Hi, I'm a big fan of your product and I have been using your acne care set for about 2years (on and off)

I have restarted using your product after resting out on BP for 6months because my face was clear during the cool weather in winter and spring. Now that it became summer, my face is breaking out again

My experience has taught me humid weather is the cause of my acne, I am a Korean living in Korea. Summer in Korea is especially hot and humid, although not as hot and humid as other southeast asian countries. (when i was in Bejing for an year, I had no breakouts because the summer there was hot and DRY)

Anyhow what I wanted to ask was this : you said you have to use 3 full pump of BP, night and day, but the redness is not going away even though I have lot of experience using your product (over the course of 2 years) I think this is because Asians have thinner skin than caucasians or black ppl. Should I be using only 2 or 1 1/2 pump of your BP to avoid redness? Will your BP work if I only use that amount?

Any feedbacks from ppl from same skin types (Japanese, Chineses, Korean.. etc) with successful experience with BP would also be very much appreciated! Thank you !

I'm chinese and have been using BP for about two weeks, my problem is with flaking more than anything else, I use the tube so I use about two knuckle lengths (2 pumps?) at night, but in the morning I have to use less (~1.25 knuckle length) just because of irritation. I would just try using one pump, then work your way up. I think asians have it rough with acne, totally unfair.

i am chinese and have extremely oily skin and very bad acne. over the years i have doused my face in all kinds of intense acne products to the point where my face hasn't met a product that causes dryness/redness in a loooooong time.

i am filipina and i don't use the full amt. but i used to, and the redness went away after i had been on the regimen for a few months. i think you should lower the dosage, and see what happens. i can't tell you for sure that you won't breakout bc of it, but i think it's worth a shot. and if you do start getting more pimples .. you could always use a lil bp as a spot treatment, and go bck to your regular dosage after they clear up. i would suggest using a sunscreen if you don't already. and i've never heard of asians having thinner skin than others, but i sure wish i was born with my mom's beautiful asian skin. that would have been super helpful in life.
