You can use it in the AM to soothe, in the PM you can layer under retin-a for more protection, or over retin-a if things are going well. I don't use it much in the AM as I am lazy. In the summer the retin-a cream/ liquid aloe combo was super softening and Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13824166300343648341noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455649611035614739.post-84901587283769159442014-10-07T08:53:50.429-07:002014-10-07T08:53:50.429-07:00Keep them coming, Kirsten!!

I read a news article covering a dermatologic study indicating combining the two increases results, though they couldn't say if it was because of increased retin-a usage due to less irritation or if there is some sort of synergistic effect.

I have to say that I am becoming less and less tolerant of unappealing or unpleasant scents in products-- even if the products themselves are very effective. It's not a chemical or scent sensitivity that makes me unable to use them, but more an issue of just not wanting to smell things that I find lola seicentohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096919291120769005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455649611035614739.post-16911217297239776532014-10-06T20:54:07.385-07:002014-10-06T20:54:07.385-07:00I purchased the neutrogena retinol as a two pack a...I purchased the neutrogena retinol as a two pack at costco- I'm fairly certain it is their standard retinol treatment.

Overpowering scents or a sensitivity to particular scents can definitely be a problem-- particularly in the case that the scent lingers and lingers. I have that experience with smelly chemical-heavy scents in haircare products as well-- especially when my hair is down and the smell is constantly literally in my face.<lola seicentohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14096919291120769005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1455649611035614739.post-11222062684558666512014-10-05T20:10:31.576-07:002014-10-05T20:10:31.576-07:00The rose hydrosol scent just might not be my thing...The rose hydrosol scent just might not be my thing in its most concentrated form.

While I love the face oil I'm still on the fence on the hydrosol.
