Pros

  • If your not adjusting to Tretinoin then lower down to a retinaldehyde such as medik8 crystal retinAL

  • If she wants something bougie but effective switch to Medik8, specifically the Crystal Retinal and the Pro-collagen Peptide cream.
  • Medik8 Crystal Retinal is loved and comes up to near prescription strength, so I'd look there if you can't stay on tret.

[Medik8 Crystal Retinal](https://us.medik8.com/products/crystal-retinal) comes in many strengths and great for either oily or combo skin (less great for dry skin). It's packed full of good stuff so it's more than just a retinoid product. The downside is the price and you'll go through a tube every 30 to 45 days applying nightly.

Medik8 crystal retinal — they have a dedicated eye cream in three different doses. Personally, I use the lowest dose for the face (Level 1 = 0.01% retinal) for my under eye area. I have very sensitive skin and this is one of the few products that does not irritate my skin.
