Skincare question

[markenzie]

Can I not use moisturizer after tretinoin? and Is it normal to have new acne or pimples after using new cleanser o product for a day or 3?

moisturizer is meant for right after you shower to restore the protective layer of your skin, you're supposed to use tret at night.

it's fine to mix them if you're only just starting to use it.

new skincare products can make your skin break out, it's normal.

Tretinoin gave me severe cystic acne, was on it for 9+ months. Had to hop on accutane because it got so bad

All you need for good skin is .. Diet + A simple moisturizer.

No facial cleansers, nothing else included. Just a moisturizer and what you eat are only things that's not cope.
Imagine using a facial cleanser, your skin has natural oils, why would you wash them away? It's what protects your skin and gives you a nice glow.
