Skin+Me - worth it or cheaper alternatives?

Can you please share your experience of this skin care subscription? I'm on month 4 and noticing some difference with pigmentation and freckles getting a bit lighter but keep thinking there are similar products on the market for cheaper. I saw Tretinoin cream selling online for £7 but it didn't have the other active ingredients like Azelaic Acid and Niacinamide. Any suggestions would help. Thanks

There aren't really alternatives that have all the different ingredients included, I suppose that's what you are paying for - the convenience of it all being in one cream and being delivered to your door. Also tretinoin is pretty hard to get in the UK without prescription, so you are relying on websites which might be a bit dodgy.

You could try the other subscription service Dermatica, or buy tretinoin separately and get the other ingredients in over the counter serums.
For example The Ordinary have a niacinamide serum which is good, I'm sure they would also have azelaic acid.
