So why is it so popular? Water most often acts as a solvent - this means that it helps dissolve other ingredients into the formulation.

Wrinkle fighter, cellular turnover
Retinol did nothing for my skin. After using different kinds of strengths and seeing no results I decided to give up on retinol and start using tretinoin and it was the best decision ever. My skin is becoming clearer and clearer every day.

helps with acne
I tried tretinoin 0.025% and my skin had looked worse after 3 months then when I starter. My brother got prescribed clindamycin and got an extra tube for me to try. This saved my skin. My skin has never been this clear ever since I hit puberty. Holy grail!! I don’t experience any dryness, but my routine is hydration focused.
