Omd bro why u keep questioning me on my tret posts 😭 I want good skin and tret is gonna get rid of my acne, acne scars, smooth my skin and just improve my skin (hopefully)
 
My derm reccomends the cerave big tub of lotion, its cheap and works. tret then wait 10-20 mins and lotion up!! I use dapsone cream in the morning for active acne too,, same process. if i use a face mask or anything i skip tret since it tends to react.... very simple routine is best to avoid irritation
 
What do you guys do for your tret routine? What moisturiser you using, what else are you using etc.
I've been using tret 0.05% consistently every night (and sometimes in the morning) for 6 months atleast now, I don't really use moisturizer to be honest as my skin is already too oily, but before I used to sandwich it between a thin layer of moisturizer when I was just starting. I also use kojac acid bar soap for pigmentation and it's been working decently :peepoLove:

If your skin is oily why not use isotret?
 
My acne was mild that's why, and my doctor prescribed me with it so I just went along with it I guess
If your skin is annoyingly oily I'd recommend isotret

for skin though tret is fine, better even
