I was taking Reclipsen and constantly breaking out. Ive been on the Acne regimen almost three full weeks and have some under the skin pimples that have been there for almost 2 weeks. I recently ordered the AHA so Im hoping that will exfoliate the skin and clear up my remaining blemishes. Any information on birthcontrol + acne would be greatly appreciated!

Is there an actual reason to wait 15 minutes after washing and after bp? And is there evidence that doing everything the same except for waiting the 15 minutes makes a difference?

Can you go further into why that is so important? I am sure that I am not the only one wondering this… Why do we need to wait until the face fully dries (15 minutes) to apply the medication?

After that I started taking oral contraceptives. It took being on the pill about 6-7 months before I could stop the regimen (it seemed like a really long time especially because I was expecting 3-4 months), but now I am usually very clear, and - although I still make daily use of your cleanser, moisturizer and AHA - I only have to use Benzoyl Peroxide for about four days each month when I get a mild breakout on my forehead. The strange thing is that before starting the pill, my cheeks were my big problem area but I'd never broken out on my forehead before.

Birth control is the only thing that works to take care of about 60% of my breakouts. the other 30 is retin-a and the rest is up to chance. mostly clogged pores and blackheads that i have to deal with now. one thing at a time right? just saying, if your breaking out around your chin/jaw area it is most likely hormonal and that leaves you with only a few options to control :) I just wanted to say, from personal experence.
