We would like to thank our sponsor Dear Brightly. We recently used the Dear Brightly service to try Night Shift- a dermatologist formulated tretimoin serum — and this stuff is terrific.
Tretinoin is actually the only FDA approved treatment for photoaging. Longterm exposure to the sun damages the skin, it causes fine lines and wrinkles big pores and dark spots. Tretinoin reverses that. Kevin and I saw that for ourselves when we used Night Shift. I am loving how my skin looks right now-- smaller pores, less noticeable fine lines
The catch is you can't walk into a store and buy a tretinoin serum. You need a doctors prescription. Dear Brightly will arrange for arrange for you to have a telehealth appointment with a doctor who will decide what formulation of tretinoin is best for you. After that, your serum will be straight to your door.
If this sounds like something you'd be interested in go to Dearbrightly dot com and if you enter the promo code MSHEET you will get 15 percent off your first order.
Join the revolution to close the gap between dermatologists and everyday people today!
