make skin clear and toned, my skin looks flawless and is unbelievably smooth. Cleared up all the small pimples under the skin. Absolutely love this product
flaky around the mouth and my eyes kinda burn when i put on concealer, plus the initial break out was pretty bad
Been using Retin-A for 10 yrs now and yes in the beginning it made my skin alot worse but after 3 weeks my skin was clear and has stayed that way since!! I absolutely love this stuff!!
Took about 3 weeks before it started to work, it made me break out before it got better, and made me very sensitive to the sun!!
