Hey everyone! I’d really like to add a product with retinol to my nighttime skincare routine but really don’t know where to start. What products would you recommend for a retinol newbie? FYI: I have dry skin but it’s not at all sensitive, if that helps. Thank you in advance!

Want to add a retinol to my routine.

There isn’t really anything negative about this product.

This is a pretty good eye solution. It helps brighten my dark under eye circles and depuffs my eye bags. I like that it absorbs quickly and does not leave behind a sticky residue. I don’t know that I’ll repurchase when I run out because there are a lot of other eye creams I’d like to try. It’s super affordable!

This is a great Hyaluronic acid serum. It is thin and absorbs quickly. It doesn’t leave a sticky residue on my face and I don’t have to wait long before I can apply my other serums and moisturizer. It only takes a few drops to cover and entire face and neck. I also like to put a little on my lips at night before bed and when I wake up the are plump and hydrated. It’s super affordable, like all The Ordinary products. Highly recommend!

There’s nothing negative about this product unless you are someone who’s looking for a CC cream with sheer to light coverage because this baby is full coverage.

This is my favorite CC cream, although it’s not really a CC cream. It’s more like a medium to full coverage foundation with added skincare ingredients and SPF. I love all the versions of this CC cream but the Illumination version is my favorite. Inhave dry skin so I love anything that can give my skin a healthy glow and this does just that. I love the packaging with a pump. I have repurchased this many times and will continue to do so. 

The only negative I can think of is that I wish it came in a bigger size jar. 

This is an amazing sleep or “dream” mask! I love to slather this on my face at the end of my nighttime skincare routine. It is so thick and hydrating and every morning I wake up with the most gorgeous glow on my skin! This is one of the few skincare products that I noticed a difference in my skin after the first use, which is rare. It’s my holy grail sleep mask! I also love the light citrus scent!

There was nothing bad about this cleanser. It is one of my all time favorite cleansers.

I absolutely love this cleanser by IT Cosmetics. I love how it suds up as I massage it onto my face. It has a very pleasant but subtle citrus scent that is invigorating in the morning. It removes makeup really well, even waterproof mascara. I also love how it does not leave my skin with the squeaky too clean, tight feeling. I’m almost finished with my tube and I will definitely be repurchasing this. I highly recommend this cleanser for anyone looking for a cleanser that won’t dry your skin out.
