It says to apply at nighttime, but I'm trying out Murad's acne complex kit, which I'm only using at night because of the unpleasant scent. My skin is at its "purging" stage so a lot of acne is coming to the surface. I'd like to combat this with Differin but I don't know if I can use it during the daytime. Help?

I Don't Know For Sure.. But If It Was Me Then... I Would Cause I'd Wanna Kick It's Butt!! I'd Try To Wear As Little Makeup As Possible Too... You Have Differin Cream Or Gel?? From The Derm Right??

I use Differin and the answer is no. It works better over night with no other products on the skin plus it makes your skin more sensitive to sunlight.

You can get away with putting it on a zit during the day, but yeah it's supposed to be used at night all over your face etc.
