So, I'm a 19 year old female who's had acne for as long as I can remember. My skin also (was) extremely oily. Within the past few months my acne has flared up, and I broke it all over my forehead and cheeks. I went to see a dermatologist for my acne. She prescribed me a sulfur/sulfacetamide cleanser and adapalene .1% gel. Used it for approximately a week and a half, and now my skin is extremely dry, flakey, and it burns really bad (almost feels like a sunburn) underneath and around my eyes. I haven't used either treatment in about 5 or so days and I'm still having those symptoms! How can I fix my skin?

Use the adapalene cream only on the active spots. Wait 10 minutes and moisturize with a moisturizer for sensitive skin :)
