This shit is low effort and only so you can see some products I tried, literally water if you already know a bit about retinoids. This thread will explain how I achieved a flawless skin texture in a short period with certain products. I will try to show exactly what I used to achieve this, as I already saw detailed skincare threads. So you can compare yourself with me, I am 16 and all my acne was caused by hormones + puberty. Some may be due to excessive supplement intake.

BASICS OF SKINCARE:
First of all your skin is not a car. It is a sensitive organ that wraps all your body. So be sensitive with it.
- First thing when you wake up, wash it with cold water. Not freezing cold.
- When you are taking a shower, don't wash your face with really hot water that you are washing yourself with. That will make your skin more sensitive and harm it.
- Use a cleanser and SPF sunscreen. I will dug this deeper on the following sections.
----------------------------------------------------
Products I Have Used:
First of all I would like to state that none of these products were prescribed to me and I bought them all from local pharmacies in Thailand (which I visited for infraorbital fat grafting surgery
) I will also state their prices and sides that I experienced.
Tretinoin 0.05%
I started directly with 05 but if your skin is sensitive use retinal or 0025 tret.
Use only on dry skin with sandwich method or moisturize afterwards.
This is the main topical retinoid that I used and I absolutely loved it. I bought 10mg tubes of Tretinoin for only 1 Dollar.
It really helped with getting rid of the severe acne and it never burned. Only side I experienced was initial purging and peeling so don't experiment with it just before an important event.
----------------------------------------------------
Niacinamide Spot Serum
This was literally magic in tube for me BUT it burns as hell. It works really fast but the first 10 minutes you apply it makes you scream in pain. This product isn't only niacinamide so I will write some of the ingredients down for you:
IPMP
Allantoin
Glycerin
Citric Acid
Phenylethyl Resorcinol
This tube costed 2 Dollars
It's called Liposome Acne Spot Serum.
----------------------------------------------------
Azelaic Acid 20%
Same shit as tret , I started directly with 20% but if your skin is sensitive use 15%.
Azelaic Acid mostly helped with redness and discoloration. No major sides, only itching after appliance for 10 minutes.
This costed 15 Dollars for 30g tube.
