"this stuff works, i was probably just like you. reading this and looking at all the reviews saying &quot;just be patient&quot; and wondering when i could look back and say the same... here i am about 1 month later telling you. it works!!!  i&#039;ve used this with retin a micro + solodyn for about 1 month now and i gotta say this stuff works great it burns a bit and makes you worse before you get better but after 2-3 weeks you&#039;ll be fine. use moisturizer!!!  overall very happy!"
