Thank you to everyone for your questions! Please don’t take it personally if I didn’t answer yours. Understand that I'm neither a dermatologist nor an expert on skincare, and I received numerous questions that I did not feel comfortable answering as it’s not my place for me (or anyone for that matter) to answer such individually-directed questions over the Internet regarding the use of a prescription product. What I CAN do, as always, is speak to my experience using tretinoin and topical retinol products for over 16 years; therefore, I addressed the questions about my personal experience and offered suggestions where I felt I could comfortably give my advice. Remember, too, that everyone’s experience using tretinoin and/or retinol will be unique and different, because everyone’s skin is unique and different. The questions I did not answer are those that would be best suited to ask your prescribing physician so that he or she may guide you accordingly along the best possible course of treatment for you depending on your individual skin type, needs & preferences, and goals. I appreciate your understanding.

I love that you care enough to do what people ask like "smile close to the camera ". As if they are trying to get you to "expose" something. Of course skin does that when a person squints or smiles. You can clearly see what your are using works. People are silly and you're a doll. I'm 100% going to try you skin regimen when I'm no longer breastfeeding. ❤️

Jennifer Myers thanks so much for getting back to me. I watched a few more of your other videos after I posted this comment. I like that your videos are so full of commonsense and that your recommendations are affordable. I don't think CeraVe is sold in South Africa where I live? I've never heard of it but will definitely look out for it. I've seen Cetaphil cleanser on our shelves but I haven't noticed a moisturiser. They seem to love Olay and L'oreal here which I don't love! But never mind skincare, I saw your video about contracting the coronavirus. That is SO scary. Glad to hear you're feeling a little bit better now. You are fortunate to have your family close by.

Jen Glass Can’t tolerate using it everyday so I use it every other day directly after washing my face. I also wash it off in the morning because my sunscreen piles up and becomes disgusting if my fave isn’t completely clean. On the rare days that I don’t go out and basically spend all my day sleeping in I don’t even bother washing it. Doesn’t irritate my skin.

Boone Lo I do think conventional beauty is gene dependent. Try as I may I am never going to be as beautiful as Naomi Campbell or other supermodels but this product gave me the best personal skin. So even if others don’t swoon at the sight of me I feel more confident and genuinely in love with the skin I have right now. Only thing is it caused a patch of hyperpigmentation around my mouth so I am trying to fade it out.

Then I stayed for the rest of your videos. To attest to the effectiveness of your lifestyle, I began drinking bone broth to break my fast. I've been doing it for 3 weeks now and can say that my skin has looked so much brighter and supple as well as my acid reflux has diminished because the broth preps my stomach in the morning for food throughout the day. These healthy habits have also encouraged me to incorporate your other lifestyle suggestions, mostly putting care of myself first. Thank you and I look forward to your continued journey on youtube.

Thank you so much Jennifer! You are so beautiful and patient. I have done a bit research about retinoid and saw a statement of a doctor that makes me a bit worried. Can you please answer whether the following statement is true or not: He says that, “if you plaster way too much retinol on in your 20s, 30s, and 40s, you could be depleting all of those healthy cell divisions that you really should be storing for cell divisions further down your lifetime”, because the human skin can only divide a finite number of times. Again, thank you so much! I’m looking for more videos from you ^^

This is such a great video! 🙏 I started my over the counter retinol 2 months ago, and my skin loves it! No peeling or red or discomfort anything, and the results are great! ( my skin was always looking good and smooth, but retinol makes it better by shrinking pores and give a glow to the face) I was already using Elizabeth Arden retinol capsules two years ago except I have no idea what retinol was. I guess that could be the reason why there is no side effects now. I am 26 now and am planning to stick with retinol products for a long time. I am using Murad retinol serum and creams as well as Elizabeth Arden retinol capsules. And I just ordered the Neutrogena one and the honest beauty one, can’t wait to try both! I love the Murad one buts it a little bit pricey.

Hello Shuangzi it's great that you have got such amazing results. But one should be very very careful on taking vitamins(internally as well as topically) which are fat soluble. Even if applied topically, it can higher the levels of vitamin A in the body. You are topically applying it and taking it internally as well. You might develop some serious side effects which you will not be able to relate with the vitamin A you are taking. You can develop hypervitaminosis Or may feel dizziness, nausea , liver damage or even some chronic disease. I am only showing my concerns for you..don't take it otherwise holy soul🙂. Fat soluble vitamins needed to be taken very very carefully. You can google about it and then decide what is good for you. I am a biology student that's why I couldn't stop myself from replying you. I have just started tretinoin but I will make sure to use it minimally so that my health is not altered. Have a good health and skin.

You've inspired me! I just started tretinoin, as a senior. I have used sunscreen religiously since I was 22, and used AHAs and BHAs since my early 30s. I just started using castor oil last year. (I like Jojoba and squalane too, and have used snail mucin for about a year.) Now that I am using tretinoin, I have stopped the extras, because I want to simplify. So, tret and castor! In this short time, I can already feel the difference, and see more glow using the tretinoin. You are my inspo!

It is a total game changer; no doubt. It's the only thing I do for legitimate so-called anti-aging of my skin, and my results have been remarkably satisfactory. I couldn't be more pleased with my experience.

I LOVE seaweed, however I can only eat a very small amount because more than that and my body has an inflammatory-like reaction. My bowels feel aggravated and my skin becomes sensitized with a few itchy rashes. I think it might be the carrageenan in the seaweed, or the iodine. Such a shame though because it contains minerals, vitamins and nutrients. It also makes for a great snack. If interested in seaweed, look for Kaiso salad mix. It’s a Japanese mixture of dried seaweeds, some of them are actually very pretty looking. You rehydrate them with water. The woman at my Japanese specialty store told me to dress it with a sesame dressing and it is delicious that way.

Did you experience something similar when you started using tretinoin? Thank you so much and sorry for the long comment 💜

I use retinol 0.2% with esqualano and it works so well for me 🙂. I use it every day, I had thr harshness and the pimples at first, which really scared me... but now it's OK. I've used the highest SPF my whole life and now that I'm almost 41 people think I'm 28... not kidding. Gene's, yes, but I don't smoke, don't drink and I've cut sugar almost a year ago... 💫
