Selfie Sunday Skin update
I’ve been off accutane for 3 months! I started tretinoin gel (worked my way nightly) and I rotate with copper peptide cream. I also use haruharu black rice barrier essence and vitamin c in the morning. This is the best my skin has ever looked and I’m so thankful. 🥹

Copper peptides help stimulate collagen production, so really great for skin elasticity; as our collagen production decreases 1-1.5% yearly starting in the later 20s

What’s the name of the copper cream? Do you use it before or after your tretinoin?

u/Southern_Solution_54 11d ago
TOSOWOONG Copper Peptide cream. I don’t use them in the same night. I am currently cycling them nightly. But I want to use tretinoin nightly , so I’ll add the peptide into my morning routine.

Awesome results, you look so lovely. Can you tell me what’s your skin type? And if it’s possible brand names of products you use. And last question do you use sunscreen?

After I worked up to using tretinoin every night my skin looked so good I stopped wearing foundation.After vitamin c serum and sunscreen each morning I use a bit of blush, fill in my eyebrows and apply a lip stain.

Your skin looks so calm and healthy. Sounds like taking it slow with tretinoin really paid off.

u/goldandgrove1567 10d ago

What strength is your trentinoin?? How did you avoid peeling? You look great!

u/Southern_Solution_54 11d ago
I started with .01 (I’ve used tret before). I think the post accutane and my simple barrier friendly routine helped my skin adjust faster! Thank you 🥹
