Hi,
I'm beginning to use .025% Tretinoin cream. The instructions say to avoid the area around the mouth, but this is where I get many of my pimples (frequently on the border of my lips). Should I apply it there anyway? Have others done this? What is the reason for the instruction to keep it away from this area?
Thanks for the help!
just because its a very sensitive area, and will dry up and thin out alot quicker then other regions of your face, go ahead but less frequently.
Also i noticed you said cream, tretenoin creams ive heard are oil based rather than gel, alcohol based, which can clog up your pores.
