Both of those products dry out your skin pretty bad (and are usually not intended to be used together) but as long as your skin doesn’t dry out a lot, they could work well together. For most people though, I think that they would dry out there skin way too much.

I agree, my skin is pretty tough but it cannot handle that combo. I wouldn't do it.

I've tried salyctic acid and retin A and they're both a bit too drying for me. Try Renova instead, its a Retin A type product but less harsh.
