Week 9 Day 3

Got my CSR BP Gel this morning



A fair bit smaller than I originally expected (people need to stop over-hype it's size!). It resembles a tube of toothpastes

The gel comes out as a greyish paste, upon contact with skin it turns VERY watery (this even normal?).

How am I suppose to tell whether it's spreaded correctly or not?


Skins better than last week, but still a disaster overall.

Edit: After my initial application, I felt that this is a bit more drying than quinoderm, probably due to the lack of emollients (lactic acid and white paraffin).
Need to ram up the use of eucerin

Week 9 Day 4

OK, some issues with CSR BP Gel here.

Firstly, when applied anywhere close to the eye, my eyes turns red and irritated. I did not have the problem with Quinoderm.

Secondly, as opposed to quinoderm, BP Gel does not conceal my redmarks. It kind of magnifies it.

I'll stick with it for the time being.

Not much to say ATM. Don't want to jinx myself

Week 9 day 7

I HATE MY FACE !

Breakouts everywhere, the area to the side of eyes and my forehead are filled with nodules.

Face is a total mess with LOTS of redmarks.

I hate myself. Don't think I can get back to uni with an acceptable face to show.

Week 10 day 6

After the rather emotionally-helpless-previous post, I thought I'd give it another update

I *think my cheeks are responding to BP. The reason being that the main area (specifically the middle) of the cheek had been relatively spots free. I don't know. I always have a period of non-breakouts then BAM, pimples surfacing like mad. I really hope this isn't that 'period'. *Touch wood*

Things aren't too optimistic at the moment. Redmarks are still rampant. Forehead's been a mess and I'm currently spot treating these nasty nodulistic/cystic fuckers.

And my eyes ! BP gel seeps into that region gives me irritated eyes all day long, hates it!

Note that I changed my morning moisturiser to Olay Complete Care Moisturising fluid sensitive with SPF15, along with some emu oil over it. This I *hope* will improve the redmarks.

One more thing, Eucerin's pretty expensive and I don't think I can keep up with the running cost at this rate...

Dan, Get that moisturiser OUT!

Week 11 Day 4

Here's another photo update:





OK. I think the breakout on my cheek area is finally over. Now I just got a large mess to deal with.

These hyper-pigmentations, and forehead acne....

[Week 12 Day 7]

*One* new spot on the each cheek, and a pretty nasty, painful nodule on the nose (it just has to be on the middle of the FREAKING NOSE).

Redmarks is now becoming my no.1 concern.

2 more days till university enrolls. Spotty face + A bugger on your nose will definitely leave a good initial impression
