Hello to all people who have issue with acne. I am 22 years old, and since I was little girl, I suddenly got horrendous acne covering my face. I tried all acne medications available but it was no good. I even tried many diets and advice but in the end i got some metabolism disorder and I ended up with even more acne. My last hope was to try special laser treatments and when that failed too, it seemed I will never find solution. Then I run across this page. It’s name is: *AcneCureOnline. Com* It was impossible to believe, and advice from this site helped me to cure acne! After only 7 days I had first results and after less than two months my skin was free of acne. All this thanks to secrets from this site

I'm not surprised that benzoyl peroxide doesn't play nice with other actives. It always treated my skin very badly when I was using it. 😒

[@sigh_anna]

BP is actually perfectly fine with most everything, the only thing is you want to wait a few min before antioxidants because they would simply negate each other. They wouldn't react badly.

[@TsubataLately]

[@redpond77]

THIS was the skin care video I needed 3 years ago...so now, I just learned here not to use too many actives at one time, so that was why my skin reacted so violently (T_T)...thanks once again for helping the rest of us understand what, how and when to use (and not use!) these actives, your channel is GOLD!!

Anything I can do to avoid angry skin is appreciated! 😁As always, thank you, Renee! 👍

[@ecmontgomery]

Hi. I use tretinoin and have for years, but my dermatologist did say to use it only two nights a week because of black box warnings. I have only used twice a week for several years now and it is as good as when I had every night to every other.

[@hilaryb5234]

Thank you for this wonderful honest advice on less is more and alternating on actives. I love Paula's choice and use that line. But why do they tell everyone they can use everything together. It's like they push extra products for marketing gimmicks to sell more. That using all these actives are okay. Less is more, your skin has to get used to it. Alot of people need to know that, I just feel paulas choice doesnt demonstrate that to new customers, And I know it's not necessarily good to use salicylic acid and a retinoid together. Ugh its annoying. I also use adapalane and benzoyl peroxide together and the results are amazing!!!

You seem like a very chill person. Your voice is so soothing. Thanks for all the knowledge you pour on your Chanel. I greatly appreciate it

[@pajamamama5965]

Such good advice here. Before I knew anything about skin care actives, I wanted to try ascorbic acid to help with melasma, so I researched that and found a serum to try, since I don't have access to Retin-A. I used ascorbic acid 2 months and was absolutely Blown Away with what it did for my skin! That's when I got obsessed with actives and learning about anti aging and found your channel. Thank you Renee! Now I use adapalene and niacinamide at night and ascorbic acid and Alpha arbutin in the mornings. My skin looks amazingly better and I really do look younger. I'm overjoyed

[@rubyrayne8]

Is alpha arbutin brightening for you skin? I bought it but haven’t been consistent with it so haven’t noticed a diff. But perhaps I should add it to my morning routine before I give it away.

What brand do you all use for your BP? I am a religious user of Tretinion - / hydroquinone 5+ years - ( on 4 months off 3-4) so why would I use a BP? And should I? That has always confused me. I guess I could google it lol but communication and great skincare chat is key to life these days! Also what AHA/BHA are you all using for a switch? ? I’m liking Drunk Elephant BUT recently purchased The Ordinary. Must say very impressed! Thank you. ❤️💋💋

[@GracefulBeautyWithSheri]

@@amysophia1314 I don't use BP anymore. This was years ago before I found better acne treatments. I think it's good for teens and younger people. I mean it's ok for adults too but it's very drying and there ar better ways to treat adult acne. I had hormonal acne so the BP didn't work for the hormonal acne. I ended up trying a DIM supplement that worked miracles on my hormonal acne to get rid of it. For BHA, my fave is Paula's Choice 2% BHA liquid. I've used it now for 20 yrs. Amazing for large pores and gives skin a beautiful glow. For AHA, my al time fave is by Montarbo Skincare Lactic Brightening Treatment. 1 use and my skin was transformed. It is the BEST I've ever tried and I test a TON of stuff. The Ordinary's 10% LA is quite nice too and such a great price but to be honest, I get better results with Montarbo LA. Never cared for the DE baby facial. It's nice but overpriced IMO. I prefer lactic over glycolic for my skin too. Don't forget your sunscreen! 😘

[@maenad1231]

Bonus: While benzoyl peroxide does degrade most tretinoin formulations this is much less of a problem if you use microencapsulated Tretinoin. If there is still concern you can utilize BPO contact therapy _(apply the product, wait 3-5 minutes then thoroughly wash it off)_ wait a couple minutes then apply the retinoid. Contact therapy with BPO is nearly as effective as leave on therapy

I also have my Pharmacist ( a Formulation Pharmacy) mix my Tretinoin w Niacinamide and it’s super creamy as you stated. It’s the best. I use .25 so I can actually use this every single night. Then I mix in my 4% hydroquinone ( ZoSkin) together on 4 months off 3 months ... I have had Fractional CO2 laser peri-orbital as well. But this is YEARS OF baby steps. I had to scale back from .5 % ton.25% for 2 years then tried .5% again and it’s just not worth it to me ... I’m definitely hyper sensitive so ... looks as if I’ll be a .25 % gal for my 40s! 😂 Question: May I ask what you recommend for the Azelaic Acid ? And your choice for the AHA/BHA? I was thinking about The Ordinary? I use their Squalene and Marine Algae serums ... love them .. just started the AHA/BHA journey. Drunk Elephant is the one using about 3 xs a month - depending on my skin. Then I stop my Tretinion... ( RetinA) as of course mixing the 3 would be a disaster for my sensitive skin. Any suggestions would be amazing. My only concern is still an eye cream. I know Dermatologist do not usually feel they are necessary, but I must have a fragrance free hydrating Eye cream. I started the Biopelle Vitamin K ( it’s the only product under $40! ) and then I’m stuck! Their amazing Eye creams are just too expensive- I go threw them way to fast. unfortunately... If anyone has a suggestion for a hydrating Fragrance free eye cream ( I do get Use RetinA every night so no need for Retinol Eye .. IM STUCK! And it gets frustrating! Sorry so long.

The ordinary says not to use nicinamide and vitamin C together?

[@xanderstuivenberg9704]

Probably because they say that vitamin c can become unstable when combined with water based formulas

[@gothamista]

Its fine to use them together. They tend to err on the side of intense caution. It's only an issue when formulating the ingredients together and in very high concentrations. And it won't affect our skin.
