Cleared up my hormonal acne!

This really helped clear up the acne I was experiencing around my chin and jaw, and didn't cause any irritation. It's a product I'm going to keep on hand from now on! Use a thin layer of moisturizer before and after using it to avoid irritation. Helped my skin so much!

Works Great!

Works great on teenage skin. My teens use this nightly. My dermatologist also thought it was a great choice for teenage acne.

Multifunction Face Cream

Have on hand always, use when I have breakouts on my face, and nice to use as a Retin A cream at night.

Be patient, it works

I am pleased with the low price point of this vitamin A derivative, compared to retinol or even a retinol prescription. I have been using it for a couple months and never went through a purge period like others. I will keep using and have purchased a backup.

Sticky

I decided to try this after so many reviews described it as more moisturizing than Differin. I didn't find it more moisturizing--just very sticky. I will go back to Differin when this tube is used up.

Works well

I’ve had cystic type acne breakouts all my life & am still having trouble into my 60s with at least a monthly problem. I’ve tried many products. I tried this product 3 months ago and no more breakouts of what I call underground pimples that won’t go away for weeks! The product goes on well & dries quickly. My only complaint is that it is a bit drying (I have sensitive skin) even though I use a face cream but using the face cream twice a day has helped this problem which is well worth it! I would highly recommend this product.

The Best Adapalene Product

I much prefer this to the Differin Adapalane Gel. The texture is a little more smooth, more glide on the skin, and absorbs a little more quickly. I have used two small 15 ml tubes of the Differin prior to this product coming on the market. I buffer this over moisturizer (La Roche Posay Toleriane Double Repair + Cicaplast Baume. I really like this one, and this brand; specifically the Toleriane range. I highly recommend this Adapalene because you can frequently get 20% off here on LovelySkin, and the texture is superior to Differin. These Adapalene gels are not identical.

Good Product

I've only been using it for a few weeks, mostly for some spots of sebaceous hyperplasia on my forehead. I think it's working. Some the spots seem smaller and the skin looks smoother. It is drying, though, so make sure to use a moisturizer. I use it every day with a moisturizer and I don't get flaky. If I forget to moisturize, I flake.

Better texture than Differin

I prefer this formula for Adapalene than the one in Differin. It absorbs faster and feels better on the skin. Also a bigger tube!
