The Ordinary Retinoid

[Loveagoodbook]

I have started using some products from The Ordianary, to help with my awful skin tone, bad pores.
They recommended Saylcic acid, niacinamide and retinoid.
The first 2 products i started to use first and had no problems with.
Ive started to use the retinoid and my skin looks/feels awful, its like its highlighted my pores more and my skin feels dry, is this normal or have i used too much too soon for my skin?

Start with using it one night in every three and only at night.
Use moisturiser after about 20 mins if you need to.
Use spf on your face during the day.
Work up to every other or every night gradually if you want to.

Thanks, I'm just so impatient and can't wait, but I have realised I can't be.
