I tried the prescription Retin-A and it was way too strong even when blending it with an lotion recommended by the doctor. My face pealed & flaked so badly it was embarassing. I looked like my face was recovering from a bad sunburn. By the way, he also had me using it on the back of my hands.
I have also bought the weaker Retin-A in Mexico. I have a couple of tubes of it, but it is also very strong, even when I mix it with moisturizer, it burns my face.
Rebecca, how do you use it?
Where we live we can get it pretty easily. Someone we know is usually going shopping in Mexico, although it is getting more dangerous now. It's been a couple of years since I visited Progresso.
