For medical reasons I need to update my routine to be completely retinol free 😭 (including alternatives like bakuchiol).

What’s the next best thing ingredient wise for fine lines? In the AM I was thinking a Vitamin C+E Ferulic (and sunscreen which I use daily)? For PM I’m not sure on EGF, peptides (copper?), or just something ultra hydrating? I have an acidic exfoliating mask to use periodically that I love so Im good there, unless there’s a major benefit to using something less intense on a daily basis instead.

At this point it’s mostly preventative, Im in my 30’s with a couple faint lines and my skin is in good shape
