Re: non drying cleanser

if retina-a is working for you, i would reccomend that you still continue using it, but just apply a moisturizer right after you use retina-a. for acne-prone skin, i would use Neutrogena Oil-Free Moisture for Combination Skin. i use this, it really works. i love it and it's non-comodogenic. :]

Re: non drying cleanser

I do use neutrogena oil free moisturizer after i use the retin-a micro,but my face still drys out and peels unfortunatly.Ive taken to just washing my face with plain water.Thanks for the suggestion anyway.Take care.

Re: non drying cleanser

Gee the problem you were having with retin-a micro sounds exactly whats happening to me.What i dont understand is why it cleared my skin with minimal peeling for a long time,but just recently its started to be red almost like burn spots.I put it all over my chin.For a long time i didnt even have to wear moisturizer.I guess one of the reasons im afraid to try something else, is because either it might not work as well,or im going to have to go thru and initial breakout period.Im petrified of that.Thanks for your advice,maybe i will talk to my derm about it.Oh also what kind of acne did you have?I had cystic but not alot of them,but enough to freak me out.Take care.P.s i also forgot to mention i use clindamycin gel in the morning.
