What makeup products would you recommend for those using Retin A and the dryness and flakyness associated with it?
I usually have really oily skin so all I own is thick, dryer foundations.

I also use Onexton (3.75% Benzyl Peroxide/Cindamycin) in the morning for my acne.

Don't you think the benzonyl peroxide will be too drying for your skin? Retin A makes skin very sensitive and can dry it out. If you have dry skin from it try to use a heavier moisturizer. Also I think foundation will be better for dry skin than a powder. Look for a moisturizing foundation with spf

That's what my dermatologist wanted to put me on. I did go and pick up a really heavy moisturizer by Cerave for at night and on dry patches during the day.

I used a tinted moisturizer when I was on Retin a.
