Is it ok to use neutrogena pore refining exfoliating cleanser and then wait a while and apply retin-a micro at night ? its an alpha/beta hydroxy wash

Try it: It may be a bit much and excessively drying to use that combination. If you tolerate it and it does not dry your skin out too much, go for it as we love tretinoin as an acne medication and "wrinkle cream".
