Hi guys,

I've struggled with acne on my chin for a couple of years and it wasn't until I finally found a good dermatologist that I realised I've been doing my skin routine wrong - my T zone was oily and I've been using products for sensitive skin which made it overproduce oil.

Anyway, she changed my routine and simplified it with a new addition - Duac (1% clindamycin and 5% benzoyl peroxide).

She told me to use Bioderma Sebium moussant as cleanser and after that to put Duac on chin in PM. AM is just washing face and sunscreen. I was confused that there was no moisturiser, but I went with it.

My chin is acne free and has been for 4-5 weeks as long as I've been using Duac but my chin is now itchy, red and overall irritated.

Any advice on how to calm it down? Use Duac every other day? Incorporate a moisturiser before/after Duac?

P. S. I'm using Neutrogena Hydro Boost Water Gel cream
