a bit off, how is carnosine comparable to topical (in high concentrations each:) retinyl palmitate, tretinoin, copper peptides, hyaluronic acid, fulvic acid, trichloroacetic acid, alpha and beta hydroxies - lactic, glycolic combined?

I made a mixture with alpha lipoic acid and DMSO, didnt like the way it orked, so I try other things, found out that any skin irritation woul be augmented when using ALA in conjunction with some thing else, the best mix I use was plain natural yogurth and ALA, it allows for a gradual absortion in the skin for ALA, while at the same time hydrates the skin, I used it for about a week the skin loked very hidrated and fresh (visibly) and the texture much softer and supple.

I did notice that it also made a difference the PH of my skin, which most often that not is acidic, I guess due to everyday pollution.
