Retin A: How long does the dryness and peeling last? (Photo)

Asked By:mss2 in New York, NY

I have been using it for over 4 months now, once every 2 nights. Yet my dry peeling has not subsided. I cannot put on any foundation. Even if I moisturize well in the morning, by evening, the skin flakes start showing again. I do exfoliate 3 times a week, but it just makes the peeling worse. Will this never stop?
