"hello everyone!! i wrote a review on the .05% retin-a about two months ago at my 3-month mark, so i&#039;m back a little after my 5-month mark! so i&#039;m still pleased, as my skin is getting better (slowly, but still!!) i used to wear a medium-full coverage foundation but now i can just wear a thin layer of tinted moisturizer and be satisfied! around my time of month, i get a big pimple here and there, but i definitely noticed that the tretinoin limits the number&amp;size&amp;recovery time of my acne. hopefully by christmas(8-month mark and my birthday month!!) i will have clear skin:) good luck fellow tretinoin retin-a users!!"
