It is completely fine to use a moisturizer in combination with tretinoin. In fact, using tretinoin without a moisturizer is typically not recommended. Many doctors encourage their patients to moisturize while using it to avoid the risk of dry, peeling skin.
Since tretinoin is already a strong topical exfoliant, moisturizers, lotions and other treatments containing exfoliating chemicals, such as salicylic acid, should be avoided.
In general, the principles for purchasing best moisturizer to use with tretinoin: avoid alcohol and other substances that increase dryness, go natural, and choose basic, fragrance-free moisturizers wherever feasible.
