Can I use Retinol with Benzoyl Peroxide?

Use at different times (AM / PM)

Why

In published literature benzoyl peroxide can oxidatively degrade many retinol formulations when layered together.

How to use them

Benzoyl peroxide in the AM, retinol in the PM, or alternate days.

🇮🇳 For Indian skin & climate

Both can be drying in air-conditioned or arid conditions; buffer with moisturiser.
