Whats your normal skincare routine, and is it 20% concentration?

It's effective for mild acne, but you need to apply it twice a day every day, otherwise you won't notice any improvement. You could just add it to your current skincare routine if it's working for you. You could also start taking isotretinoin and stop using this routine altogether.

Alright, I only really got mild acne so this will work good, but can I really implement it with stuff like retinol?
