I agree with Gr8stuff, It only needs to be used once in the evening or even once everyother night, and you will still get great results in good timing. 0.1% is the strongest, 2 and 3 times is too harsh on the face and will cause a lot of irritation. I use 0.05% and that is strong enough for me, so if cutting back doesn't help, best to switch to a lower strength.

Yeah well I've given myself a break for 2 days the ill start with just the hq in the morning and hq and retin a at night?
I really don't wan to switch tough because I just bought tubes of this strength :\

It's good your giving your skin a break. Has your redness and irritation faded yet? Retin-a at night or everyother night, you can give it a try but if you still see no improvement, continue to cut back on the amount of times per week that you use. Apply retin-a about 20 min after washing on dry skin and not damp skin.

OK thanks golden I will start tomorrow!
But the redness is still kind of there but its more of a pink and my skin looks so light!
Haha kind of like that pinkish look Caucasian people have? Lol

fairr,

How's it going ? Any more updates ?

Oh no :\ I've had to stop with m lightening regime to concentrate on my acne; it's so bad :\
But lucky me I got perscribed tretitinoin .05% for my acne!





So at the moment I'm cleansing with tea tree oil twice a day, using duac in the morning, the tretinoin gel at night and using a lot of spf :\
