I've been using Differin for a few days. Just applying a thin layer at night, then moisturising when it's dry. Then in the morning just washing and moisturising.

My face is really starting to peel and moisturising doesn't seem to help. Is there anything I can do? Does it get better or is it going to be like this whole time I'm using it? confused.gif

It shoud get better as your skin adjusts to the differin. Wait AT LEAST 30 minutes to moisturize after applying the differin, eh? Cuts down on irritation.

I wasn't sure about how long I should be waiting. I was just waiting about 10 minutes until it felt dry.

I peeled pretty badly for a couple of weeks when I first started Differin. I remember it sucked. But just keep with it, it will go away.
