as a newbie to all this, I feel a little lost, and hope you can help me.
In purpose to treat hair loss I purchased some tretinoin powder.
In the meanwhile I've discovered the qualities of the retinoids as face treatment and I thought why not to kill two birds with one stone and make my own tretinoin face cream/gel. Unfortunately, I couldn't find any exact recipe of this cream using powder, and the method of calculating the amount of powder (in milligrams etc.) in order to make cream/gel at the
0.01%, 0.025% or 0.05% concentration.

Is there any chance you can help me please?

I would not mess with powder Tretinoin for the hair or face. It's a powerful agent and too much can go wrong if you screw up while DIY.
I've read a BUNCH of posts on this site and other popular ones and not once have I heard of anyone that has actually attempted a DIY Tretinoin product. There is a reason for this.
