TL;DR: HG! 🏆 The only thing keeping my skin from burning off while on retinoids! Great for sensitive skin. Helps with my acne, but not a surefire solution.
Before I was on retinoids again, I saw a really good clearing of acne on it. After tretinoin cream broke me into cysts, and I switched to Skinfix's Adapanoid Gel, this didn't solve the purge, but it DID make my usual skin sensitivity Show more

How this broke me out? I truly don’t know. I’m almost too embarrassed to admit it, but I know others have gotten cystic acne from this so I want to share my experience in case someone is questioning if it’s just them.
I also tried La Roche Posay's thermal spring water but this one is clearly superior. It actually calms and soothes irritated and inflamed skin.
