So, last night i took my first pill to start week 3 in my cycle. And, Boom, breakout today. Minor, simply small clogged pores, but I have about 5-6 when I average 1-2 now. I was a bit surprised as I took off my makeup tonight and saw them because I don't remember seeing them yesturday or even this morning. A bit annoying, yes. So, it's seeming like the third week of my BC cycle is the week I breakout. Anyone know if this will balance itself out in time? This is only my second month on the pill.
For the most part, my skin is looking good, I'm more and more confident without any makeup and my red marks are fading thought they are still tons of them and still visible. I don't do much anymore except remove makeup with Ponds wipes, wash with a 20% (yes, that's correct) salicylic face wash, wait about 30 minutes, then apply Tazorac .05 cream. All that's at night, I simply rinse my face with water when I wake up. So, safe to say, my facial routine is at it's most bare these days and i love it like that.
So we will see how this breakout goes. Obviously, I'm wishing it didn't come at all, but in comparison, it's very minor and I'm not going to stress over it.
