The side effects can be so off-putting using this product. I started towards the end of September so I am going on my third month now and I'm STILL battling peeling, flaky skin. I am using Retin-A micro 8%. I thought I was over the peeling and then it started back up as soon as the colder weather came in. Grrrrr! I am not mixing my Retin-A with my Cerva p.m. moisturizer. However, underneath the peeling and flakes I can see that my melasma has gotten lighter and my complexion is getting smoother. Trying to just wait it out.

I'm gonna try getting back on my Retin tonight. I am thinking it was my sunscreen. This morning when I woke up the lil pimples are still there but not sore like last night. My face is still very dry. Ima maybe just not put any on my checks. That's where is badly dry... I'm hoping ur flakiness ends soon but the winter prolly won't help that much on it going away :( today instead of sunscreen I wore a mask ️️outside that just had my eyes visible lol keep the wind and the sun off from it lol good luck with ur journey :)

Awe - you look so sad.
I did some research and found this informative FAQ, check it out: Will Retin-A Make my Skin Worse Before It Gets Better?

Lol I was very cery sad. I seriously think it was the sunscreen I found my cetaphile cleaner n lotion and omg it did the job. My face is still broke out but not as bad. I medicated my face again last night just a pea size... First 3 days I used like 5 pea sizes lol the lotion is actually helping better than anything I have used. I put the lotion on and rub it in and the dead skin just peels off. I will wash my face 3 times a day wth the cleanser and as far as moisturizing I don't have t do it near as much as when I was using the coconut oil. I am trying to stay inside to stay out of the wind and sun so I don't have to go thru another breakout possibly from the sunscreen. I have like 4 different kinds but I am kinda scared right now to use it lol I went out yesterday and put a face mask on to block everything and keeping to have to put sunscreen on. I took a pic lol I'll post it :D my face is doing much much better tho :)
