For The Users of Retin A, and HQ

I was just wondering, how you handle the peeling process,
Does it continue to stink, everyday, when you apply the creams,
And how do you handle the peeling process, when you go out,
When it is very severe, and do you guys use any extra mousturizer

Any suggestions for mousturizer that are good against the peeling and when it stinks.

Do you mean the smell of the hq? Yeah it stinks, but it doesn't bother me anymore. When the peeling was really bad, I applied a little water to my face and/or a little oil or skin moisturizer. That way it makes them less noticeable.

The smell actually dies down a bit once it's absorbed... you can smell it again when you shower.. but so far no one has smelled me or turned up their noses when I walk by... LOL.. also, just cover with your regular lotion and cologne too.. but just as ususal.. don't over compensate and drown yourself in cologne.. LOL

Using exfoliating bath mitts, or loofah

I can't deal with the peeling when I use RA. So I always make sure I'm on break from school so I can just stay in my house. I'm very self conscious and I can't stand people looking at me crazy. Lol. Plus I wear make up. So putting make up on over peeling skin. Omg. Not a good look.

I dealt with the peeling with a microdermabrasion cloth used VERY gently.
I also applied a different skin lightening cream that was more moisturizing, that helped a lot. The smell? Lol a bit tart for sure but it goes away after a while.

Ooops!
Double posting.

Hahahaha oh goodness that's so gross. BUT. TOTALLY been there before chica. And omg. The worst is when you get in the shower and like you wash your face. It's like EVERYTHING is just FLAKING OFF. Lol. And make up? Well can't wear make up for like a good week at least. Otherwise it just looks like your face is SERIOUSLY falling apart. Omg.
