Sharing what I had conversation with my client ♥️

Client:

“Hi Grace! Recently it’s been really dry and my face gets very itchy, especially on my forehead and cheeks. I don’t know why. Sometimes I use 345 cream but I don’t have it right now. Please let me know what’s happening or what might be causing it. Thank you!”

Me:

“It sounds like your skin is reacting to too many active ingredients in your routine. Layering multiple actives, especially without a moisturizer can leave skin dry, itchy, and irritated.

For sensitive skin, it’s best to use one active at a time rather than combining several in one routine. Since your skin already feels uncomfortable, it’s best to pause all actives for now and focusing on barrier repair.

Actives:

• TXA

• PDRN Pink Collagen Cream

• Vita C Cream

• Retinal Shot

• AHA/BHA Peeling Solution

💡 Tip: Back to Basics Routine

AM ☀️

• Gentle Cleanser (or just rinse with water)

• Hydrating Moisturizer

• Sunscreen

PM 🌙

• Gentle Cleanser (use oil or milk cleanser first if you wear makeup/tinted/mineral sunscreen)

• Hydrating Moisturizer

Keeping your routine simple will let your skin reset and a good moisturizer is key to calming and restoring your barrier ✨
