I have been using RentinA just like it says wait 20 minutes after cleansing before applying use a pea size amount. I have used this before this has never happen, and now my face is burning some parts are peeling and my forehead looks glossy. I am laying off this for now but do you have any suggestions on what I can put on my face to stop the burning? my moisturizer is making it burn even more. Cetaphil and Neutrogena are my go two. thanks!

You could try aloe vera?

Have you been applying it everyday? And have you been using any exfoliating products in addition? To stop the burning...aloe vera will soothe your skin. Pure aloe vera from the health food store. The stuff sold in the drugstore will contain fillers so you won't get 100% pure.

I been using it every other day as per my Dr. I will NOT use my clairasonic because I think it might make it worse. I am going to the health food store to pick some up. thanks a lot for the recommendation.

Ouch!! I don't know what percentage you're working with but my husband always starts them out using a staggered method. Starting out using once or twice a week then building it up from there. It sounds like your skin has been thinned out by the RA hence the peeling and skin looking glossy. In the meantime keep your skincare super simple till your skin stabilizes itself. A non-active ingredient moisturizer (preferably one that is fragrance free as a well), a gentle cream based cleanser that is sulfate free and no foundation. And yes...definitely do not let you skin anywhere near your Clairasonic. I feel so bad that you are going thru this. :((

Also pick up some Eucerin which is waterbased and will help heal your skin.
