You might have too high concentration or smth

I use it every other night after moisturizer and when I wake up I feel like my skin is a little more clear in terms of coloring

I used to just put it on with no moisturizer or anything, and it would make the skin dry, learned recently it should be like last part of routine

its 5%, I'll use it tonight to see. It says on the bottle it depigments and helps reduce photoaging of skin. I'm using clindamycin + tret + moistruizer now, will add azaelic acid
