I've used differin gel before but it doesn't seems to work on me. And you've to used it for a long period. I've quite a serious breakout previously and currently my skin is getting better. I found out a trick online, which is using fresh banana peel to rub on the acne or pimples can helps to cure those acne after a few application.

I also love using Etude House Pink Powder for Acne Spot treatment. It's definitely my holy grail product that I will repurchase without any further consideration. Also love Laneige's skincare...does help a lot in moisturisation, hydration, reduce sebum secretion and do helps to reduce acne.

Glad that it works on you. I used it for few month, but it didn't do anything to my skin. So I just stop using and tried Etude House Pink Powder Spot. Typically, benzoyl peroxide and differin do not do anything to skin. Only salicylic acid works on me.

next time may try out tretinoin cream

Differin is not working for me.
Any other retinoid that you would recommend?
