Adapalene Gel 0.1% Acne Treatment

product review positives

Almost cleared my hormonal acne! Also changed mt complexion to be more glowy and smooth. This is a long detailed review so I’ll just get to it. I had hormonal whiteheads all around my jawline as a result of being off my birth control temporarily. Eve...

You have to go through the “purge”. Now if you research you will find that it should not make your skin worse than it has ever been, and you should not get lots of acne in new places. Thanks to the pandemic I wore my mask the whole purge while out in...

Adapalene Gel 0.1% Acne Treatment

product review positives

I've been using for 3 months. I am seeing less breakouts and fine lines look better. Definitely recommend as the strongest form of retinoid without a prescription in the US

product review negatives

Can cause flaking and dryness in the beginning. I suggest to buffer with a moisturizer under and over for a few weeks. Can move to just over after that

Adapalene Gel 0.1% Acne Treatment

This is a white, opaque 0.1% gel that comes in a squeeze-tube packaging I use a pea-sized amount to my face and neck, in my PM routine, on dry skin, after cleanser, before moisturizer, 3x a week. When I started using Adapalene, I needed to apply wit...

product review negatives

The cost factor is what is a miss for me. The La Roche Posay Adapalene is a lot more product for a lot less money and it’s honestly the same…similar ingredient list and texture so my guess is that were paying for the brand

product review positives

This is gradually fading away a lot of my acne. I have less breakouts and they last for a shorter amount of time.

Some people might experience skin peeling and irritation, but I haven’t experince that yet.
