Suggested acne care: It is generally suggested to treat acne with benzoyl peroxide in the morning, followed by a mositurizer with sunblock, and a topical retinoid in the evening, so you should be fine. The evening wash with sulfacetamide is fine as well. All of these products help stop buildup of the debris and the bacteria that cause the problem.

Yes: Though you should wash your face with the benzoyl peroxide twice a day, before you apply the Retin-A at night, and then again in the morning to remove it.
