Hi,

I've been on the Regimen for the past 2 months and recently switched to Dan's BP about a month ago. Everything's been going great when it comes to my acne, but a few weeks ago I noticed my eyes were being affected. I know there's other posts about the dryness, (which I also have) so I'll take the different advice for that. What I'd like to know is if the BP burns the eyes of anyone else who uses it. I do not put the BP on my eyes or around my eyes. However, whenever i'm applying it, there is a burning sensation in my eyes as though "fumes" of the BP gel are irritating my eyes. I then spend the next 30 seconds closing my eyes and waiting for the sensation to stop. Does this happen to anyone else? Is there an explanation for it? Now, I feel as though my eyes have become more sensitive since using the BP. I am constantly having to close my eyes from harsh glares and blink from a feeling of dryness. Has anyone else experienced this?

Thanks for the help!

Well phew! I'm just glad I'm not the only one. But I think it'll be okay. It didn't happen last night.. So, I think there may be a way to prevent it.

I have that same reaction and I haven't been putting it close to my eyes anymore either. I just close my eyes while I am applying the BP and for about a minute after and it seems to help.

I used to get watery eyes when i first started, it's normal but if your eyes are bloodshot red that's definitely not normal.
