Can a non alcoholic toner and bio oil be used with Retin-A?

Question

Hi I am wondering can you use a non alcoholic toner at night before using RetinA or is that a big no no? Also any negative side effects of adding Bio oil after applying RetinA? Thank you

It is fine to use a toner before using Retin-A at night. There are also no side effects of adding Bio oil however I do recommend waiting for the Retin-A to dry after a few minutes before applying the Bio oil to make sure the medication has time to evenly absorb into the skin. Hope this helps!
