I’m almost 27, and recently noticed some fine lines have become super pronounced. It’s really affected my confidence - feel like I lost a lot of collagen all at once. I know it’s not unique at all and that you start to lose fat at this age, but I feel like it’s happening rapidly, I’m so embarrassed, I feel so undesirable.

Are there any retinols I can start that are not too harsh for super dry skin (or won’t dry my skin out more)? I don’t deal with acne, so I’m scared of purging, my concerns are fine lines and preventing wrinkles. I was thinking of using the La Roche Posay B3 Serum (their products usually work well for me) but I know it has alcohol in it (so some people say it might not be the best).
