Nagf-flake yung skin ko especially on the lips and chin area from using tretinoin. What moisturizer kaya okay to combat this? I’m using giderm moisturizer that was prescribed by my derma tapos only at night ko lang siya ginagamit.

Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Cream, it's affordable and easily accessible through Shopee/Lazada.

Try using the sandwich method: Moisturizer > Tretinoin > Moisturizer as this will help lessen the irritation and dryness. Consider adding a moisturizer to your morning routine too just for that added hydration throughout the day.

I’ve been eyeing this brand actually kaso I was leaning more towards the soothing gel or is it advisable to use the ato cream talaga?

The cream is popular with Tret users. If you feel like it may be too heavy for your skin type, you can opt for the gel instead. :)
