Hi everyone!
I’m from the Netherlands and I’m looking to start using tretinoin and azelaic acid, but I’m having trouble finding where to buy them.
I’m specifically looking for Finacea 15% azelaic acid gel and Menarini tretinoin.
Does anyone know where I can get these products in the Netherlands or from a reliable website that ships here?
Any recommendations or links would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

I used to use the First Aid Beauty Ultra Repair Retinol Complex Serum with 0.3% Retinol Complex + Peptides. Didn't have any issues with it, used it for a long time but didn't necessarily see much of an improvement over a long period of time and didn't love the texture of it. I didn't even finish my last bottle of it and it's definitely expired at this point.

I'm just kind of in the mood to try something new because why not.

I'm looking at the Mother Science Retinol Synergist Anti-Aging Treatment Serum with Malassezin + 0.3% Encapsulated Retinol because I've heard good things. I had also looked at the Innis green tea retinol pdrn, but after I filtered the reviews to filter out incentivized reviews, the remaining reviews were slim and not all that great.

Can anyone vouch for the Mother Science retinol? Or suggest something else?

Okay guys, so I just started my new skincare routine about two weeks ago to combat dryness, and because my prior skincare routine got put on hold for over an year when I had countless surgeries last year for cancer. But this new routine is far improved over my prior one. And going to AZ for treatments made me more urgent to start an SPF

I’ll leave my skincare at the bottom, but I wondered if the slightly dark tones under my eyes can have something done about them? I didn’t prioritize it because it’s not that prominent and there’s always makeup. But I also never asked outright how normal or prominent my under eye pigments are to eyes other then my own so I don’t have a baseline that isn’t my own echo chamber of a mind. I also hesitate to say ‘bags’, though they’ve always been a bit purple-ish.

(My face is red because of the collagen moisturizer but it goes away)

Current skincare is:

— ☀️ —
Glycoside Cleanser
Ascorbyl Glucoside
Collagen Gel Moisturizer
SPF Serum
Moisture Mask (as needed for stubborn dry bouts)

— 🌙 —
Glycoside Cleanser
Salicylic Acid (2-3 times a week or as needed)
Hyloronic Acid
Niacinamide\Zinc Serum
Hyloronic Gel Moisturizer
Moisture Mask

I don’t do every product every day, and sometimes I even skip doing my routine simply to not overwhelm my skin. It’s rather sensitive and the routine helps combat it but can also trigger it if I’m overly consistent. Somedays, I just simplify to moisturizers and sunscreens.

i’ve never had any sort of eczema or skin issues before this rather than the occasional break out but im losing my mind with this!!!! this is a pic of it at its worst but it comes and goes. i thought it was chellitis at first and the derm prescribed me with hydrocortisone but it never went away i then started on ketoconazole because i thought maybe it was fungal???? but it still comes back i also had a bottle of mupirocin and figured why not try it im so desperate and it still comes back!! it will always clear up then come right back so im thinking its maybe eczema but whats weird is i noticed it after i got invisalign and have had it since. it starts of feeling like tiny little dots and then scabs up. does anyone know any at home balms i can try out if it is eczema?? or has anyone had a similar experience im genuinely gonna lose it if i get another scab breakout on my freaking lips i cant post a pic in the eczema reddit lol so i figured id post here im not asking for medical advice just would love to know what products work for you because i want to stop using aquaphor as ive read it irritates people out of nowhere

im trying to get into hygiene and want an african net sponge as ive seen a lot of people reccomend them. does anyone know if this ones any good? ive got some questions about the sponge as well. how often do i put it in the washing machine? how often do i replace it? how do i wash it? with water and soap after every use? thanks.

Hai!

Im having problems with my skin! I have always been acne prone however ever since i moved to Texas, it has flared up . My skin does not feel tight anymore, i have pimples under the skin that end up being flared (yes i pick)

I have huge stressors in my life, a custody battle, my husband is deployed and in raising my three year old on my own. I have depression so it can be hard to get my self to wash my face every morning...

At the moment i use medicube red, the red toner really helped along with the soothing cream, but I'm still getting acne around my chine and my p face in general doesn't look clean. I will say using medicube zero pore gave me a very very bad reaction 😶

I also don't have a lot of money to spend on products so i keep it basic. Also should I be using a blade on my face? Some people say it helps but some say it won't?

I did my second vial for 2 days ago, everything is fine so far, but damn there are so many negative stuff about Sculptra on the internet that seriously makes me so scared.. I am scared that I will get bad results that are irreversible

Hi! I’m looking for a good moisturizer for my skin type: combo in summer, dry-normal in winter (+ sensitive and prone to clogging especially on my nose because I sweat alot on my nose) so I guess balanced skin? I’m not sure. But I’ve recently tried this Korean beta glucan moisturizer (iunik) and that has been drying my skin out a lot. Since it’s winter (UK) my skin is in need of nourishment and im looking for a replacement moisturizer.

Nivea soft cream used to me by HG but now it’s too clogging on my t zone as I’ve grown up.

hii!! i’m really confused between The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA and SKIN1004 Madagascar Centella Tone Brightening Capsule Ampoule 😭 my main goal is brighter, glowy, even-toned skin and fading some stubborn dark spots. and i also have dull skin.. pls help me choose and give me your honest reviews and suggest me which one should i buy

I've literally tried everything nothing works for me my lips remain like this they look dry and has a whitish cast on it idk what is that i tried lip balms spf lip balm even lipzite but nothing works what should I do

I've been noticing more dryness, tightness, and flaking around my nose and mouth, and the irritation has gotten to the point where even applying moisturiser can sting.

I'm starting to wonder if my skin barrier needs a break or if I'm using tretinoin in a way that's too harsh for my skin.

For those of you who've experienced this, what helped you the most? Did you take a break from tretinoin, reduce how often you used it, or change your skincare routine?

I'd especially love to hear what helped soothe the irritation and how you knew your skin was ready to start using tretinoin again.

Hi, is there anyone from the UK who know's a reputable supplier to buy tretinoin from please 😊

T.I.A

f30..i have oily skin...not too much into skincare who follows 10 steps fro skincare routine..
i was looking for something for pigmentation nd for my uneven skin...then after researching on reddit and google i can up with this product fcll exo radiance serum and thought to give it a try..so here's my review..
using this product from last 3-4 weeks..there is improvement in my pigmentation nd overall skin but it leaves little bit whitecast and my skin feels dry..
packaging is it comes in pump bottle so its convenient..
texture is lightweight..and there is no smell..
so overall it is doing what i bought this product for....there is glow and improvement in uneven skin..
will share more reviews after using it few more weeks... you can give this prodcut a try but but first do proper research on ingrediants...

I want to know your holy grail moisturizer. Like if you could only ever use one face moisturizer forever, which would it be and why?

Every summer the skin around my mouth and nose become so dry it's peeling and rough. I use snail mucin everyday and slug my face with cica balm at night. Any tips?

I have lot of acne on cheeks and forehead, blackheads on nose. I have tried some genuine facewashes but not able to keep it consistant.

Have you guys tried any SkinCare app that tracks your skin progress with AI and suggests you products+ personalised routine.

Is it worth to download and pay for a skincare app and have you guys paid for it???

If yes which app are you currently using?

For men

Help meeee!! I have old chickenpox and mosquito scars that look awful and are just not going away. So I'm planning to get this alongwith Tretinoin.

Pls drop in your valuable suggestions!
