I finally decided to give Dan's regimen a try. The verdict is: YES! It's working wonders for me and I couldn't be happier.

However, I am ONLY using the "Treatment." To be honest, there's nothing special about the cleanser or moisturizer... just trying to get you to spend more money in my opinion. All you need is the 2.5% BP treatment.

The reason I didn't try Dan's products sooner is because I was scared of the dreaded "initial phase" where your skin becomes insanely dry, red, and peeling.

To my surprise I didn't experience any of those symptoms! I started with a very small amount for the first week (less than a pea size for my entire face) and have been working my way up ever since. I'm now using a decent amount of BP, only at night. I guess my skin is a little bit more dried out than usual... but it's nothing like I was expecting after reading about other people's experiences.

(Also, I quit using moisturizer about 6 months ago. Even with the BP I'm not using moisturizer and my skin is fine.)

One thing I should mention is that the regimen hasn't done anything to prevent the annoying nodules/cysts I get on my forehead every now and then =/. To be fair I think my cysts are triggered by diet, so a topical wouldn't be able to prevent that anyway. But just thought I would throw that out there!

The regimen HAS drastically helped my white heads and inflamed red spots I used to get; hardly get them anymore! Anyone thinking about trying Dan's product should definitely go for it. Feel free to ask any questions! Good luck! =)

It's nice to see the regime works for other people and not just me, good for you!

Although I have to disagrea with you on your opinion about the cleanser and mousteriser, theyre formulated to be a little irritating to the skin as possible, I don't know where I would be without the cleaners dan makes, everything here in england is as bad as it is over there, full of that SLS crap, my acne actually worsened because of thick pastey cleaners and scrubs, all because of one spot, back when it started.

As for the mousterizer, It's the only one I use at the moment, I like to stay safe with dans products but I'm at the point now where I'm balancing keeping clean skin, and the slightly longer side affects of BP, such as discoulored skin (which for me is really affecting me,) and the redness it still causes, and the flakes, I am looking for a mousteriser that I can use on the morning that will not look so greasy/be a little more mousterizing, (I hate how you have to use a lot of dans stuff to mousterize your face nicley, makes my face look really greasy.)

Guess I went a little off topic there, I'm glad you have that clear skin feeling that alot of us other org members feel!

Hey alexaaa.... Just a bit of warning... Your skin needs moisturizer, no matter how good it is reacting to the treatment right now... As you age, it is absolutely imperative to properly moisturize.... Over time, you will accelerate the aging process by skipping the moisturizing step... I, like you, never would moisturize, and my skin has paid for it with premature wrinkling... Also, keep in mind that BP does create free-radicals on your skin as a natural reaction. Thankfully, moisturizing does negate the negative effects of the free radicals created by BP... Just something to consider... Continued luck with the regimen and keeping clear skin...
