yo, got a question.
can i just start with 0.05% tretinoin or do i really need to start with 0.025% first? (0.05% is the only one I have access to right now)
also, how much does azelaic acid actually matter? i see a lot of people talking about using it with tretinoin but idk if it's something that's actually worth adding.
what do you guys think?

Azelaic is worth it.
Don't start off with 0,05% it's actually a huge difference. I reccomend having your face quite damp before applying ur 0,05% and apply very little, very very very little EOD. slowly build up to ED.

Okay, thanks for the reply. Do you think I should try the 0.05% for now and see how my skin reacts, or should I buy a tube of the 0.025% instead, put the 0.05% aside, and maybe come back to it later?
