For Acne "The first time using Epiduo was on Monday. It felt tingly but didn’t cause any pain, however, when I applied it on Tuesday, my skin began to burn to the point where I was uncomfortable the whole night. On Wednesday, it was just as bad. My skin felt hot, was stinging and burning, and was so painful. Cleansing and moisturizing was now giving me the similar burning sensation. On Thursday, my skin felt extremely tight, itchy, and sensitive. The skin around my mouth and on my chin was starting to peel, and it only got worse the next day. The peeling spread to around my eyes and eyebrows. I stopped using Epiduo because it was causing a lot of damage when I was seeing very minimal results. My skin is now extremely dry and sore, and I have to now see a dermatologist because it has only worsened my skin. My experience may sound insignificant due to the fact I only used Epiduo for two days, however, I want people to be aware of how painful and damaging this product can be."

For Acne "I just started using this. I probably put it on a grand total of 6 times, and my face is horrible. My face is swollen, red hot (to the touch and actually), peeling. My eyes are swollen, itchy, and dry. On the flip side, though, I only used it a few times and haven’t used it since, and my face has cleared up already. All my acne is not gone, but it is clearing up."
