I try to concentrate it over my problem areas like my chin. It doesn’t spread super well, so I usually use like, 3-4 drops for my face. True to the Ordinary, it is packaged in a boring dropper bottle that is UV protective. I’m going to give this until mid-end April to work its magic and pray to god it works. I have lots of minor whiteheads in areas I only occasionally get whiteheads in, like my forehead and my cheeks. I can say this is definitely my experience. So, you should give the retinoid about a month, at least, before expecting results. your skin is going to look way worse before it looks better. (For a nice guide on purging vs breakouts, read this handy guide by Lab Muffin!) Because retinoid increases the rate of cell turnover. Of course, with retinoid, you expect lots of purging to happen. Sorry for the blurry pic! Also, HOW FANTASTIC IS MY NAIL COLOUR.Īqua (Water), Glycerin, Ethyl Linoleate, Propanediol, Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Cetearyl Isononanoate, Bisabolol, Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate, Retinol, Tasmannia Lanceolata Fruit/Leaf Extract, Dimethyl Isosorbide, Inulin Lauryl Carbamate, Glyceryl Stearate, Ceteareth-12, Ceteareth-20, Cetearyl Alcohol, Carrageenan, Xanthan Gum, Acacia Senegal Gum, Cetyl Palmitate, Sucrose Laurate, Polysorbate 20, Behentrimonium Chloride, Potassium Citrate, Trisodium Ethylenediamine Disuccinate, Disodium EDTA, Dehydroacetic Acid, Benzoic Acid, Ethylhexylglycerin, Phenoxyethanol, Chlorphenesin. So I was hoping Retinoid would wipe it clean and make my skin baby smooth again.ĮDIT: Update as promised here, with before and after photos! Although somehow it went away by itself and I don’t have huge cystic acne there like I used to, I still have very clogged pores there and a fair bit of texture. As you know, I had rather bad hormonal acne on my chin for about 6 months. This is the product I was the most excited for from The Ordinary.
