Common conclusions

You may need a retinol because retinol helps unclog pores by reducing the stickiness of the cells that clog pores. You should start with one night a week and build up steadily, bolting each subsequent week to an additional night. You should try out the H Vitamin A Serum with 0.5% Retinol.

You may need retinol because it promotes cell turnover, which prevents signs of aging and also diminishes and prevents fine lines and wrinkles. You could try out the RoC Retinol Correxion Deep Wrinkle Night Cream,  Peter Thomas Roth Retinol Fusion PM Night Serum, etc. Vitamin C serum also reduces the appearance of wrinkles. It is best to apply vitamin C before retinol, as vitamin C has a lower pH than retinol.

You should start using Vitamin C serum because  it has the ability to lighten hyperpigmentation, brighten skin dullness, and reduce dark spots. You can begin to see measurable changes in three weeks once you add vitamin C to your skincare regimen. It will help to decrease hyperpigmentation dramatically in around two months.

You should avoid using retinol because the very common side effects of retinoids is that they tend to cause irritation. Vitamin C is a better option for your skin because it can help protect the skin against many issues, such as dryness, etc.

You could use Retinol and Vitamin C serum too. Consistent and proper use of retinol and vitamin C can benefit your skin by treating acne and acne scars, evening skin tone, lightening hyperpigmentation, providing anti-aging effects by reducing the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines, etc.
