What Causes Oily Skin After Using Differin Cream?

I ve been using Differin cream 0.1 for just over a month now. It s certainly got rid of the bigger spots on my face but it doesn t seem to be getting rid of the papsules on my forehead. When using it, I notice that my skin after about half an hour has become very shiny and oily, and im guessing its because of the Differin cream. I d just like to know if my skin is supposed to react this way, because I was told by mt doctor that the cream should have a drying effect on my acne, when its actually doing the opposite. Should I go back to the doctors and ask for a prescription of the differin gel? Or is this normal for my skin to react like this?
