Trying skincare for the first time
Our take
Hey there! If you're stepping into the skincare world for the first time, you’re not alone. With just soap and water as your go-to, it’s exciting that you’re ready to explore more options for your skin. After seeking advice from ChatGPT, you received a tailored recommendation for products like a salicylic acid cleanser, retinoid, niacinamide, and a lightweight moisturizer, plus the sunscreen you already love. However, the media suggests a simpler routine. Let’s navigate the best approach for your sensitive skin without breaking the bank!
heya!! so I've never had a skincare routine before, the only thing i wash my face with is soap and water since that is the only thing i could afford. Since i've saved up a little, and i think my skin is getting textured- i chose to ask the next best thing since i couldn't afford a dermatologist- Chatgpt. i sent it picture of my skin and it told me i had mild-moderate skin texture and recommended me Salicylic acid cleanser, retinoid, niacinimide, light weight mosturizer and a sunscreen (i already wear sunscreen).
But after my research on the media, They say you only need a cleanser, toner, moisturizer and sunscreen. I have sensitive skin and need recommendations on what to do, esp since i have limited savings <//3 pls tell me what is the best option makeup gurus it would be appreciated!!

- product reco for skincare 1st timerhi i’m a 25 yo girl (yes, that old) and i only wash my face every night with water (with little to no shame). the reason for this is… i tried face soap when i was young and i got PIMPLES. when i don’t wash it with soap i had no pimple at all!! it only pops up once a month before menstruation. my friends for the past years would always say just suncscreen, cleanse etc… and i’m so reluctant because it’s so convenient (that i don’t have to put extra mins at night) and i saw a post once that says don’t fix what’s not broken haha. & i know the dirt in my face alr accumulated!! and i can’t risk weeks of my face having break outs (there’s a lot of events to go to 😭) lately, i have maybe just a lil bit of budget to spend for self care! and my first thought was i can see my fucking pores on my selfies n i just know they r asking for help. but i think i have fragile skin, i have psoriasis, i have kp bumps on my arms n thighs that i gave up on. i just really want a cleanse - moisturize - sunscreen combo that WON’T make me break out because if pimples pop up i’d panic and stop it all ot once. just wondering what products to use (preferably something i can grab on cvs) thank you! submitted by /u/watersigned [link] [comments]

- 25 and my skin looks ROUGH, help!!Hi! I am a 25F with skin that shouldn't look as bad as it does. Wrinkles on my forehead, lots of texture, and dark spots from acne. My skin is hard to read in terms of oily vs dry but it is acne prone and definitely can get dry at times and oily at other times. Right now, this has been my night routine for a few months. It hasn't been great in eliminating lines, spots or texture but my skin has felt more hydrated. - Round lab foam cleanser - Anua peach toner - Prescription tret - Cetaphil daily moisturizing lotion for dry sensitive skin I am ashamed to admit it but in the morning I usually just throw on SPF 50 and call it good. I have been doing some research but I am getting kinda overwhelmed with all the info I am getting. Would these be better routines to match my needs? Do any of these products interact? Night: - Ma:nyo pure cleansing oil - Vanicream cleanser - Byoma milky toner - Prescription tret/The Ordinary Azelaic acid suspension 10% cream, alternating every other day - Avene Cicalfate protective cream Morning: - Vanicream cleanser - Byoma milky toner - SPF moisturizer submitted by /u/ranch518 [link] [comments]
- skin care help!!hiya divas! i'm a 23 year old who is struggling to find the right skin-care routine. i have dry skin and fairly large pores. i'm prone to acne breakouts as well, though it isn't bad enough for me to use acne products just a couple here and there. i'm currently using Cerave face wash and moisturizer, along with The Ordinary niacinamide serum, plus a hydrating toner and using a glycolic acid toner twice a week. my skin is better, but the pores and a few wrinkles around my eyes are bothering me really badly. any suggestions for a glass skin look? bonus for anyone who can give me a good hydrating primer that's cheap, my makeup is always cakey i swear submitted by /u/CurrentAggressive466 [link] [comments]
