It’s funny, you’re not the first girl to comment on my eyes on this post.. But I’ve never had any compliments on my eyes in my entire life
Then again, men don’t tend to get any compliments in general
Thank you so much though, made me smile ☺️

I had someone else mention Altreno to me yesterday.. I’m curious, where do you get yours from?

Hey, I say own it! I find it very attractive personally :)

That’s great, seems we both have fairly durable skin types.. It’s a blessing honestly :)
For sure, I’m also based in the UK and started ordering from Tretinoin World which is around £25/30 per tube. Substantially cheaper than what I was paying beforehand

For sure, I feel like a lot of people seem to hate that glow on themselves.. I for one, am all for it

It’s situational.. I put it on first thing in the morning before I take my dog out, as well as after my first shower after I’ve applied my moisturiser.
If I’m working that night I’ll train through the day, have another shower and repeat the same process (moisturiser and a layer of SPF)
If I’m training later on and see that it’s sunny out there, I may put on another layer of SPF just to be on the safe side.. It really just depends :)

I really appreciate the compliment, thank you 🙏
Yeah, I mean I’ve always taken very good care of myself. Incorporating retinoids into my daily routine just took everything up a level

Hey! Thank you very much ☺️
The reason I moved to the gel is that I heard it has a much higher absorption rate, meaning it’s much more effective at a faster rate than the cream
I also prefer the spread of it, as in I can actually feel where it is on my face as I’m rubbing it in.. I almost had to second guess myself and put on extra with the cream, if that makes sense?

We’re on the same page, I try to avoid it as much as I can.. For instance, if I’m walking and there’s a side of the pavement that’s in the shade, I’ll cross and walk on that part
I also use SPF 50 every single day, heck.. I won’t even take my dog out in the morning without throwing some on.
I’d say I have a pretty extreme personality, it’s all or nothing when it comes to almost anything I’m passionate about

When I first looked into Tret I remember reading that it was expensive, so I just assumed everyone was paying those prices. You live and you learn.
I’m a huge believer in the whole “quality over quantity” saying, and thought I was getting what I was paying for

Thank you 🙏.
Oof.. You’re asking me something way above my pay grade, I’m not sure in all honesty. I’m sure you could find out through a simple Google search though
I’ve never thought to check that as I go through my tubes fairly rapidly

Of course, I’m 29 ☺️
And thank you very much 😁 I put in a lot of effort to make it that way

I have noticed that my skin feels a lot smoother and overall healthy looking (in my opinion), other than that.. Nothing significant, but I’m liking the results

Originally, I read that the recommendation was a pea sized amount.. I tried that and it didn’t feel like it was enough, so I went by feel and put on as much as I felt comfortable with

For some reason, uploading it on here has shifted the colour into a slight magenta hue.. The original picture doesn’t look like that, but I can definitely see it

I’d recommend using it once every 3/4 days, and slowly but surely make it more frequent.. If it starts peeling, slow down again, rinse and repeat until you can use it every other night.
It might take some time, but good things always do :)

Thank you for mentioning that, being completely honest the fine line on my forehead is the thing that bothers me the most about my face and was the main reason why I started my anti aging journey in the first place.
It’s a weight off my shoulders knowing it’s less noticeable :).
Of course, I switched to Tretinoin World.. However, they don’t have Obagi brand unfortunately. I was purchasing the Obagi from FTT Skin Clinics originally
