Recently I've been using adapalene (Differin) gel for my acne, and it's been working fine until recently. My chin has gotten all red and flaky, and when I tried exfoliating with baking soda it started to hurt a lot :( it also stings when I tone and moisturize. Suggestions?

Stop using the gel!! It happened to me once (with another product) and once I stopped using it I got better.

For now I would suggest you wash your face with warm water, moisturize thoroughly or even do a hydrating face mask. Don't exfoliate since that'll irritate the skin even more. I hope you get better!

Do you think putting honey on it would help? I'm planning on doing a honey mask on my face later.

I don't recommend you trying anything new. For now just focus on moisturizing :)
