Skin Care Review: Retin A Micro (for acne)

by Barbara, Palm Haror, FL United States

Rating
Adverse Effects

Benefits
Noticed some improvement of pigmentation irregularities

Drawbacks
Irritation and more breakouts (although they do heal quickly)

Details
After using Retin A Micro .1% for approx. 2 months my skin is breaking out more than usual. Also during exercise or sweating my skin burns really bad! My eyelids are peeling! And I really don't notice much improvment in pigment change. Im told I will eventually notice improvement but I am loosing my patience. I would like to know what cleanser and what sunscreens work best while using this product. I live in FL so sunscreen is a must and I am outdoors quite a lot. If someone can help I'd really appreciate it.

Conclusions
Too early to give advice. Just make sure you use a gentle cleanser and sunscreen.

Price (paid by reviewer)
$100+

Where to find it
Pharmacy
