Retinol

Hello everyone!  I started using retinol for the first week. It makes my skin a little purging, but after that, my face turns normal again, and I notice my pores are larger than before. Is it okay? So should I stop using retinol?

A few years back I read that you should only apply retinol around the outer parts of your face avoiding your nose, marionette lines and around the lips. Maybe avoiding your nose and pores might help with this.
