Tretinoin starting out

[FentMaxxer2]

Its my first time buying and using tretinoin (from greeno.ro) and im wondering which one to get. 0.05% or 0.1%. Both are the same price so im curious on the cost effectiveness.
The reason why im wondering what to get is because i dont really know the side effects on what could happen if i use too strong of a concentration like 0.1%.
Im getting the tret because i heard it can thicken skin and make my undereye skin less thin and make the dark circles less apparent.
Also im 16 so tell me if this has any effect on hormones and anything important.

Please start with 0.05% the higher one is for experienced people with 1 or more years experience. It alsi doesn't have many advantages will just irritate your skin more

If it's first time you're using it which I assume, get 0.05%.

0.05% but don't use it too often in the beginning or your skin will not like it lol

Start with 0.05% then after a few months move up to 0.01%

Switch to 0.025% if 0.05% is too harsh

Mark as solution

def start with 0.05% and do it only ~3x a week at first. after a year or so, if you’ve had a smooth experience w 0.05% (little to no drying n irritation) you could try 0.1% at your own risk. 0.05% is alr relatively strong, but it all depends on your skin type. also be careful if using other actives at the same time.
