    Makari with Retin A
    I have acne that I am trying to get rid of I was precribed Retin A. I want to use Makari to lighten my skin. But I read that Makari lightens amazing, but causes horrible breakouts. I was wondering if I use Retin A with Makari would that counter the acne? Like if I use Makari in the morning then then at night I use retin a and 30 minutes later I put Makari on?
    Thanks! I was going to buy Fair and Flawless 5x but that's really expensive so I want to try something cheaper in price before resorting to that.

    I wouldn't do it. That's too much stress on your skin. Especially the skin on your face. It's way too fragile for that. I'd just use the Retin A. That alone in itself is going to lighten you one or two shades if you use it faithfully.
