I know its a terrible thought but I stopped wearing make up and that pretty much eliminated all my blackheads and little bumps... but stopping the make up is no easy task. If you can do even just some days that will probably help u. I just wear mascara and blush now and my skin is clear except one little spot but the dryness and cakey feeling of the makeup is gone which is awesome. Try it just a little like only wear make up when u have school or a date or something but then leave it off the other days. I only put it on for special now but for awhile I would just put it on when I was going out then wash it off right when I got back. Hope this helps if you can stand to try it!

I actually didn't wear makeup for about three weeks dring December, because I was on school break and didn't go out much. My biggest problem is that I have really bad under eye circles, and discoloration around my mouth, so I always like to wear some sort of coverage, which I know is bad for my skin! Hopefully once my skin is completely clear, I'll be good with just a little concealer

I haven't posted in ages! I honestly don't have anything too exciting to say. The regimen has been keeping me pretty consistantly clear for the last few months. My skin isnt perfect, but it definitely been keeping me satisfied. I still struggle with patchy dry skin occasionally, and acne scars stay visible a lot longer.

I recently bought Dans AHA and it's breaking me out! at first I really liked it because it wa exfoilatung my skin really well, my dry/dead skin would basically rub off on it's own. It is breaking me out though. Currently I have a few whiteheads on my face and a HUGE crater of a pimple on my neck where I Also used the AHA. I've been using it at night after BP mixed with a little moisturizer. Dan says it brings his skin to perfection but that's certainly not the case for me. It takes off my dead skin but I'm not sure if I want to continue using it.

Apparrently as it turns out, AHA+ is SUPPOSED to break you out at first. Ahhh dumb me, I was ready to stop using it! It's not breaking me out anymore! It definitely exfoiliates my skin really well, I've been using it every night with a little bit of moisturizer. I just rub my skin, and my skin exfoiliates itself off, it's kind of gross haha. My skin on my cheeks is really glowy now because there's not dead skin covering it anymore. I hope I'm not over-exfoiliating, but a lot of skin comes off every night.
I am still struggling with blackheads (I don't think those will ever go away) but my skin is virtually clear. My battle right now is just flaking, which I still deal with whenever I'm not exfoiliated propery.

I know I keep promising to post pictures, but I always forget to take them when I don't have makeup on! I know most people don't care to see my skin with makeup since it's not true. Hopefully I remember to take a pic next time I don't have makeup on!

Hope the regimen is working well for everyone, it's been great for me!

Soo it's been over a year since my last update...yikes!
I actually bought the 16oz products last year I think in April 2010, and now, September 2011, I have just ran out of the same products. As you can see, I wasn't using very much at all.

Just an update with how my skin has been going...The regimen has kept me very happy with my skin, only an occasional bump or two, but not very often. This past month my relatively healthy diet went downhill and I ate a ton of horrible stuff, which made me break out like crazy. I never thought that food possibly affected my acne, but it definitely did. Now I'm back to eating healthfully, and I have purchased a new batch of products, so I'm hoping they'll go away quickly.

I just received my new order, with the new moisturizer formulation, which I've read a lot of people complain about. I just applied it for the first time and it's definitely left my face a lot more matte. Not necessarily dry, but a lot drier than the old moisturizer formulation. I'm hoping the new formula doesn't affect me negatively.
