Hi I have been using tretinoin gel 0.025 for about 3 weeks and much skin just appears red and pink. Is there any products to help subside the redness? I feel like everyone just stares because my face is sooooo red and pink. What helps with this side affect? Should I stop using it or continue to use it until my skin gets used to it?

Id stop before real damage occurs..just look at my post "tazorac destroyed my face"
tazorac and tretinoin are both retinoids..some people have very bad reactions..many of whom did not stop when they first noticed the beggining of negative side effects..
unfortunately for me, the reaction was immediate after only one use..and I only used it once more after that..so only twice and I'm left in quite a sad state right now..hoping to the nonexistent God that my skin heals and goes back to normal..but it's been two months since this happened and no improvement
