Recently moved from 0.05% to 0.1% and skin is worse than ever
Hi all. A couple weeks ago I switched to 0.1% from a year of 0.05%. I don’t get severe dryness but I’ve noticed my skin start to breakout. My dermatologist also prescribed clindamycin phosphate gel 1% for the mornings which I have been doing for the same duration of time as the new tret.
My typical routine is to wash with cerave face wash in the morning, let dry, apply a thin layer of clindamycin phosphate gel 1% as needed, then cerave moisturizer. Then in the evening I wash with cerave face wash, let dry, apply tret 0.1%, then apply cerave moisturizer.
Is there anything glaringly bad in my routine or something I should change?
Edit: I also got a lot of sun exposure at the beach this weekend so I’m not sure if that is playing a role.
