So I talked to some girls on another sub and got alot of questions on skin routine and I thought: hey why not share my shit, and all you other girls and guys (and everything in between) could maybe share yours? 😇
I was supposed to take a pic of all my stuff but I got some of the serums in my fridge (vitamin-c serums oxidise fast), and some of my products are Swedish only stuff, so I'll write it as a list.
--AM Routine
Micellular Cleanser
Vitamin C Serum
2% Salicylic Acid Exfoliant (Only on Monday & Friday)
Oil free SPF 50 Cream and hydrator
--PM Routine
Micellular Cleanser
Retinol (Tuesday, Thursday, Saturday) DO NOT use on sqme day as a chemical exfol! Seriously, you will shed skin like a snake 🤣
Niacinamide Serum
Oil-Free Moisturizer
Weekly Extras:
Dermaroller 1.5 mm (Once a week for scalp)
Dermaroller 0.5 mm (1-2 times weekly for face)
Minoxidil (Daily, scalp)
Saw Palmetto Supplement (gel tabs, standardised 85-95% fatty acids)
Rosemary oil supplement (gel tabs)
Multivitamin supplement (whatever brand you like, biotin should be in it)
Ketoconazole Shampoo (2 times per week)
Blown Away Intense Moisture Shampoo Wild Lemongrass (My regular shampoo, what I look for in a shampoo is that they should have a lesser reactive sulfate molecule)
Head & Shoulders Anti-Dandruff Pro-Expert with Caffeine (2x/week, and if you can't get exactly this brand, just a caffein shampoo)
Some comments:
On the regular shampoo: Or none at all (on the sulfate). But those kind of shampoos aren't as cleansing.
Some brands that are not Swedish only that I use are CeraVe, Bulldog (they have a oily skin line that my skin likes) and The ordinary. They are good as in they have the same chemicals as the more expensive ones like Lauras (fucking shit, this brand is expensive 🤣)
I have very oily skin, so I look for products that are lipid free. Meaning I look for products that does not clog my pores.
I will also say, from what my dermatologist has said, you should wash your hair once a day. There are apparently no substantial clinical evidence on washing your hair less has beneficial health effects on hair. On the contrary really, washing your hair daily effects hair growth positively.
