" How to use Tretinoin Correctly? Does Tretinoin actually work? How to get rid of acne using tretinoin? Tretinoin purging and side effects? How to svoid tretinoin purging and side effects? " if you have these types of questions about tretinoin then this video is the final stop for you as i will be answer literally EVERYTHING about TRETINOIN in this video.

This video will be like a ultimate guide one can have for tretinoin as i have indepth knowledge about it and would love to educate you on this magical product.

Now in our hot Indian climate, achieving Clear Glass Like is hard but never IMPOSSIBLE. In my case, i went from " Face Full of Acne" to "Clear Glass Skin" in just 30 days. Obviously thanks to tretinoin.


So let’s understand how tretinoin works. In simple words. Tretinoin increases the cell turn over that means it replaces older skin with new skin by peeling off the outer most layer.

So now think if the outer most layer of the skin keep changing to new fresh one then how long will it take for your acne scars, pigmentation or wrinkles to vanish? Not long enough

But there’s a think which makes people leave tretinoin.. I call those people impatient and sensitive. let me explain in simple words tretinoin is a strong acid which works by increasing the cell turn over right? So when tretinoin is first introduced to our skin.. our skin don’t adjust with it and starts producing side effects such as dryness, redness, ichiness, acne breakouts which is totally normal..you have to understand that this is the process of Tretinoin working.. you will have to give your skin time to adjust with the newly introduced powerful ingredient tretinoin.. it will take around 1 or max 2 weeks for your skin to adjust with tretinoin and then tretinoin will start showing it’s magic. Avoid applying tretinoin near your eyes, mouth and nostril as they are sensitive places

Now even tho 2 weeks are not too long but it’s still hard to bear inching and dry skin for that long period.. so here’s how you can avoid getting side effects of Tretinoin.

The solution is Use hyaluronic acid with tretinoin. Make your skin damp and apply hyaluronic acid.. give it few minutes to absorb then take pea size amount of Tretinoin.. and apply it all over your face. Hyaluronic acid will maintain the skin barrier by giving it intense amount of hydration hence your skin won’t become dry, red or ichy.

Now there are many people who Complains that they are not getting any results after using tretinoin instead there skin is getting darker..

So there are 2 things that are very very very important if you are using tretinoin. They are moisturizer and sunscreen. As i said earlier tretinoin dries out the skin so you will need a good moisturizer, which has either ceramide, hyaluronic acid or vitamin E.

And while using tretinoin or any other acid based ingredients, sun becomes your worst enemy.. tretinoin or any active acid makes your skin sensitive to sunlight so if you go out in direct sunlight without any protection then your skin will get tanned and pigmented..so using a sunscreen is very important. Choose a sunscreen which has SPF50 with PA++++ rating and reapply every 4 hours if you are outdoor.

Now there are few people who are not supposed to use tretinoin. Lactating or pregnant women, people sensitive skin type and people who spends most of the time under sunlight.

Now a lot of people ask me will they get the same results I got in 30 days of using tret? I would say maybe yes maybe not. Here me our first before coming at me.. one of my cousin had mild acne so her skin recovered in 2 weeks on the other hand one of my follower had acne acne scars for 6 years and she used my skincare routine and got 80% of her skin recovered in 4 months.. so the point to be noted here is.. you will get the results.. be it less than 30days or more than 30 days you will definitely get great results and after all that’s the goal right? To have fabulously clear skin.

Now lets talk about concentration. We mainly have 0.025% and 0.05% concentration of Tretinoin. You should always always always go for 0.025% one as a beginner. If you think higher concentration will give you faster results then that’s a no.. it will just give you too much side effects.

Now lets think about the long run. Tretinoin is great for anti aging right so if you are a person who wants to have glass like skin without any wrinkles at your 40 or 50s then start using tretinoin now. Start with applying tretinoin everyday for 1 year then use it on alternative days for 1 year. After that introduce 0.05% concentration of Tretinoin to your skin.. that time will be again a little painful for your skin. Once you are adjusted with 0.05%, use it 3 or 4 times a week for the rest of your life.. along with moisturizer and sunscreen.
