well, my face seems to be calming down a little bit. Still a lot of
redness and bumps after shaving and getting out of the shower. The
pimples that cropped up within just a few days of starting the
RetinAMicro seem to be dying, though still some red marks on my cheeks
(and my cheeks never got red marks before!). Dont know if the zits are
a result of stopping Proactive, or starting RetinA Micro.
The most sensitive area is around my mouth. My lips and the area
between my lips and chin are extremely red and chapped, dry, stinging.
I keep putting moisterizer on my lower lip but it just keeps peeling.
I dont know about this stuff. This "worse before better" stage better
not last very long, and the "better" has to be significantly better
than the cheaper Benzoil Peroxide I used to use in order to justify
using it. I'm really hoping its not a constant battle between
redness/irritation versus acne. |

Using Retin A and Proactive may be too much, if you add Carley's to your
Retin A your face will probably turn into a red irritated ball.
Both products exfoliate and dry the skin to a point, I would not recommend
you use both together.

Oh I would never do that. I'm talking about one or the other.

Oh thank goodness. I had some scary visions. I have Carley's and
personally I felt it was just a little too harsh for my face (those walnut
shells) . I'm going great with my Proactive knock of Klear Action and I was
contemplating going back to using Retin A, but not any more....I actually
got a compliment on my skin after using the kit for a little over a month.
