Simple Drugstore Routine Part 1 #shorts

So I don't know where to start with skincare, but I need a simple routine. Basic. Definitely basic. The best place to start with a basic routine is at night. So once you wash the day off and get everything off your face, what is the goal of our routine? To hydrate, to maintain your moisture barrier, and maybe to help a little bit with collagen production, because we're all losing collagen. If you're aging, and I hope to God you're aging too, retinols I have a little beef with because they're amazing. They can be irritating. And what bothers me is when brands include them with other active ingredients. Because you need to know the type of retinol you're using and the percent. If you're somebody who's already established tolerance to retinol, this is fine because it's at 0.5%. But if you're a newbie, I would never use a 0.5%. I would try to go lighter on the retinol. Even brands that don't disclose the percentage of retinol, it's probably better because it's probably less than 0.3%. After the retinol, you want a moisturizer.
