When did you start using the retinol? Maybe you’re purging because of it?

I hate to tell you this but I think you overdid it on the niacinamide. While niacinamide is usually really good for the skin it can be sensitizing if your moisture barrier is suffering from retinoid use. The ordinary formulation is strong and I am from rice toner also has niacinamide high in the ingredients list.

😮😮 this is so helpful!! Thanks for that! Guess i’ll be pulling out the rice toner instead from my skincare or the ordinary? 😣
Is there a way I can still include these products in my skincare like is it okay if i just dont use them at the same routine/alrernating between days?
I find that it would be such a huge waste of money to just let it go the I’m From Rice toner was pretty pricey.
But thank you anyway! That made so much sense

Hmm I would suggest taking one product out and testing it for a week then incorporating the other product. It’s hard to pinpoint what product is causing your irritation if you incorporate too many things at once

Is your skin sensitive perhaps? Maybe you're allergic to one of the ingredients in the products

Yes I think maybe, that would be a good idea. I also saw a dermatologist when my acne was really bad, I found out I was allergic to silicon in products. 🤧

Is it your first time using retinol? If yes, it can be it as it is 1% 🤔

Hi i’ve used retinol eye creams in the past’ but of course only on the underye area and my skin didnt really react to it. I used the Yeouth Retinol Eye Cream.
I only started using the ordinary retinol 2 weeks ago and I have noticed that when i use the retinol, i feel sort of like dead skin/could be product building up as I apply it on my face. 😕
Do you suggest I stop using the retinol or is it part of purging?
