How should I exfoliate my SUPER sensitive skin while on Retin-A micro gel?

How often are you using retinol? In order to minimize the adverse effects related to retinoid therapy, it is generally recommended that the usage of retinol consists of application on alternate nights for the first 2 weeks of use, at minimum, or until deemed tolerable. If you are applying daily, it may cause these adverse effects such as peeling and sensitive skin. If you are looking for a moisturizer to help combat peeling and flakiness, we would recommend looking into SkinCeuticals Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2. Clinical studies demonstrate that that this moisturizer is ideal when paired with retinol usage. Triple Lipid Restore 2:4:2 contains the first 2:4:2 cholesterol-dominant ratio to help skin with hydration. Patients saw a significant improvement in dryness and subjects treated reported that their face felt significantly more comfortable than the other half of the face treated with a comparative lotion. Upon having a consistent retinol routine, if you are looking to exfoliate, we recommend SkinCeuticals Clarifying Exfoliating Cleanser. Designed with dual-action exfoliating technology, this cream cleanser efficiently removes dead skin cells while purifying and brightening the skin. This gentle treatment combines potent decongesting and exfoliating agents to dissolve surface debris, smooth skin texture, and promote skin clarity. Best of luck in your skincare journey.
