Triluma? Experiences?

I have light brown skin and am mixed, when I get a pimple I always know that it will leave a nasty dark spot and it’s been so frustrating.

I have tried hydroquinone for a month on and taken long breaks and it seemed to help along with tret, so I decided this time around to try triluma and it’s all in one.

This stuff is Strong!! It has left the areas on my face where I applied pretty red and rosy and a bit sensitive. I’ve been using SPF 🧴 too.

What is the process when using this stuff? Is it like tret where it kind of gets a bit worse before it gets better? I am not using any other actives and am using a zinc diaper cream at night. I’m seeing a difference already but the redness is freaking me out
