Skincare help with tret

[jzas]

I got a la roche posay daily repair moisturizing lotion, and a hydrating gentle cleanser. Ive never been on tret before, but i got 0.1 strength, will I be fine doing it daily or will my skin die?

don’t do it daily just yet. in fact you shouldn’t even be starting with 0.1% (unless your dermatologist explicitly told you to.) 0.1% daily will most cause severe irritation and dryness and intense purging, making it difficult to be consistent. if you can, get 0.025% or 0.05% and even with either of those don’t do it daily until your skin adapts. after several months if not at least a year of using 0.025%-0.05%, you could start 0.1%.

wow well you must have an amazing skin barrier. still don’t do it daily to avoid any potential irritation, maybe every 2-3 days for the first week or two.
