Why not? Should prevent skin from aging. I think I will try retinol.

How long does 30 ml of Retinol last?Don't use retinol it's literally just a much weaker version of retin a (essentially) and costs literally 10x the amount (supermarket vs alldaycurrycel )
Start with 0.025% every other day or 2/3 days,
Eventually work your way up to 0.1% nightly
Use moisturizer 15-25 mins after applying and use sunscreen when in sun.
Yes if use either use moisturizer (U should also use moisturizer day as night even if not using retinol/Tret at the end of morning/night Skincare routineHow long does 30 ml of Retinol last?
I use apply moisturizer and sunscreen every morning. Do I have to apply moisturizer in the evening if I use retinol or tretinoin?
I have been moisturizing only in the morning after shower and before sunscreen. I guess I should start to moisturize in the evening when I use retinol.Yes if use either use moisturizer (U should also use moisturizer day as night even if not using retinol/Tret at the end of morning/night Skincare routine
30ml should last about a month ish maybe a bit longer applied 1x a day
If you don't use moisturizer before bed your skin will get dry ,especially using retinoids,oh ok the prices I see in stores irl are like $50 for 30ml.I have been moisturizing only in the morning after shower and before sunscreen.

30 ml Retinol lasts a month if used 1 x day? That doesn't sound very expensive: 30 ml of 1% Retinol costs less than 10 dollars.
Retinol 1% in squalane from the Ordinary is less than 10 dollars for 30 ml. Is this good? It definitely isn't too expensive for me. I don't know if I would use it every night, but if it lasts over a month I guess it's the same to use it every night.If you don't use moisturizer before bed your skin will get dry ,especially using retinoids,oh ok the prices I see in stores irl are like $50 for 30ml.
Don't know as I've never used that specific product,but the ordinary as a whole is a very good Skincare line for cheap so I'd assume it is.Retinol 1% in squalane from the Ordinary is less than 10 dollars for 30 ml.

My skin is pretty youthful. My skin doesn't look old. I would use retinol to prevent aging, not to heal any damage that has already occurred (because I don't have damaged/aged skin). 1% retinol during nights seems fine for this purpose, right?
Yeah I mean if the Ordinary is a good brand then probably their 1% retinol is good too. They also sell some retinoids, dunno what's the difference. I think I will order 1% retinol from them and test it.Don't know as I've never used that specific product,but the ordinary as a whole is a very good Skincare line for cheap so I'd assume it is.
update?I ordered
The Ordinary Retinol 0.2% in Squalane 30 ml
The Ordinary Retinol 0.5% in Squalane 30 ml
The Ordinary Retinol 1% in Squalane 30 ml
I will start with 0.2% and proceed to 0.5% and 1% if it doesn't irritate my skin. I'm not sure if I will use it every night, but at least every now and then.
I also ordered Glycolic Acid 7% Toning solution because some stacylite cosmetologist in Tinder recommended it to me along with retinol.
