How To Use Differin Gel At Night

I ve been using differin for over a year now and a few things have changed since the last time i talked about differin on the blog.

How to use differin gel at night. Right now i m using a basic cerave cleanser. My skin feels clean and smooth after using it and that s all i need. I also have a few tips to share. I worked with my dermatologist. According to the differin website the product should be used once a day be it morning or night.

Clean and dry the skin thoroughly before applying differin. Avoid waxing or threading in areas you use the gel e g. For best results first wash skin with a mild non irritating non drying cleanser. How to use differin gel or cream differin cream or gel should be applied thinly once a day before going to bed. Apply a thin layer of differin gel to clean dry skin full face.

A couple times a month or leave things as is. This is what he told me. Nothing fancy here but it fit the no salicylic acid requirements that come with using the differin gel. Try to apply the product at the same time each day. First my skin is no longer sensitive the way it was after i finished my first few months of differin gel.

So far this addition has really helped. Though they suggest applying it at the same time every day for consistency s sake as long as you re applying it to a clean face and locking it in with moisturizer you should achieve the expected result. If you have plans to wax or thread i would stop using differin for at least a day or more. Step three the next thing i do is use toner. Differin gel causes new skin to constantly be exposed and so waxing and threading can upset your new delicate skin.

Don t put anything over and under it because it will inter. It s a decent cleanser. For waxing i would maybe wait 3 days. The redness is has gone from mega inflamed red to a light pinkish red and i m finally waking up with no whiteheads. I have been on 0 1 tretinoin for 30 years.
