š„ Stop Wasting Your Tretinoin! š„
Yes, tretinoin is the gold standard in anti-aging (right after sunscreen, of coursef), but are you using it the right way?
Letās clear up a big myth:
š« Do NOT mix tretinoin into your jar of body cream.
Youāre diluting its power, messing with its stability, and honestlyā¦ wasting your money.
š¬ Hereās how to actually use tretinoin for real results:
ā
Use body retinol lotions that are already formulated for safe, effective full-body use.
ā
Want to use prescription tretinoin on your body?
Do it the smart way:
ā¢ Apply moisturizer to clean skin
ā¢ Use a small amount of tretinoin on targeted areas (hands, arms, face, neck)
ā¢ Seal with another layer of moisturizer
āØ Bonus: You only need to do this 1ā2x a week!
And donāt forget the golden rule: SPF every. single. morning.
