Ive been using the .025% retin a CREAM for acne for about 2 and a half weeks now, going through the initial break out. My question is, have any of you ever used the cream for acne, instead of the gel?..my skin has never rashly been too oily, just comfortable, sometimes some dry spots in the winter. If so, how long did your initial breakout last? Did you wear makeup in the daytime; which kind? Did it work to heal your hyperpigmentation? This question is for retin-a cream, not the gel or retin-a micro..also, which strength of it were you on?..did you use other medications with it? Thank you!
