    I am 66 years old and have very sensitive skin. Am just seeing the signs of wrinkles. I have never really used skin care before ... Dove soap and LRP Toleriane Double Repair Matte Moisturizer is all I have used. Saw your video about this Alpa Ret about a year ago and purchased it. I have not had 1 reaction to it and started using it every night right off the bat. My skin looks better than every and did not have to purchase another one until a little more than 6 months after and I had purchased the smaller size. I have gone up the the more intensive one and again no sensitivity issues. I used to wear full makeup every day even to go out and walk the dog. Now I just put on a SPF 50 and head out the door. I really like your videos and have learned a lot from you. Thank you and keep up the great work!

    I use AlphaRet's overnight cream every other night and am SO happy with it. I alternate with Paula's BHA leave on serum. Right now I also use SkinCeuticals Phloretin CF Gel in the morning. What are your thoughts on using a copper peptide serum (e.g.,DRMTLGY's needle-less serum) with the AlphaRet? I am thinking I can drop the BHA and use the copper peptides there.

    Skin Better is the best brand that I have tried so far. And I have tested many. I love the way the product feels, and it doesn’t irritate my skin nearly as much as tretinoin. It’s expensive but last longer because only 1 pump is needed. I wonder though, is tretinoin .1 % superior to this for anti aging purposes?

    If I am using tretinoin or tazarotene, does AlphaRet offer any extra benefits?

    PPS I am also using ascorbic acid and experimenting with peptides.

    I hesitated and had to think twice when I saw the cost of the product. I was skeptical as I’ve tried many fine brands over the years that did not help the issues I have with my skin. Then I looked in my bathroom cabinet at 7+ years worth of products I tried, not worked, and laughed as I was looking at a lot of money down the drain. So I ordered the skinscience line a month ago, have been using it daily, and shocked at how quickly my skin is starting to change. For one, my pores are looking really clean and less visible. I have a lot of black filaments on my nose that have dramatically decreased. I’m looking at a long term journey for my brown age spots, but seeing some “breaking up” of the solid spots which has encouraged me. Because I travel, I ordered the compact sunscreen for touch ups which has been wonderful. I was seated near a window in the plane with sunlight pouring in, pulled out the compact and patted my face down. I can even touch up in the car. I love the texture and silky, non-greasy feeling on my skin. I was skeptical of this compact, but I’m loving it and can’t imagine being without it as an adjunct to my liquid sunscreen. I found that skinscience has put a lot of thought into their packaging and ease of use while protecting the product from waste or light exposure. The sponge applicator in their compact is separated from the sunscreen which I like as I was worried about leaving a sponge I’ve used on my face on top of the product. For me, I’m cleaning out the old products from my bathroom cabinet and continuing with skinscience which I never heard about until I stumbled onto Dr. Sugai’s videos and now a follower!

  • @antoinekrauze8805

    My only concern here is that most derms warn about over exfoliation but recommend this product and to use it nightly but it has 10% glycolic acid. So is that ok or not? That’s the only thing blocking me from buying it.

    Hmmmmm.... you buy into the split face study from the manufacturer? Despite the fact that there were no vehicle controls comparing the active ingredients in their product. They have some other great actives that can help improvements. They didn’t nothing to show that the necessary biomarkers/pathways were actually activated (I’m talking crab 2 here) by this proprietary esther they claim is as good but less irritating. Is the retinoids receptor actually engaged as it has been show to be engaged in tretinoin (and other retinol) studies, for example. Tretinoin suppresses matrix metalloproteinase 9 (whereas in studies, retinol has not been show to do that. They haven’t shown that there is even any metalloproteinaise2 activity.
