Can anyone recommend a really moisturising night cream to use after putting tretinoin on - preferably under £10! Thank you 😊

Most definitely Cerave. Cheap and brilliant. I mix mine with a pea sized amount of tretinoin (prescription) every night before bed and it works wonders

Nivea Soft! It's brilliant and cheap as chips. At that price you can really slap it on too. I use that and Dermatica Tret and my skin has never been better.

I use either my N7 or if my skin is feeling dry then Astral. (0.06 tret every other night)

Cerave

I’m with Dermatica (0.1 Tretinoin) and don’t use a moisturiser with it. I tend to find moisturiser actually makes my skin dryer. I do sometimes use something in the winter months, LRP cicaplast or Avenue Tolerance.

I can't put anything over tretinoin straight away otherwise it stings like hell. I wait about 15 mins then put on Cerave cream. Something simple is best as you just want a protective layer while the tretinoin does the clever stuff.

I use Nivea Q10 night cream for sensitive skin - fragrance free, Lidl (Cien brand) Q10 night cream (has fragrance but what a beauty when it comes to hydration) . Both cheap and hydrating . Nivea often on special offer and the Lidl one is under £4. Nivea Soft is also fantastically hydrating but is fragranced. I have had no problems using these at night over 1% retinol (Boots No 7) and now .1% tretinoin ( Retirides).
