Since adding tretinoin last summer, I've eliminated products from my routine. With winter dryness, my skin was flaking from the tretinoin. I stopped using cleanser in the morning and I added a very hydrating moisturizer under my tretinoin and a very hydrating sunscreen during the day. The flakes were gone within two weeks.

@Dr Alexis Stephens - I love your educational presentations that collectively are the operating manual to care for skin of color. One skincare mistake about which you had previously admonished, and which I since corrected, is not included in this "top skincare mistakes" video: . Because i made that correction, I have since rarely experienced any breakouts. Upon my relocation back to South Florida you will have a new patient. Thanks for teaching me about proper and effective skincare. My skin now looks great, largely due to my adherence to your suggested care methods, order and combinations of actives, and of evaluating products and making purchase decisions based upon your critical product reviews. THANK YOU!
