I read this as ‘Nightmare Routine’ at first 😂

[jenniferroserocks]

Thank you for sharing your night time routine Dr. Liu! You did another video about the two Alastin products you like, the nectar and the Restorative Skin Complex. I purchased the latter and I will be some what following your p.m. routine, although I guess I will use the Restorative Skin Complex as a moisturizer at the end? I am excited to see what the extra peptides in my routine can do! Your skin is fabulous!

Dear Dr. Jenny. I love your routine and I'm gonna use some of your products. My question is, How long should you leave your cleanser on before rinsing off?

[katrinadeleon]

Hi Dr. Jenny! Thank you so much for sharing your routine. I plan on trying the Cerave benzoyl peroxide to curb my hormonal acne as well. I’d like to ask, when you do your weekly exfoliant treatment, do you follow with your retinoid or skip it altogether? Thanks in advance!

Hi Dr Jenny. I just found your videos and love them! They are so helpful and insightful! I was wondering if you have any experience with the Derma E skincare line. Ulta has it on their website as one of the dermatologist recommended brands and I would love to hear your thoughts on it! Thank you!

[nicolemarr]

Loved this! I have dry acne prone skin, which I rarely hear anyone talk about! I have only tried salicylic acid cleansers before so definitely going to reach for ceraves benzoyl peroxide wash and see how I like it! Is it better to use this wash in the PM?

[roweena]

Thank you for your very informative videos…what do you recommend for melasma night time skin care routine? Please reply…thanks.

I thought it said your nightmare skincare routine lol I adore essences! Tatcha is wonderful, but my favorite is Diorsnow essence, or Dior Capture Totale👍👍

[bwhite]

Dr. Jenny Liu, I have been using the benzoyl peroxide cleanser and love it! I was wondering when you use your leave on exfoliating treatment do you also use a benzoyl peroxide cleanser or a non medicated one? Thank you!

[janinadalziel]

On the nights you use the AHA, is it the same step as the retinoid or should it be layered differently? Thank you in advance!

[galato]

Please give us options OTC for the Alastin. Thanks.

[robind.]

Hi Dr. Liu. Can the tatcha essence be used twice a day and if yes, is it okay to use before using the SkinCeuticals vitamin c serum or should the essence product not be used in conjunction with vitamin c. Thank you.

[pausang]

Should I use clindamycin after using that cleanser?

[rinaflores]

So its just fine to use peptide serum on retinoid nights?

[kabagisngailokana]

Hi dr jenny can i use hydro boost water gel moisturizer with hyaluronic acid while on tretinoin?

[trenab]

Where in your routine do you use the exfoliant? Do you wear it all night or wash it off before applying the other products 🤔?

[deannavazquez]

I had a question 😭 I wanted to know if I can and should use cervae salicylic acid for closed comedones? Or differin with benzoyl peroxide ? Or can I use both salicylic acid in the morning? And benzoyl peroxide at night?
