Stop few days: Would d/c the cream for a few days, which should alleviate the discomfort and redness. Then, would start again in following manner...apply pea size amt to entire face 1 hr before bedtime and wash off just before retiring. Do this every other night for 1 week. Then use nightly.When you feel ok, keep cream on overnight. Use Dove unscented soap to cleanse and remove the cream. See dermatologist soon.
