Effaclar Adapalene Gel 0.1% Retinoid Acne Treatment

It's the same as differin, but cheaper per oz. Yes you'll purge, but smoother skin is on the other side! I started this every 7 days and now am up to every 3 after 2 months - its harsh on my sensitive skin but with lots of moisturizing products before hand and following good practices it hasn't been overly peeling, and I'm seeing amazing results clearing out my ccs

It's harsh. But worth it!

@codel you’re supposed to use it like an area cream so if you have a pimple then you’d apply a thin area including and around the pimple. If you have lots of pimple then apply the whole face. It’s not a spot treatment.
