Adapalene 0.1% Cream

Adapalene 0.1% Cream is a dermatologist-recommended topical retinoid used for the treatment of mild to moderate acne, including blackheads, whiteheads, and clogged pores. It works by increasing skin cell turnover, clearing pores, and preventing new acne formation. Suitable for long-term acne maintenance and daily nighttime use.

• Whiteheads

• Acne-prone and oily skin

• How Adapalene 0.1% Works

  Adapalene belongs to the retinoid family. It helps the skin by:

  • Increasing skin cell turnover

  • Preventing clogged pores

  • Reducing inflammation

  • Stopping new acne formation

  • Smoothing uneven skin texture

  It is less irritating than older retinoids, making it suitable for beginners.

• How to Use (Directions for Use)

  • Apply once daily at night

  • Use a pea-sized amount for the whole face

  • Apply on clean, dry skin

  • Avoid eyes, lips, and corners of the nose

  • Start using every other night if irritation occurs

  During daytime:

  Use a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher), as retinoids increase sun sensitivity.

• Side Effects (Common & Temporary)

  These may occur in the first 2–4 weeks:

  • Dryness

  • Peeling

  • Mild redness

  • Burning or stinging sensation

  These effects usually improve as the skin adjusts.
