How to Use Vitamin A (Retinol, Retinoids & Retin-A) In Your Skincare Routine For Clear Skin

[@Jayhunny321]

I use retinol and Niacinamide every single night, my skin is so soft and dewy

[@shilpanandi5029]

Which bands do you use ?

[@Jayhunny321]

Shilpa Nandi retinol cream called ETRONG a German brand get it from amazon, and Niacinamide I get the 15% one from Revolution skincare

Thank you

[@findingnimo4707]

How do u use it,,I mean first niacin or first retinol?

[@angelinarusli3216]

Do you use the niacinemide first or the retinol first ?

[@emyrosa]

i was prescribed retin-a when i was 15/16 because my acne was so bad so don’t completely dismiss it for people under 20! it was a life saver for me

[@Spngbob100]

I love how you guys discuss the science so thoroughly instead of just throwing products at us without any information, thank you!

[@BeautyWithin]

It's so much more important to actually understand what's happening behind the products, and how they can work for us, or how they can be used negatively. When we understand how it works we can start enjoying experimenting and testing skincare the right way! 😋so glad you're enjoying the vids, thank you so much we love and appreciate you! 😘- fel

Y’all make sure you’re eating foods high in vitamin A as well! This includes bell peppers (all kinds of peppers really...) and carrots, (like they said already!) Consuming proper vitamins and minerals is just as important as topical skin care ☺️♥️ Peace babes! ☮️

My skin has improved so much since I started to actually educate myself on ingredients. My next step is introducing retinoids. My skin used to purge so much with all the actives but now my skin has calmed down and seems to like the active ingredients and new moisturiser :)

[@cmproc1]

@@sidraaslam3315 I would recommend the ordinary, cerave, tropic skin care and face theory as good brands to use. I would say everyone's skin is different so you need to find what works for you. I tend to use a natural toner followed by a moisturiser and a bit of oil mixed in. Then sometimes I will use a serum before my moisturiser but not always.

[@jdishmael001]

For all those who have asked in the comments..... yes you can use a toner before retinol. However, most skins will tolerate a non acidic toner best. Yes you can follow it with serum, moisturizer or oil, especially if you have sensitized skin. The regime should be to cleanse skin thoroughly, pat skin completely dry, non acidic toner ONLY IF YOU NEED IT, layer of RETINOL, then a serum or oil IF YOU NEED IT.. which you will only if your skin is naturally dry, sensitive/irritated, or dehydrated. Mild cleanser [milk,balm,cream types] in the morning. ...follow with your serums, and moisturizer, and FINISH always with sun screen if it is not in a HIGH spf in your moisturizer.

[@milaandconnor1022]

I use and love lotion p50 from biologique recherche, if I do 3days retinol and 4 days p50 is it enough to work?

Retinol should be used in the evening.

[@momoviver5]

Hiii I really love this channel for beauty info. It’s very professional and concisely explained. However, as an optometrist, I just want to mention that vitamin A in carrot doesn’t help eye sight directly. The vitamins A that the eye need is actually internal converted. Thus the carrot we eat need to be broken down to basics molecule before it get rebuilt back in the eyes. The main vitamins needed for macula is lutein. I think it’s great you guys doing these video but please don’t confuse the public even more, as we have already been taught the wrong info for decades if not centuries.

I've been using Vaseline my whole life. Now I'm 29 with dry spots on my face and fine lines under my eyes. I'm ready to look youthful again.

[@mariagabbott]

I started using 0.05% tretinoin for adult acne in my mid 20s. Its acutally beneficial for younger people with excessive oil production and acne scars as well. Double benefits as it combats ageing

[@HarukaJoge]

I use tretinoin 0.025 and I defiantly slowly got my skin use to it because my previous dermatologist gave me retin-a 0.075 and my skin wouldn’t stop shedding and peeling and she never told me to use hydrating products so it was really Bad. this time around I started low and slow and used lots of hydrating products and the results are 100% better with no peeling (but it does dry the skin so all the hydrating products help!)

[@Sujithabalan]

I am 29 years old and I started using ROC about 1 month ago. I mix it with my moisturizer and use it like Felicia recommended (two nights on, followed by two nights off). After just a week of usage, I found so much difference in my skin (so much brighter, glowy and looks oh so healthy). Best part? I don't break out as bad as I used to due to hormones before my menstrual cycle! I just can't stop raving about it!!! 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️

[@Babyduzzit]

Count Roy the sun makes your skin worse and your darkspots also it ages you faster so sunscreen prevents that . There are different sunscreens some are white some are clear

[@kai0171]

@Count Roy I'd recommend using it before then! If you look young now and you're not using sunscreen, using sunscreen alongside a skincare routine can help keep your skin that way as you get older and prevent it from showing the signs of aging! Of course, your skin will age, but you can significantly slow down the process with sunscreen and a skincare routine!

[@fooliana1441]

I used a retinol cream once with a dime-sized bit of the cream and it burned into my skin as if I had been out in the sun for weeks without sunscreen. Afterwards I read the bottle to only apply a LITTLE BIT i first time uses and apply every other day for the first two weeks, because applying a lot every day will burn your skin if you have sensitive skin like me. After I introduced it slowly into my skin routine, it really cleared away a lot of acne scarring and helped moisturize. Just know when and how to add new things into your beauty routine :)

[@Skali4President]

Beauty Within hi girls thanks for the video. Just a quick question. I use tatcha violet vitamin c serum. So if I want to add retinol can I use it with vitamin c serum. Or I should skip vitamin c on those day I use vitamin A

[@jonukutty]

April M thank you so much , but tatcha vitamin c , it’s been mentioned only use at night. So can I alternate retinol and vitamin c .

[@BeautyWithin]

Great question! I would definitely only use retinol at night, and so vitamin C is a very effective free radical scavenger and so works great in the daytime (with sunscreen). So if you're using the violet c from Tatcha at night, yes I would recommend you alternate the nights you use both 😊Hope this helps girl! 😘- fel

Dear Beauty Within team, I do hope you read this. I have concerns about Retinol and the Hayflick Limit. Please hear me out. Since each and every one of our cells has a limit to the number of times they can split and renew themselves - Hayflick Limit.

Granactive retinol Is retinol just weaker then let’s say a prescription Retinol. The difference is the percentage I believe. Also, you have to built your retinol tolerance. You shouldn’t start using prescription right of the bat because skin will react to it so staring with ordinary retinol is best then slowly go higher in percentage as you go.

I often hear from skincare you tubers that it would be more beneficial to use the vitamin c in the morning because it helps fight free radicals(which are from uv from the sun) and then follow up with a sunscreen.

So I’m in the process of fixing this, but will eventually slowly start incorporating other products. Just want to make sure I use this right and don’t cause another freak out for my skin.

I would still go with your serums, oils, and toner (preferably hydrating because retinol can be a tad drying). I would introduce the retinol every other night.

you may use all of the products you mentioned while using retinol. However, retinol must be applied FIRST to the skin after it is cleansed and dry. With your particular skin concerns I would follow it up shortly after application with a very mild thick serum and or thick facial oil. your skin will thank you

Do NOT use toners with retinoids or vitamin a. A lot of toners have alcohol and will make your skin dry out and be really irritated when mixed with retinoids. But you can use hydrated serums and oils defiantly

[@mizrateagema995]

JenWeaver I also get irritation and rashes when I use serum. Am glad to know am not alone

Loved this video and editing! I have been using Differin 0.1% for about a year and I feel it has greatly improved my skin’s texture and clarity.

[@BeachGirl911]

Can you please do a video about incorporating Tretanoin into your skincare routine? I have lots of products -serums, acids, moisturizers, masks, etc. - and I’m not sure what I can use with Tretanoin because I have so many active ingredients at my fingertips! I don’t want to irritate or inflame my 50 year old, acne prone skin. TYIA!

[@sarahgiggles9444]

Tretinoin (aka Retin-A Micro) is just a prescription retinoid so you can basically follow the advice in this video. As the prescription form it will be strong, so you can mix it with moisturizer a couple nights a week for a while to build your skin's tolerance to it. Search on Beauty Within's channel to find their video of products you shouldn't use together - you'll notice retinoids are listed a couple of times on it. Basically, if you're using a retinoid it should be the only "aggressive" thing you use on your skin that day. Keep the rest super gentle - wash, dry, tone, retinoid, moisturizer, maybe an oil, and that's it! Save serums, acne treatments, and chemical exfoliators for your "off" days when you're not using retinoids because mixing it all together can just make your skin super irritated and angry.

[@lulunurjahan1662]

[@jenlauren143]

I have been using the Murad youth renewal serum and I really have been loving this. Have you guys ever tried this? Love your videos. ❤️🥰❤️

[@priyapatel3284]

I have and it works really well!!!

[@jenlauren143]

priya patel I think so as well. A lot of ppl say it’s not great because it doesn’t say how much retinol is in it but I’ve noticed a huge difference.

[@charmainewyngaard5177]

I am not pregnant, my age is 63, I've only started to use retinol: bionike, now for 2weeks.

[@SaikyoRBX]

Please do a video about Dermaroller

[@Dolphin2-w9u]

Where does retinol fits in Korean skin care routines? When should retinol applied before or after essence/serum?

[@ravenuribes9460]

So I feel like I need a retinol, niacinamide, and vit C but do you think having them all is necessary? Maybe after doing the ABC videos you guys could do a video on how to incorporate all three, plus an exfoliant, in a weekly routine? Just seems like there aren't enough days in the week to alternate retinol, vitamin C, and AHA's/BHA's

[@jamvillamin1692]

You can prolly use vit C in daytime and then alternate retinol & niacinamide every night

[@jamvillamin1692]

And then once per week for your AHAs or BHAs

[@charmainewyngaard5177]

Does retinol takes away ageing spots, and how long does it takes to go away?
