I use rose water mixed with Nila powder as a toner throughout the day, here's my routine:
everyday AM+PM: cerave hydrating cleanser
sunscreen ofc
I cycle my skincare routine as follows
day1: AM cleanse ,adapeline ,sunscreen PM: cicaplast
day2: repeat day one
day3: no adaplene l, just sica and cleanse and slug
day 4: repeat day three
day5: wash, sunscreen+ moisturizer NO adapeline, glycolic acid toner at night and cica
I'd pass on NIla Powder - it is a waste of time. It is literally a blue pigment, so the alleged "brightening effect" could be simply the pigment traces remaining on the skin right after use.
I love your routine otherwise! 👍. See if you really need 2 rest days from adapalene, but if you feel they help you avoid irritation, stick to it!
