skincare + minoxidil question

[Iteration]

what im thinking
am:
wash face with cleanser
1.minoxidil (beard)
2.sunscreen
3.moisturize

pm:
1.tret
2.wait like 30 mins then minoxidil
would the minoxidil applied at night, or moisturizer applied during the am dillute the effect of tret? lmk if there is a better order/way of doing things

you don't really need to apply topical minox twice since it technically has a half-life of 22 hours.

There are supposed to be no contraindications to mixing them, and tretinoin makes minoxidil more effective.

What I did was use the minoxidil 2 times (1 time in the morning and 1 time at night) and at night I first applied the minoxidil, waited for it to dry and applied the tretinoin. I stopped using minoxidil because the alcohol it brings along with the effect of the tretinoin my face was dry as shit so I would only recommend using it for brows alone unless you don't have dry skin issues.
