Shower daily. Sugar scrub weekly. Jojobo oil as needed on whole body. Moisturizer on joints and feet as needed. Cream/ointment a minute after moisturizer to seal it in a little more.

I try to take care of it a bit, though I know a more routine routine would be better just difficult for me.

Wash face with body wash that has honey, olive oil, dead sea minerals. Don’t put much effort into it but it’s the body wash I found doesn’t irritate my skin.

Water
Body soap
Done.

Liquid Neutrogena followed by Aveeno moisturizer in the shower.

Stridex pad periodically throughout the day if my face starts to feel oily.

I used to have a whole shave routine that included Proraso and Old Spice, but the ritual started feeling less zen and more like a chore so I don’t really do it much anymore.

I try to use lotion with SPF 30 every day, and I use retinol a few times a week. I’ve thought about adding topical vitamin C in as well. I don’t have a strong preference for any specific brand.

You’re using too many products. All skincare products are loaded with microplastics and hormone disruptors. The body wants lots of natural sunlight and exercise and vitamin D. The liver stores vitamin A for years and vitamin D for months so you don’t need to supplement daily but adjust the dose. Try washing yourself with just water and using a natural soap only as needed.

I don’t have one.

Showering.

Thanks.

I wash my face with soap and water. That’s it, I’m a dude, why would I need anything else?

Morning: Check that it’s still there and keeping my body unified
Noon: Check that it’s still there and keeping my body unified
Afternoon: Check that it’s still there and keeping my body unified
Evening: Check that it’s still there and keeping my body unified. Sometimes I shower before bed.

In other words: I don’t really have one, and it seems to be working

I have atopical dermatitis so besides the good old showering and applying shampoo twice, once to get the hair clean and the second time to keep the product there while I clean the rest of my body, I use some speficic products concerning the affliction.

For the shower, I use a highly moisturizing gel from the local store combined with one that’s supposed to be special for the skin that costs 20 times as much, and Blue Cap as a shampoo recommended by my hairdresser to help with dry scalp.

I usually shave in the shower with hot water so I don’t really need any aftershave cream but I have one for when I dry shave.

Besides that, I have some local moisturizing cream to be used occasionally when the skin dries too much, and the occasional cortisone paste for eyelids and specific body parts that like to specially dry and have bad reactions.

When I feel specially oily (which is almost never because yay atopical dermatitis) I tend to buy some natural exfoliant shower gels and then apply moisturizing cream afterward to “replace” bad body oil with good cream oil I guess xD.

I have read that it shouldn’t be used at the same time as retinol due to PH requirements

You can use a chemical exfoliant and a retinoid in the same routine. You don’t have to worry about pH once the product is on your skin and absorbed. One concern is just that both can be pretty irritating, so using them together might be overly harsh on your skin. Maybe start slowly introducing them one at a time until you’re ready, and always see how your skin is reacting. If you decide to exfoliate in the morning, keep in mind that AHAs make your skin more sensitive to the sun, so sunscreen becomes extra important.

I have also heard about Vitamin E, though I’ve never used it.

Your CeraVe Moisturizing Cream contains tocopherol, so you’re already using it. I don’t think you need to seek out a separate product.

• Shower
• Moisturizer

That is all, folks.

I have one skin, yes.

Showering is my skincare.

(I do not count the shaving)
