1. Skincare ($50–60, cheap but important)

Get the basics: cleanser, moisturizer, and sunscreen.



CeraVe is a solid option, but make sure you pick products based on your skin type (oily, dry, or combination). If you’re not sure, just look up how to figure out your skin type.



For sunscreen, go for something invisible or tinted—both are good depending on your preference.




Side effects: None.

2. Accutane (only if you have serious acne)

Costs around $100 depending on where you get it.

Why:

It reduces oil production, which helps clear acne and can make your skin look smoother.



Side effects:

Dry skin/lips, joint pain, headaches, possible hair thinning.

---

3. Minoxidil + Tretinoin (budget-friendly combo)

• Minoxidil: ~$10
• Tretinoin: ~$15

Minoxidil:

Helps with hair growth. Can be used for scalp, eyebrows, or beard.

• Side effects: headaches, irritation, sometimes heart palpitations
• Typical use: about 1ml once or twice daily

Tretinoin:

Good for improving skin texture and reducing acne scars.

• Side effects: dryness, redness
• Use a pea-sized amount at night

---

4. Hair products ($30)

Pick products based on your hair type (straight, wavy, curly) and thickness.



General idea:

• Straight/wavy: matte clay or sea salt spray
• Wavy/curly: gels or curl creams
• Curlier hair: heavier creams like shea-based products

Also make sure you’re using a decent shampoo and conditioner that suits your hair.

5. Other small things

• Eyebrow trimmer
• Eye drops (for clearer eyes)
• General grooming improvements
