probbly a couple of weeks
 
how old are you? because using retinol too young can actually be bad for you I started when I was 16 after my accutane and I got more pimples. it's better to start around 20-25.

yo, im almost 17 myself. i tried using retinol too and it gave me acne. dont use it. if you have bad skin already then you are either sick or really unhealthy. i used to cake my skin with products and had shitty skin, i now only use a cleanser every night, red light therapy before bed and occasionally a moisturizer and my skin got way better. just exercise, drink 1 gallon of water a day, and dont eat like shit and you will have good skin. alain delon in your pfp didnt use shit on his skin, neither did sean o pry or chico.

U have to push through the purging, real results come in about 3 months in. A lot of factors play into acne. Retinol is amazing if you use it correctly
