"i&#039;ve been to dermatologist over the years and allergists also. it wasn&#039;t until i was prescribed epiduo that my skin started to improve to the extent that i no longer wear any makeup.   i haven&#039;t been able to do that for years. it may still and dry your skin a little but a bit if moisturiser in the morning and a clear skin makes it all worth while. i am very appreciative to the doctor that prescribed it for me"
