Beauty Tips For Body Care
Most reviews I've seen are from people starting off with more oily, acne-prone skin which gets worse before getting better. I rarely see anything about less problematic skin types (like mine, currently), so I wanted to see if others have experienced a 'purge' period and what that was like.I suffered from acne for a loooong time, and finally got it under control in my early 20s. Now, at 25, I have normal-to-dry skin and usually just have a few closed comedones or little bumps under the skin. I very rarely get active acne (i.e., actual pimples), and I do not consider my skin to be particularly sensitive. Does it sound like my skin will be more or less likely to experience a bad purge?Also, because I'm so afraid of purging, I plan to only use Tret in one area of my face at a time. I just don't think I can [emotionally] manage having bad breakouts across my entire face at once (I am traumatized from my teenage years), so I'd rather just deal with one small section at a time until the purge period ends. Has anyone else tried this method?My routine is very simple and non-irritating. I use an OTC retinol (CeraVe) every other night, so I'm hoping my skin is already semi-acclimated to it. The only other active I use is salicylic acid on alternating nights, which I plan to stop while using Tret. Other than that, I use a basic, fragrance-free cleanser, moisturizer and SPF.
