I’ll start: ‘there ya are now’

I started with once a week for about 2 months as I was very nervous (I just bought tret OTC in Thailand so wasn’t prescribed it / given instruction). My skin has always been extremely dry so I was worried about damaging my barrier.

About a month ago I started twice a week and tolerated it well aside from a couple of days of peeling and some more spots than normal.

This week I started twice three times a week.

My question is to those of you with dry skin who started tret for anti aging results (fine lines, dehydration, etc).
How does my routine look to you / what would you change?

My routine:
AM: wash with moisturising gel
Hydrating serum
Eye cream
VitC serum
Moisturiser
SPF

PM: non tret nights wash with moisturising gel(cleanse with oil cleanser first if wearing makeup)
Hydrating serum
Eye cream
AVST1 serum
Moisturiser

PM: tret nights wash with moisturising gel (cleanse with oil cleanser first if wearing makeup)
Hydrating serum
Eye cream
Light layer moisturiser
0.025% tret
Light layer moisturiser

Thanks!
