I want to include a retinol to my skin care, I'm 30 years old and I'm a newbie to proper skin care I have spot prone skin.

My current skin care routine

Wash face with a mild cleanser

Moisturise with no7 day cream

No7 eye cream with a retinol in(started using 2 months ago).

Followed by spf 50

The thought of using a retinol all over my face frightens me for some reason 😬😬.

Im on a budget and no7 seems like a good option to start.

Can anyone tell me how to use it ❤️
Thank you

I started a couple of times a week, overnight. Routine was cleanse then retinol. Leave to soak in then eye cream and night cream. in the morning I made sure to use a day cream with spf50. I believe Retinol should only be used overnight it makes the skin more susceptible to sunlight.

I had no reaction so now use every other night. I also started with the No7 as it was on offer and I like their products as they suit my skin.
