"I'm going to show you guys Skin Ceuticals 0.3, 0.5, and 1.0. The most important lesson that I want to convey here is that percentages are not what matter, it's not that the strongest is better, it's about which percentage can you tolerate consistently. Especially after menopause when your skin is already drier, more reactive, more sensitive. Not because you're hopefully wiser in life means you're going to tolerate the 1.0. Your skin is going to ultimately decide the strength."

"You can also try SkinCeuticals, which has 0.3, 0.5, and 1.0 strengths. More of my patients get irritated using the SkinCeuticals 0.3 versus the L'Oreal. [...] If you're ready to go a little bit stronger, I'd go for SkinCeuticals. It's easily accessible and easy to find. SkinCeuticals retails at 70 to 80 dollars, whereas the L'Oreal is around 39 to 40 dollars. [...] The SkinCeuticals at least comes in a squeeze tube now."

Make sure you are reading labels and ingredients correctly."
