Where NMN (nicotinamide mononucleotide) fits, how often to use it, and what to pair it with for barrier-first consistency.

Ceramides for barrier reinforcement
Sunscreen in the morning if you’re targeting long-term aging well
What to avoid stacking at first
Multiple exfoliants at once
Strong acids + strong retinoids in the same routine until you know your tolerance
