Hello lybrate-user. You need to keep certain instructions while using retinoids on your skin. Otherwise it may not act properly or can even result in more acne and irritation. Apply it at night, start with lower %,use good moisturizer etc are a few things important in this regard. So 1st make sure you apply it correctly. Then we have other anti acne preparations as well which can work very much better regards.
