Is my regimen and the sequence correct? Do you see any issues here? <br /><br />2. I currently use a Clarisonic brush with a cleanser. I use this to get better cleaning, unclog pores, prevent acne etc. What are your thoughts on mechanical exfoliation using Clarisonic? Would I be able to use Clarisonic with LVCE?<br /><br />3. I have also been using a chemical peel (twice a week with Salicylic acid, Lactic acid and Glycolic acid) and also a 5% Glycolic acid toner every day mainly for exfoliation, removing blemishes and for even skin tone and texture - as well as reducing pores. From what I understand, NIOD philosophy does not recommend AHA/BHA acids. So, would using NAAP alone accomplish the same results as chemical peels and toner? Or would you recommend using NAAP in addition to chemical peels and acid toner?<br /><br />4. I currently use 0.25% Retin-A. Would it be ok to use both Retin-A and NAAP on the same night? <br /><br />5. Do you recommend using a moisturizing cream in addition to HV? My skin is combination, acne prone and on the oily side. <br /><br />6. I use Skinceuticals tinted sunscreen. Would photography fluid work well on top of tinted sunscreens? <br /><br />Appreciate your help!

My first impressions of this are positive as well!Jaynehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03380840338147529875noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1307031280633179968.post-36588661830281582652015-04-26T16:25:38.392-04:002015-04-26T16:25:38.392-04:00Jeebus, this does sound incredible.
