^ako nung start pa lang ako sa tret, 0.025 gamit ko. Wala muna ako ibang nilalagay. Pag may time na feel ko hapdi na sa face lalo sa gilid ng nose, tigil ko muna or every other night ko gamitin.
Medyo matagal ko  na rin to gamit.
Ngaun, naglayer na ako with moisturizer. Mas effective sakin yung mga serum, essence etc basta mga thin moisturizer kesa sa mga medyo thick na moisturizer. Wait 30min or more tapos tret na. May toner din pala ako.
Dati nung tret lang gamit ko nagkaka pimples ako sa jaw line. Or maybe matagal lang talaga ang purging state sakin. Now wala na.

Sis where did you get your 0.025%?

Yung retin-a sa watsons is that 0.05 or 0.5%? Tia! :) also i read na you can mix niacinamide based products para malessen yung pagpeel sa tret. Olay daw has niacinamide, ano pa kaya iba mga sis? Meron kayang purely niacinamide na cream to use? ☺

^retacnyl sis, available sa mercury.
Last week, i just upgraded to 0.05%
1 year din ako sa 0.025
Feels okay naman. Kinis ng face ko, wala naman breakout. pero baka too early to tell.

^ how much retacnyl sis? Okay na kaya if i start with 0.05% na? Natatakot ako sa purging haha huhu.
my skin has relatively calmed down na and has said goodbye to my teenage acne. i'm considering using tret for anti aging talaga. so nakakahinayang talaga if mag breakout/purging galore ako sa tret. :(

^^around 1k yung 0.05 sis. 2nd purchase ko pa lang actually kasi tipid gamitin. Pag mahapdi naman na sakin dati tigil ko muna ng mga 2 days.depende sa mood. Minsan tiis ganda. Lol :) sakin happy ako sa result ng tret kahit nag purge dati. Mas madali na apply foundation. Though nag aabang pa ako na paliitin niya pores ko. Ang effect kasi sakin parang naging mababaw na lang siya - big pores here.
^yung mga astringent like maxipeel, ang alam ko pwede mo naman siya gamitin pero hindi matagalan. Parang max 3mos lang.

Using tret cream .05% from the derma every other night. I think nasa purging pa ako, kasi there are little bumps sa face ko though di naman talaga kita ng malayuan but pag zoom ayun kita sya. :( how long po ba ang average purging?

If I'm going to the beach, how many days should I stop using tret prior? Or is there no need to wean off?

^ At least a week, pero para sa akin, ideal ang 2 weeks prior. If planning to spend lots of time under the sun, best ang one month.

Meron bang .1% dito sa Philippines?  Stieva-A has stopped making it.  Retin-A naman .05% lang.

Mga sis okay lang ba na magexfoliate (i use baby towelette) if i'm on tret? Every 3 days ako magexfoliate. Should i lessen or should i stop? When should i time/coincide my exfoliation if ever, like 1 day after tret etc. Thanks! 😊

^^sis siguro sa mga derma meron ganyan kataas na formula ng tret

^i exfoliate every other day din but using st. ives. okay naman sakin. pero if you feel mejo mahapdi face mo after exfoliate, wag na muna siguro mag tret. the only time i don't use tret is pag gumamit ako ng facial mask. walang regular schedule for facial mask. pag feel ko lang :)

^ thanks sis. I read na it helps the tret daw to exfoliate pero mga chemical exfoliants ang gamit abroad. So baka pag physical contraindicated. Good thing it's not kasi di ba we're not supposed to peel off yung mga nagbabakbak na skin pag nagpapapeel so i thought it's same with tret.
The only regular mask i do is my once a week deep cleansing mask, qhmj alternate with aztec healing clay. Buti nung first time di ko sila pinagsabay, masyado kasi potent din yung mga yun. So kahit na moisturizing mask avoid na lang muna na pagsabayin nuh. Thanks sis sa advice and for answering my questions!

Btw super nipis lang ng nilagay kong tret nung sunday, almost insignificant amount na nga but napansin ko na may konting peeling na sa ibang parts ng face ko pero di siya pansin unless you'll look very closely. Nakakaloka haha!

^haven't tried chemical exfoliant ever  :-\ yung st ives naman, ginamit ko siya netong wala na akong purging. pero dati, parang bihira ko yata gamitin. ngayon nga parang gusto ko mag add ng konjac sponge sa cleansing routine ko  ;D
i also use qjmj, pag sobrang oily ng face ko.

si husband naman nilalagyan ko ng tret 1 week na. haha! labasan mga pimples niya. 0.05 agad pinagamit ko. wala pa siya peeling.

What to do with whiteheads sa nose hinde kaya ng tretinoin, and aztec mask, the only thing matanggal is mag facial ako monthly, or 2x a month,

Meron po bang retacnyl na 0.01% yung pinakamataas, discontinued na stieva A. kasi i need higher tret.

From derm a, switching to retin a for some weeks already, i can say na better ang retin a with acne. With derm a i never got completely clear, laging may occasional breakout that leaves marks for a long time. With retin a as in clear talaga lagi ang skin. Probably because of the different carrier cream.
Side note, i also started using a glycolic soap (teranex) last night. Wish me luck! :)

Pwede naman pero most of them have hydroquinone, so you can't use them for more than 2 months. Ang hirap din i-control kung gaano karami yung mag-d-drop sa cotton pad.

By the way, wala na bang "Unread Replies" feature? I can't find it. Ang hirap ng bagong layout ng GT.

Hello po. I'm 20 years old and  I want to use Retin-A sana. Does it come with 0.025% here in PH?
And okay lang kaya kung gumamit ng diluted apple cider vinegar as a toner, as well as celeteque hydration moisturizer(eto po kasi kakabili ko lang). Thank you po :)
