| Do any of you have issues getting all of the product into your skin? Especially since I've increased the Tretinoin from 1/2 gram to 1 gram per night, I can't get all of the product to soak into my skin even after continous massaging/rubbing. Every time I'm left with balls of white gunk on my face. I do have a rather small face and have to buy children's sunglasses, but I don't know if that's the reason for the excess product. I've considered splitting the dosage into half, waiting for that to soak in, then apply the other half of the dosage a little later to make sure I'm getting all the product. Is there any problems with doing this? |

How much of the little balls are you talking about? I had a little of that, but it was not much and I would just use a tissue and white off the balls. If it is excessive, are you making sure you blend the Blender and Tretinoin really well before you apply to your face? You could try what you said, apply half and wait for that to absorb and then apply the other half. |

| Thanks rileygirl. There aren't a lot of white little balls...just had never experienced it before I had increased the amount of Tretinoin so was slightly concerned and bothered that I was wasting product. Last night I did go ahead and split the dose, waited about 15 minutes, then reapplied the rest and it absorbed well (no little balls). So, might have to keep doing that. Thanks again! |
