    Considerations

    Normal or Combination Skin: Start using Exfol-Aβ„’ FortΓ© every other night for the first week to ten days, then gradually increase to twice daily. 

    Sensitive Skin, Arid or Dry Winter Climate Conditions: Begin with one application of Exfol-Aβ„’ FortΓ© every third night through the second week. Increase to every other night for a further week, and nightly thereafter. Eventually, you may be able to use the program up to twice daily. 

    Oily Skin or Hot Tropical Climate Conditions: Because your natural oil flow creates a film that slows the effects of the Vitamin A, the program can be stepped up more quickly. You may be able to start immediately using the serum once a day. As skin acclimates, begin applying Exfol-Aβ„’ FortΓ© twice daily.
