Using Differin Gel For Anti-Aging | Over-The-Counter Retinoid

April 17, 2023 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

Today I want to talk to you about Differin Gel as an anti-aging product. I enjoy my mid-30s skincare routine and some of my favorite items that I don’t talk about often because they aren’t new but they are things I use daily. I have used Tretinoin in the past but if you need an over-the-counter, affordable retinoid, I want to encourage you to try Differin Gel.

Differin Adapalene Gel 0.1% Retinoid

Differin contains the ingredient adapalene which is a retinoid that fights fine lines, dark spots, and dull skin. Differin stimulates collagen production and helps with dark spots by exfoliating the skin. It also helps with clogged pores and acne, which is what I originally used it for in the early aughts when it was by prescription only. It also has anti-inflammatory properties. You do need to ease into it, and you only need a pea-sized amount. I use it every other night and tretinoin on the “off” night. I apply it after my toner and before my moisturizer. It is very important to use S.P.F. when using a retinoid (but really, all the time! 365!).

Do you use a retinoid? Have you tried Differin Gel?

ROC DAILY RESURFACING DISKS REVIEW

October 8, 2018 & Leave a Comment

Hi there! Happy Monday!

I hope that you had a fantastic weekend and are feeling ready to tackle the new week. As the weather changes, I love to have my first string skincare standbys ready to go because the weather can wreak havoc on my skin, and while it’s usually pretty forgiving of my testing out tons of different things (blogger probs), sometimes I make it angry when I try to do that during a season weather shift. I love sharing new or new-to-me products with you, but today I want to share something that’s been in my arsenal for months now but I’ve yet to shout-out in the form of a post.

 

 

About RoC Daily Resurfacing Pads

The pads are self-foaming, dual-textured disks that contain skin conditioners and are clinically shown to improve the appearance of skin in as little as one week, yet they’re gentle enough for everyday use. One side of the disk has a soft pad and the other side is exfoliating.

My Thoughts

I have raved about the RoC Retinol Correxion Eye Cream (read that post here) but when I first got these I wasn’t sure if I’d find a use for them since I already use a PMD (best tool!) for home exfoliating and microdermabrasion, and I have my go-to facial cleansers and makeup removers. However, I now use these pads and really see their benefit. They suds up incredibly well and they stay very saturated forever! I have read a lot of reviews where they say they cut the pads in half, which I haven’t done but it is totally genius! These pads are generous in size, and they last me for a very long time because I do not use them daily. I love that on evenings when I don’t make the time for a long skincare routine I still have a nice way to cleanse my skin and get a nice exfoliation. I do not use these daily, but I use them about two times each week and do feel that my skin looks noticeably less dull (especially in the winter months!) and my complexion looks very even. I use a lot of skincare, so it can be hard for me to give all the credit to any one product, but this is one that I’ve tested a lot and can say that it doesn’t irritate my skin, and it reliably cleanses, exfoliates, and improves the look of my skin.

My Routine

I do not use this as a makeup remover, but I can see how in a pinch it would work to use the soft side of the pad. I remover my makeup and then I add a bit of water to the pad and sub it together to get it to suds up. I then use the soft side of the pad by the delicate eye area and the exfoliation side on my neck, chin, jawline, cheeks, nose, and forehead. I do about one minute of exfoliating so that it can be effective. I then rinse my skin and pat it dry gently before continuing with my nightly skincare routine.
