Uploaded May 2019 | Updated September 2026, 3 weeks ago
My updated skincare routine for Spring using tretinoin! Although the temp is warmer, it's still quite dry. I show you where I fit retinoids into my personal routine as well as some of the supporting products that have made my experimental journey relatively seamless. This is just what I have found works best for me. As always, keep in mind that the steps of my routine vary day to day depending on my skin condition which is why I am showing you the different products I have in rotation to accommodate the changing needs. Do your routine with me!
