Episode notes
Managing Tretinoin with Exfoliation
- Tretinoin doesn't exfoliate skin, but peeling from its use can be managed with exfoliants on alternate days.
- Use tretinoin in the evening and exfoliate chemically or physically the following day to maintain skin health.
Gua Sha vs Jade Rollers
- Gua sha tools offer better lymphatic drainage and muscle tension release than jade rollers.
- Choose real stone gua sha for effectiveness and clean with a damp cloth; avoid plastic rollers for bacteria.
Serum Advice for Mature Skin
- For age 50+ skin, use serums with AHA, BHA, retinol, and peptides for texture and hydration.
- Consider splurge serums like Kate Somerville peptides or Skin Medica TNS with growth factors for firming benefits.
