Damaged Skin Barrier!😣🥺

Hello! I recently tried a new Retinol product but didnt realize it’s much stronger than the one my skin was used to. Unfortunately, I damaged my skin barrier and my severe allergies aggravated the skin irritation more. Just wanna share what products I usually use when this happens. (yes its not the first time coz I like trying new products and I go extra ✌🏻😅 pls don’t judge me) Learn from my mistakes😉. When it comes to Retinol, start slow and apply a thin layer. I became too confident not realizing this is a different formula/brand. To be safe, you can also try the sandwich method (moisturizer-retinol-moisturizer).

no problem. i was so afraid it will get worse but my face is getting better. thank you. i remember 2 years ago i had so much acne. looking back, it was all bcoz of my compromised skin barrier and overexfoliation. i even started curology but didnt help. my skin just needed to recover back then. so we gotta listen to our skin 🌸
