If your skin reacts to everything, ask a dermatologist before experimenting. Anti-aging is not worth wrecking your barrier.
Is retinol worth using if I have sensitive skin?
#anti aging#beauty#retinol#sensitive skin#skincare
I want to start anti-aging skincare, but every time I try strong products my skin gets dry and irritated. Should I avoid retinol or start differently?
AI Summary
People discuss introducing retinol slowly, buffering with moisturizer and knowing when sensitive skin needs gentler options.
Answers & Discussion
A lower-strength retinal or retinol product worked better for me than jumping into something strong. Consistency with a gentle product beat quitting a harsh one after two weeks.
Start very slow, like once a week, and use moisturizer before and after. People online act like you need nightly retinol immediately, but sensitive skin does not care about internet pressure.
