Skincare Cope or Not?

[buddymaxxing]

when it comes to skincare i already know about retinoids and use them (before bed, and heavy layer of sunscreen during the day to prevent the sun from raping my face/neck/ears), and for the under eye area my plan is infraorbital implants / fat grafting in the future since my under eye area is decently deficient.

is a vitamin C serum actually effective for skin tone brightening and collagen production, is it worth the investment considering i already use a retinoid cream? and is a caffeine serum effective for improving dark circles?

I would stick with retinoids and wouldn't overcomplicate it

caffeine serum did nothing and vitamin c my skin reacted badly to it

was hoping for this answer tbh, c serum is annoying asf to buy and apply and store

If you have pigmetation vitamin c serum can help you, but if you have recessed infras you can do something better
