can you pair it with an ”Adapalene/Benzoyl peroxide Orifarm” cream? it is prescribed by a doctor for my acne but I wonder if it can be used together with the serum without any side effects
Hey Cassie! 👋🏻☺️
This product and your prescription medication for acne can be used together, BUT it’s important to be cautious, as both adapalene and benzoyl peroxide can be irritating to the skin, especially if you use them in combination with other active ingredients! 🩷
A few tips 👇🏻☺️
Test on a small area first: Since adapalene and benzoyl peroxide can be drying, it’s good to do a patch test to see how your skin reacts to the combination.
Use at different times: If you experience irritation, you can use adapalene and benzoyl peroxide in the evening and the serum during the day. This way, you reduce the risk of excessive irritation.
Moisturizing: Both of these products can be drying, so make sure to use a good moisturizer to keep your skin balanced and reduce the risk of irritation.
If you feel that your skin is getting irritated, you may need to adjust the usage or pause one of the products. It might be good to talk to your dermatologist for more tailored recommendations 🩷
Take care! 😍✨
