It's an exfoliator, so, essentially, it will. also, first few weeks, will cause peeling, redness, drying and seem to cause breakout, that's because the peeled skin is exposing zits that would have come to surface anyway, you just get to see them sooner. I also used Benzoyl peroxide 10% after applying Retin A Rx medication. I was told to use mild soap, Dove, have been for more than 20 yrs. Retin A is not supposed to be used near eyes, but, the added benefit, is it's migratory, so, w absorption, it does get near eyes, less wrinkling as that is one of it's other uses. Oh, and I have used it on my eyelids/upper/lower area when I used Obagi Nuderm. That was fantastic as one product was 4% hydroquinone, bleaching agent. powerful, Retin A and bleaching agent, at 4 wks, skin was fantastic, completed 6 wks, then opted for ';blue peel';, peeled even more next 2 days (weekend). on Monday, superfantastic. Sunday, itchy,itchy, scary looking too. one girl in Nordstrom got nauseated from the ';burned'; appearance of my face. Next day, perfect. I've used it since 70's, when it was in liquid form! just keep saying for acne,and use as directed. of course, I like the max str avail. Skin gets used to it. little sun sensitive, but no problem... skin has a turnaround of 28 days, meaning every month, ';you get a new face';....
