TRETINOIN USER MORNING ROUTINE // WINTER SKINCARE

[@juliagardner33]

I cannot even imagine washing my face without this little brush, foreo has really great gadgets

[@jennarubis1]

Right?! Love it 💗

[@annashagal1269]

Your skin looks lovely! I actually use the foaming cleanser just once, in the evening, not to overdry the skin....and yes I do use the Luna brush as well. In the morning I just wash my face with cold water...

[@jennarubis1]

Love it!

[@claudfizz1012]

Such a doll! Thank you for your videos! 😘

[@thedarknightme]

Hi. I started my tretinoin already. Im two weeks in. So far so good :)

[@jennarubis1]

Yahoo!! I am so excited for you. Tretinoin will change your life! Just a heads up - most people purge - stay strong during that phase - it is worth it!

[@danslesbrasdemorphee4181]

Same ! I started a month ago, taking advantage of lockdown here in France haha and so far my skin's fine, I've only been using it once a week until today, just made a first attempt of introducing a second day, hopefully my skin will not make me pay for this too much ^^ Good luck with your journey !

[@nancysilva9701]

Hi! Love ur content!! Do you have an updated morning skincare routine? What mineral sunscreens do you recommend? Mineral and chemical or hybrid?

[@Lulu-xl5cm]

wow thats's brilliant! I have both the UFO2 and Bear! I didn't think of using the mask serum with this :D Thank you!!

[@TrulyBeauty]

Love this! ❤️ You're gorgeous! 😍😍😍

[@jennarubis1]

Thank you Truly Beauty! 💗💗💗

[@ann-marie808]

Awww I was so happy when I saw you were using cetaphil before. I may switch to Cerave since it looks like it’s great for you

[@jennarubis1]

I still love the cetaphil gentle skin cleanser! There are some KZbin videos that compare the two of them and the Cerave seemingly comes out a little ahead - so I decided to switch and love it. The cetaphil one is still great though!

[@chala3929]

Thank you for encouraging me to start tretinoin and stick with it. The purge was horrible but it’s slowly ending. I’m entering week 7 and cannot tell you how happy I am with my skin. Cerave really changed my tretinoin journey for the better. 💕💕

[@jennarubis1]

Yahoo, Chala! I love hearing this 💗💗💗

[@cristinitaandco]

What cerave do you use? The cleanser doesn’t seem to clean me. I haven use the cream tho. Is that one for the face or is for the whole body

[@jennarubis1]

Thanks Mina! And thank you for the feedback - it is much appreciated 💗🥰

[@rashasarandah1695]

Would love to see you compare the Naturium niacinamide or even the PC one but that one doesn’t have zinc. Also I just got my foreo bear last night! Excited to see what it does for me.

[@jennarubis1]

Yahoo! I’m excited for you too! I love mine! 💗

[@Dikeil]

so simple and effective!

[@jennarubis1]

Thanks, Dima!

[@Brenda-nb6zd]

I love using the Luna on my neck and chest :) I would've never thought to use the mask serum with the Bear that's so great! I should've known kbrand sunscreens were too good to be true, I'm now doubting all the SPF 50 ones I have on my wish list 😕

[@jennarubis1]

Hey Brenda! Thank you for your comments! And ugh - the whole SPF situations is so disappointing 😢 It will be interesting to see if a bunch of them are tested now by other brands too.

[@gemmacarter6364]

Isn't the mini Luna brush lovely? 😍😍 Picked up mine at a brilliant Black Friday discount here in the UK. 😎

[@jennarubis1]

They had such great deals for Black Friday! Oh my gosh lmk how you like the bear!!!

I just looked it up! Looks so sleek and cool :)

[@fionac3578]

I have a kinda weird question.. How do you go about having "couple time" late at night when your face is always smothered with tretinoin?? 😳😳 This is something that I personally struggle with lol.. any suggestions?

[@jennarubis1]

Haha yep! You have to do it beforehand. Otherwise there have definitely been times where I am like, “okay fine we can do it, but don’t touch my face” 😂

[@fionac3578]

@@jennarubis1 😂😂 hilarious thanks for the advice! Love your channel girl, it's so refreshing to see a real person who uses a decent amount of product & actually massages the product into their skin instead of these "fairy taps" that most KZbinrs do these days 🙄 I love Gothamista but if I have to watch her "press" 2 drops of another bloody serum into her face I might actually scream!! Thank you for keeping it real and creating interesting & honest content. Keep up the good work girl 🙂💜

[@deemahmclean1528]

Amazing routine !!! 😍😍😍 Except for the background music really annoying!

[@ortizdiana79]

Is it OK to use all those products on your eyes just like that? They don't get irritated? I've always heard the eyes are the most sensitive part of the face and you need to treat them gently.

[@sydney88888]

Your skin looks so amazing! I’ve enjoyed watching your journey. I’m using tretinoin as well, and I love what it’s done for my skin 😊

[@jennarubis1]

Thanks so much, Kristy! I am so happy with my skin, and I’m so glad you are too!

[@Christinaejohnson]

Hi Jenna! I have a question. I bought the foreo 3 and it came with the mask you are using in this video. If we do not have the bear how would u recommend using the mask?

[@jennarubis1]

You can use it with your Foreo 3 device after cleansing your face :)

[@pixiedust8899]

@Jenna Rubis does tretinoin make facial hair grow more?

[@jennarubis1]

Not that I am aware of.

[@spybabi]

Do you find the niacinamide leaves a sticky / tacky feeling and if so how do you deal with it?

[@jennarubis1]

Initially yes! But after I put my other skincare on top of it and allow everything to sink in, the tacky feeling goes away.

[@BossBrookeArmstrong]

I love the CeraVe baby moisturizing lotion. It also has niacinamide in it

[@jennarubis1]

I use Cerave cream on both my kids :)

[@TheSnowReport28]

Our entire family used CeraVe as well. My youngest has lots of skin sensitivities and cerave (Eucerin as well) work wonders for us all

[@jennifers_beauty_boutique9788]

How long ago was it before you stopped breaking out I'm getting the odd pimple still but I think it's down to masks as I have to wear one for work everyday but I'm not 100% sure I started my journey march ish so I don't think I'm still purging 🤔

[@jennarubis1]

Hey Jennifer! Thank you for the comment! So my purge lasted from month 3 to month 6. After that I got the odd pimple here and there for the next couple weeks. My skin has been totally clear since then, but I went ice skating a couple days ago with my kids, was wearing makeup and a mask, and was sweaty by the time we were done. So I have a small irritated patch of maskne today - very superficial and looks like it will be gone in a couple days.

Lots of love from India 😘

[@michellediamond2551]

No eye cream?? Thank yoü for sharing.

[@jennarubis1]

Hey Michelle! No eye cream. I have always thought it was a waste of money. But I have been so impressed with Asian (specially Korean) skincare lately that I may end up trying one from yesstyle :)

[@jennifers_beauty_boutique9788]

Eye cream is not necessary if you have a good moisturiser 🙂 if you look up Dr dray she tells you all about it she's a certified dermatologist x

[@mairelisgarcia3376]

Can you really use the mask gel with the bear device? 😘😘

[@jennarubis1]

You sure can :)

Thank you 😍😍 Love your skin!!!

[@jeniferr.lopezmota5586]

Hi Jenna, do you think it’s safe to exfoliate peeling skin from tretinoin with the Luna FOREO? I’ve been doing it in the mornings after sleeping with tretinoin and just want to make sure it’s safe.

[@jennarubis1]

The FOREO is so gentle. It has been very effective for me. Just pay attention to your skin and adjust your routine to be gentler if needed.

[@jeniferr.lopezmota5586]

@@jennarubis1 thanks for replying! That’s a good point. I forget that the settings can be adjusted and I probably have it at a very high setting. I will make it gentler. Love your videos!

[@hamselmshaer4969]

Hello jenna what do you think of hydroquinone2٪ with tritonoin

[@jennarubis1]

It is supposed to be SO effective! However, I recently tried hydroquinone cream from an online pharmacy and it smelled like perm solution. I couldn’t even keep it on my face bc of the smell - I had to wash it off. Then I just threw the whole tube of it away. Hydroquinone also makes me a little nervous because you have to use it for on and off periods or you can have a rebound effect where it actually makes pigmentation worse.

[@rmartini1050]

Great video

[@jennarubis1]

Thank you for the nice compliment 🥰

[@ann-marie808]

How did you deal with the purging? Did you get pustules (pus filled spots😷) ? Also did you see results straight away with the niacinamide? Thank you 💛

[@jennarubis1]

I sure did get pustules. My husband would always be like, “you should pop that, lol”. But I always just left them. They end up either hardening or popping on their own and really the healing process happens a lot faster when you just leave them. I would get some big ones where the whole area around the pustule would be swollen, too. My recommendation is to NOT TOUCH! Yes I literally noticed results with the Niacinamide after 1 week in terms of skin brightening. I love it.

[@ann-marie808]

@@jennarubis1 I wish I saw this before I popped them 😭 i am now on the 0.05 the purge seems like it’s never ending but I always come back to your videos to see what trets done for you. It helps to keep me motivated 😊😌I will take your advice and leave the pustules alone. Thank you Jenna💙

[@sydney88888]

@@ann-marie808 I would buy some pimple patches! A lot of brands sell them. I have some from Cosrx, which are hydrocolloid patches. Keeps pimples covered up as they’re healing and keeps me from picking at them haha. There are other patches that have salicylic acid in them to facilitate the healing process. I wear them overnight. I hope you can try them out because they really helped me keep my hands off my face ☺️

[@ann-marie808]

@@sydney88888 I’ve been contemplating for weeks and I think your right because I get pustules and the only thing I think of is popping them. I will get them online today thanks 🙏🏾🥰 I saw some on cosrx ones Amazon but it’s expensive since I want it before Christmas 😭

[@maine3336]

So its okay to use the niacinamid serum for the foreo bear ? I dont want to but theyre serum serum serum but i wonder if niacinamide serum is a conductor for microcurrent device

[@SS-tx3pv]

It’s been nearly two months! I use it under my eyes! I’m still feeling irritation on my face and eyes. Is this normal?

[@jennarubis1]

Yes tretinoin can cause irritation for a long time. Have you tried mixing it in with your moisturizer? That has become my fav application method.

[@sujatatuli7081]

Why I get facial hair after using tretinion

[@pokepulls3]

I follow a similar routine...I also use cereve lotion, but no matter how long I let the lotion absorb - my spf just seems to move everything around and makes my skin look flaky and gross. And advice? I just ordered dr. jart and super goop, but I'm afraid I'm doomed.

[@jennarubis1]

Do you exfoliate? Even if it’s just with a soft microfiber wash cloth...that helps tremendously

[@pokepulls3]

@@jennarubis1 that's what I'm missing!! I will try this! Thanks Jenna! 😘

[@shifamehra8523]

Should you just start using tret or start with a retinol serum and then adapalene?

[@jennarubis1]

Hey Shifa! You can do it either way. You may have slightly less irritation if you go in with a retinol serum, then adaptable me, but you can also just start with a low strength of tretinoin and gradually increase the number of nights you apply it. I personally started right with tretinoin :)

You and Elsa Pataky could pass for twins! Your skin looks great! I hope youre aware of the purito and klairs sunscreens contreversy & that you stopped using by now! Have you tried eurpoean sunscreens btw?

[@jennarubis1]

Thanks Nina you are so sweet! And oh my goodness someone informed me of the big scandal with the sunscreens - so disappointing. So you have any European ones you recommend?

[@ninalou4629]

@@jennarubis1 I tend to look for sunscreens that are the best for anti aging so usually one with high UVA PF so if the brand doesnt state the number of UVA I pass on it. -La roche posay Anthelios ultra cream spf 50+ (UVA PF 35) (fragarance free version) this one is quite wearable and feels like a moisturizer + no white cast. -The highest one I could find right now in UVA protection is the P20 Sunscare Kids 50+ spf (it has a UVA PF of above 50) No bad alcohols either which is good for a tretinoin user especially. Its flaw tho is that its quite greasy (a lot of high UVA sunscreens are) so you have to set it with powder and maybe skip your moisturizer as its emollient enough that it can act as your occlusive. No white cast either. Btw in europe it is mandatory that an spf of 50+ has at least a UVA PF of at least 20. So you can't go wrong with many! While with asian sunscreens spf 50+ PA++++ means that the sunscreen has a UVA PF of at least 16 and you dont really know more than that. Anyway thats why I stick to european sunscreens for anti aging purposes.
