I have been doing that for about a week now,I have been peeling a moderate amount and my skin has been only very mildly irritated in certain spots. I have been reading different forums and now ...I have become concerned that I may be negating the effects of the Retin-A.
Does anyone know if it's ok to apply moisturizer after Retin-A (about an hour after)?

*FYI* I am using it for fine lines and skin tone.My skin is normal with dry tendicies.
