxide + 0.1% adapalene).

I need to see if its bad for skin moles
I already had some cancerous ones

 

[BrickTop]

These guys are defo gay in spirit so will look gay no matter what tbh.

Agree with posters above that shine is exaggerated due to applied oils/lighting.

Either way tret helps most ascend if balanced out with other masc traits.

Im minoxbearding rn then will go back on Tret to reverse any potential skin damage. So shiny forehead & cheeks with designer stubble will be good contrast.

Holy cope

Their gay face is not because of their skin.
It's because of their gay face.
Their skin looks incredible and would look great on a masculine face.
Tretinoin is legit.

I've been using tretinoin for 1.5 years and haven't noticed any difference in my collagen reaped skin

You should try stronger versions like 0.05 if you're not noticing any side-effects like irritation.

 

[Soalian]

Tretinoin burned through my Under-eye fat, now I look like a Meth addict, thanks Test.

I'm coping with fillers, and I'm doing the other guy's hooding technique with the use of ice cubes, but it's mainly coping.

Where did you apply it? You applied it directly under the eyes or on the cheekbone?

I've heard that a lot. I'm also noticing my undereyes looking more hollow recently but it could be coincidental (or the minoxidil, jfl). I'm starting to think tretinoin is mainly aimed at people over 40-50+ or if you have severe acne that no other medecine can fix.

Yeah I was getting some irritation on 0.05 but started buffering my moisturizer under if. Just went up to 0.1, hopefully it helps more. I wonder if there's a peak with long term tretinoin usage or if your skin continues to improve over time.

I would GIGA ascend with this skin but tretinoin only gives me shit jfl. Started trying on february and used it for periods of 3 days up to 2 weeks and my skin always only looked worse, never better. So gave it up many times.

 

[MewingJBP]

fuyck mirin skin improvement gonna get this shit as soon as I can buy bitcoin

I'm using right now some guys routine from looksim
cleanser moisturizer, vit c, hyaluronic acid niacinamide and sunscreen

 

[Deleted member 7752]

Ive been using 4 months now
Minor results atm expecting more closer to the 8 month mark

However in terms of fat pad loss, I've defo not have any of much at all as my bloated areas I have trouble with are still the same

Undereyes have always been pretty shit and they haven't changed much if at all tbh.
I don't apply under eyes but I do on Malar area and cheekbones, some may get under eyes when I sleep

Gonna put ice cubes undereyes to dry help the fat pad just like the upper eyelid hood max

Just because you don't wanna endure your tret usage you can't cotten pick fallacies these guys are not even joking gay

 

[Britmaxxer]

they probably applied it just before the pictures, or have other products on top of it. as they are fags this is very likely. (not that skincare is gay, but being a reflector definetely is)

 

[coolguy1]

Thats because only fags and woman will post their results on forums like that

 

[looksmaxxed]

those faggots are using god knows what else on their face. tretinoin doesn't do that
