30s & 40s Skincare Routine: How to Use Retinol & Acids Like a Dermatologist! | Dr. Idriss

I’m sharing my weekly nighttime skincare routine and exactly how I rotate exfoliating acids, retinol, and a targeted serum to fade dark spots, support collagen, and protect my skin barrier without irritation! Last week we talked about skin longevity, and so many of you asked for a sample routine. This is mine. It’s simple, realistic, and built around the actives that actually matter at this stage of life. You’ll see: • How often to exfoliate vs. use retinol • Why you should never use both on the same night • How I structure my week for dry skin + melasma • What changes in winter, perimenopause, and post-procedure skin • How to adjust this routine for your own skin type I also touch on two skin longevity supplements I personally use and walk you through exfoliation night vs. retinol night step by step. This is just a framework. Swap in what works for your skin while following the cadence! Reminder: If you’re new to actives: start low and go slow! 0:00 intro 1:41 supplements 3:07 weekly routine overview 4:59 monday night: exfoliation routine 10:20 tuesday night: retinoid routine PRODUCTS: https://shopmy.us/collections/3248015 Shop more of my favorite products here: https://shopmy.us/shereeneidriss FOLLOW ME 💬 ✨ Instagram (@shereeneidriss): https://www.instagram.com/shereeneidriss Instagram (@dr.idriss): https://www.instagram.com/dr.idriss TikTok: (@shereeneidriss): https://www.tiktok.com/@shereeneidriss Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/328289008475775/ #dermatologist #shereeneidriss #slowaging #antiaging #skincare #skinlongevity #30s #40s
