/thread....
what kind of beta carrotene should i take (amazon?) ? (i cant carrotmaxx)
the only thing astaxanthin has done is aggravate my rozacea
my skin is death tier with rozacea and hyperpigmentation, sunburns and wrinkles and doesnt seem to recover no matter how much tretinoin and cleanser/moisturizers i throw at it
i will rope soon at this point

What dosage and frequency Trentinoin are you using, it literally gave me god tier skin and I barely wash my face

Co2 laser is always an option, expensive but worth it

God tier skin how? Did you start moisturizing more?

Yes ofc, cetaphil face wash and cerave face lotion after, and .1% trentinoin once a week, started with 0.25% to get my skin used to the irritation. I haven’t had acne in ages with this combo

astaxanthin does nothing​

you can use betacarotene/lycopene combo but you need to get sun with it also

Your astaxanthin is probably faked. Most is fake. What specific product is it?

Try lycopene.
Or try melanotan.


I haven't got the answer too

Just experiment with serums and toners. It worked for me

Ok dude look tretinoin causes REDNESS IRRITATION in many people. Ive used tret for acne with super super sensitive skin and the redness from tretinoin has never went away and I've used every strength from .25 to .1 strength for acne. All of them have me the same amount of redness but only the max strength one cured my acne so I just deal with the redness and use the max strength tretinoin. It causes some slight redness. Vitamin E cream has completely cured my problems with skin redness and I have super super sensitive skin all other products make the irritation 100x worse.

Also tretinoin makes you more sensitive to sun you are just asking to look 40 years old if you go in sun on tret without sunscreen. I amuse astaxanthin as well 10mg daily now brand off Amazon and no results but only a few days in. Tried beta carotene many times no results for like 2-3 weeks at a time. It made my hands orange though one time. Don't pray for results from all this shit bro it's mostly cope.

Well, kinda. It’s in part which gives red colored aquatic animals their appearance. Shrimps have magnitudes more than salmon though:

Dunno, I personally don’t care about astaxanthin tbh. As it doesn’t give skin color changing effects (from personal experiment) like beta carotene or lycopene does
