Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Hi all!

I am 26 y/o female. I have been using Dan's regimen for about 5 months now. I have had some improvement, but am still seeing some hormonal acne in my chin and cheeks. I am currently doing BP and lotion in the morning, then BP and lotion + AHA at night. I am considering buying OTC Differin to add to my regimen and replacing the nightly BP with it. Should a lotion be used AFTER applying a retinol? Would anyone care to weigh in on this? I would like to incorporate a retinol into my routine for the anti-aging benefits, but I would also plan to just use AHA about three times weekly for the exfoliating purposes as well. Below is a summary of the proposed routine, thoughts?

Morning:
Wash- Acne.org cleanser
BP- Acne.org BP
Moisturizer- Acne.org lotion

Night:
Wash- Acne.org cleanser
Differin (4 nights per week)
AHA-Acne.org AHA (3 nights per week)

Don't overdo it. Introduce new products slowly. And yes, you should use moisturizer before or after retinoid product.
