To open the product, remove the cap and insert the opposite side of the cap into the foil. Push down on the cap and twist until the foil is punctured.
Use once daily. Clean the skin gently and pat dry before applying product. Cover the entire affected area with a thin layer. For example, if your acne is on the face, apply the product to the entire face. Do not use more than one time a day. Applying more than directed will not provide faster or better results, but may worsen skin irritation. During the early weeks of use, your acne may appear to worsen before it improves (this is normal); continue use as directed, unless you get irritation that becomes severe. Irritation is more likely to occur in the first few weeks of use or if using more than one topical acne medication at a time but irritation usually lessens with continued use of this product. Applying more than directed will not provide faster or better results. It may take up to 3 months of once daily use to see results. For further instructions, refer to the Drug Facts on the packaging.
Precautions: Suitable for children 12 years and up. If pregnant or breast-feeding, ask a doctor before use.
Active: Adapalene USP 0.1% (Retinoid)* (Acne Treatment). Inactive: Carbomer Homopolymer, Edetate Disodium, Methylparaben, Poloxamer 182, Propylene Glycol, Purified Water, And Sodium Hydroxide.

Recommended by my dermatologist. My skin is doing much better. My face is smoother and blemish free.
Great for hormonal acne
I was on birth control for years then stopped and my face broke out really bad for months. I'm 22 but it was like i was 14 all over again. Started using this product and it did dry my face out so i started using it every once in a while and now I'm able to use it everyday with no problems. My face cleared up, and it helped with my dark spots too! Its a bit pricey and theres cheaper options out there with the same ingredients. Its worth it in my opinion. Just takes some time getting used to. And use a nice moisurizer. Finally feeling confident again :)
i would never buy this product again

Been using for 5 weeks, no noticeable improvement, but will try the full 12 weeks to evaluate effectiveness.
