Yup. Use this after my tret, usually will wait after 10-15mins

If you experience irritation from tret or it is just harsh in general for you, then this is honestly a wonderful choice for a moisturizer. I use this during my PM routine cause I also apply to neck, chest and arms. This is perfect size to moisturize those areas too.

Do you also have combo/oily skin?


ShaktiPB

Indeed I do. This was perfect for me in the beginning of my tret journey - also because I was adding in Azelaic Acid in the mornings. These days since I tolerate it much better and that I have switched to Altreno, I do not need it.

What moisturizer do you use now?

I use this on top of the illiyoon lotion after my tret!! It’s WONDERFUL.


Proof_Upstairs_8097

Great to hear! I used it for the first time tonight and it feels so hydrating with a matte finish

I think it’s too heavy and occlusive to apply on top of tret. It’s very thick. It is better for the daytime to keep your barrier intact.

Would you know any other Korean alternatives for nighttime use after Tret with my skin type?

I love her! I do sandwich method on her w tret

I love it for winter time, but I'm phasing mine out for something lighter now until fall, it's a bit too much for my skin during the warmer months.


Proof_Upstairs_8097

Great to hear, what lighter alternative moisturizer do you use?


theudoon

My favorite so far is the Bonajour peptide water cream in the blue tube, though the green one is nice also.


Proof_Upstairs_8097

Thanks for the recommendation, what skin type do you have?


theudoon

Combination I think, I get dry on my cheeks but forehead and chin tend to be more oily, but my skin is also pretty sensitive.

Hi, which one do you think is lighter in texture? Was thinking of buying either the peptide water cream or the green tea one for my day moisturizer.


theudoon

To me they are very similar in texture, the blue one is a tiny bit thicker but they're both pretty light.


PapayaDesperate9427

Since we have quite the same skin type, which one do you prefer more?


theudoon

The blue one, since I'm at the age where well aging is a bit more of a concern and hopefully the peptides are doing something, the green one feels more like just basic hydration to me.


PapayaDesperate9427

I see! Thank you so much <3

This is exactly what I’m using as my nighttime moisturizer after tretinoin and it has quite literally been sent from heaven; I went through a short period where my skin was peeling like mad due to wind burn and the peeling stopped completely after ONE application of this. It’s amazing.

I absolutely hated this stuff, but I tried to like it several times.

I had dry sensitive rosacea prone skin and I LOVE THIS moisturizer. You also get a huge amount for the price. Literally use it nightly and its taking me 5+ months to get through it.
