Sorry if this is an old question that has been answered a billion times already but I need HELP big time
Evening routine:
1. cleanse face
2. tone face (recently added to routine)
3. eye treatment
4. treatment for dark spots (recently added)
5. treatment for anti-aging
6. night cream
I have Differin on hand and haven't a clue where it should be added to the routine. Or, am I doing too much already??
I use Acne LightStim in the morning and AALS in the evening.
HELP........

Is this for your son? Hmm Differin is just erythromycin and retin-a if my memory serves. I'd say put it last. Maybe it's not even a good idea to moisturize, that's what they say on the Obagi program. Seems like you'd be overloading your skin. I had some Differin but I didn't use it. My doctor provided no description of what it was or did (same with Steivamycin). Grrr it really gets my goat. |

Differin is synthetic A, no antibiotic.
I would it after toner. If you apply it over anything it will buffer it and not be as effective. But on the bright side this can also be your anti-aging product. |

No, for it is for me. My son has things under control for now. He loves his Acne LightStim and I only wish I had known about it for my older son as well. There are about a half dozen tubes of Differin in the boys bathroom (not including samples) so I thought I might toss that into the mix as well.
I have been using the Acne LightStim on my jawline cystic acne and it has helped me as well.
I am working on large areas of hyperpigmentation from cystic acne scaring, wrinkles and sagging from 50 pounds of weight loss including jowls, N/L lines, marionette lines, general aging, and surgical menopause (7 yrs already and still getting hot flashes)
If I had only one or two problems to work on it wouldn't be so bad but I have multiple problems and don't know if I should treat one at a time or go for the Full Monty.
I've also been doing Ageless for about a month.
Thinking about a Stop purchase.....
Top it all off I live in a desert where the temps are over 100 F for most of the year. Air conditioning just drys the skin right out and the beating down of the sun and the constant relentless heat is an aging nightmare
HELP!! |
