Anyone been on adapalene and azelaic acid?

[Mess]

I'm getting adapalene (0.1%) and azelaic acid (15%) soon from a chill Indian dude. Anyone tried the combo before? If so, any tips and before/after pics are much appreciated!

adapalene did nothing but ruin my skin ngl, tret has been a lot better for me

I'm sticking away from tret for now. I'm at least going to try a weaker retinoid before hopping on the big stuff. The purge phase is terrifying to me tbh.

its really not all that scary bro. honestly i have some of the most sensitive skin (literally would peel from adapalene) and i got used to tret after a couple weeks. i did peel a bit tho tbh
