Hello everyone. The past few months I have had very good skin results using a more expensive brand of tretinoin cream than what I just recently had to get since that other Brand for some reason no longer covered by our insurance. Anyway, I was wondering if switching brands of creams could cause break outs? I started using this other brand about 2-3 weeks ago and this past week and a half or so, I have been having way more problem spots than I have in a long time, with the other cream I had been using, my face was clear for many months up until now. I know the spots are not terrible, but going from clear, to a few new spots every other day was kind of annoying.

I was thinking maybe from switching, I would have some sort of initial break out or something? I am pretty confident this new brand of cream is the cause of this little breakout since all my products I use have not changed.
