ladies 30+ what is the best thing you've done for your skin? from topicals to lasers to injectables to surgical intervention, i'm curious what's been worth it to you! (besides daily SPF - we can all agree that's the absolutely necessary one)

I used to have terrible acne. People would remember my acne but never my name so skin has been a journey. Medical - chemical peels for discoloration and acne scars. 2-4x a year, I did this like every other month for 5 years to get it where it is today - lasers like clear and brilliant or laseMD for age spots and collagen. Once a year in the winter time for 4-5 sessions via package. - botox to raise my eyebrows to look awake Over the counter - spot treatment with retinol on active zits for high cellular turn over; kill bacteria and remove dark spots left behind — MAGIC - acid toner @ night with LHA/BHA every other day bc I have small pores so clean pores from pollution and bacteria - rich night cream with peptides and ceramides - tinted sunscreen for day time only

Ask me any skin care questions. I’ll give you a goody bag of samples next time I see you. I mainly use La Roche Poshay which is on Amazon and drugstores. My dermatologist got me onto it like 7 years ago. Cetaphil is also great and gentle. The doc can write a script for free too. Daily products at affordable prices then investing in the lasers 1-2x a year is the smart way to go IMO

nice okay yeah these are brands i already use/have access to in canada also so that's perfect! i've been using cetaphil since i was a teenager but i'm moving to cerave - i think i need a bit more from my cleansers now with how my skin has changed over 15 years. def more into your vibe of "affordable consistent daily maintenance + a few extras throughout the year" you're the best ty xoxo

I would try that retinol AND vitamin C for day time. Cetaphil makes better versions of them than LRP due to packaging for shelf stability.
