Hi everyone
I was prescribed epiduo 2 weeks ago now and am really feeling lik giving up on it.
my skin is so so sensitive, anything I put on my face stings. My skin is bright red, and started peeling. I work every day so need to cover it with make up but it burns whilst it's on and looks horrific because of the cracked skin. Also my eye lids are bright red and feel burnt, I don't even put it on my eyelids!

im just getting a bit fed up of my skin being so sore all of the time! Did anyone else experience this on epiduo/ how did you deal with it/ how long did it last?

Any help would be much appreciated!

Hi there! This happened to me as well. Make sure that you are applying a acne prone lotion like Cetaphil as well, that is what my doctor told me. I did have a few weeks of driness and irriation, but you start to get used to it.
