I am using glyceric acid cream 12% w/w to whiten my dark patches of underarms. And also applying retino a 0.025% at night. It has been more than a week since application. I can see redness in my underarms. I am afraid if this redness will make my skin more darker. Kindly suggest me if I should continue its usage.
