I have been on tretinoin for a while, and now that I have increased the % at the recommendation of my derm I am flakey as hell. I am looking for a GENTLE physical exfoliant, preferably something that isn't a face wash type thing since my skin hates everything and breaks out even if the water changes 😒

I have found oil cleansers to be THE savior when it comes to getting rid of flaky skin. They are usually very gentle. If a physical exfoliant is the only option then I agree with @CorbinDallas that konjac sponges are excellent!
