hey lkk what are ya using for moiturizer???

hey guys!! i just wanted to let you guys know that the 8% AHA lotion from Neostrata (here in canada-don't know if you get it there) is awesome! that is what i have been using and definitely getting the "glow". What bp lotion are you guys using besides dans...what is different about dans lotion and the other ones? and can't you lke become immune to bp (that's what I am afraid of so don't bother using it) Oh and for my SA treatment I just use the aspirin mask twice a week but every night I take an empty water bottle and put warm water in it and let 2 aspirin (generic brand) dissolve and put it on my face like a toner and let it sit for about 5 mins or so and then wash off and moisturize with about 1/2 a pump of the aha lotion and complex 15 lotion. I think i want to start using tretinoin or some form of retinol about 2-3 times a week. SA + retin a is supposed to kick the butt of clogged pores!!!

I'm not sure what gives me the glow either, but I noticed that after I use the SA and pat my face dry, it already looks like it's glowing. So maybe that's what does it for me. I've heard of Neostrata but I don't know if I've ever seen it in any of the drugstores near my house. I'll have to look again.

The BP I'm using is just the CVS brand. I'm not sure what the difference is between Dan's products and any others, though. I do know that he's mentioned on his site that 2.5% is enough, you don't need 5% or even 10%.

Just this afternoon I got some tretinoin in the mail. I ordered it a few weeks ago from an online pharmacy and forgot that I did. I'll let you guys know how it works for me!

hey boston girl! I just got my prescription for it today too! I am about to go get it from the pharmacy right now..so this is great cuz we are starting on the same day and can compare results...however i must say that I do not plan on using it every night...mostly every 2 or 3 days...but dang...really need a flippin sunscreen...who woulda thought it would be so hard! I went today and tried the La roche posay spray and lait and something else...the spray was WHITE! the lait i am gonna have to check out again...but i think it was too sticky and the third gave me a rash (on my arm-didn't put it on my face and don't plan on it). I am going to try shiseido and vichy next and maybe ocean potion and will keep you posted on the results!

Hey curiousP! We'll definitely have to compare results with the tretinoin. The one I have is in a blue and white tube. It says Isotrex Gel 0.05%. I'm going to use it every other night. Let me know how it works for you!

Definitely keep me posted with your search for a good sunscreen. I was at the store today and didn't see anything that I thought I would really like.
