"i am 30 years old and my acne and skin had gotten bad in the last year. my skin felt gross and clogged. i went to a dermatologist for the first time in dec. of 2015 and he prescribed me tretinoin .05 .. i did a ton of research on it first. i began using the cream little by little. first a couple times a week. then 3, now i&#039;m up to 4x a week. this helped so that my skin didn&#039;t freak out. also start with a small amount, don&#039;t use it like a moisturizer and apply it only to dry skin, so wait 10 min. after washing your face. anyways, it&#039;s only been a month but my skin is doing so much better. no breakouts. my skin feels soft, no little bumps. i haven&#039;t experienced bad side effects, only some dry skin, but i&#039;ve been very careful."
