Differin Adapalene 0.1% Gel – 15g

Differin Gel (0.1% adapalene) is a powerful, dermatologist-developed retinoid for treating mild to moderate acne, available over-the-counter.

It works by unclogging pores, reducing inflammation, and preventing new acne, with visible results often appearing within 2–12 weeks. It is generally applied once daily in a thin layer over the entire face, not just as a spot treatment.

Application: Apply a pea-sized amount to the entire affected area (not just spots) once daily, preferably at night.
Side Effects: Potential for dryness, irritation, redness, and a burning sensation, especially in the first few weeks.

Usage Tips

Cleanse your face and apply a moisturizer before or after the gel to manage dryness.
Consistency is key; skipping days can lead to setbacks.
If irritation occurs, try using it every other day, then gradually increase to once daily.
