yea, I am going to try this regimen since BP is the only thing that has ever worked for me

I have the sensor excel razor and I have the Neutorgena oil free moisturizer with SPF 15

can I use the Proactiv Repairing Lotion (contains 2.5% BP) instead of the BP gel

can I use AloeGuard Antimicrobial Soap with 0.5 Chloroxylenol as a cleanser since I just ordered it

or should I use a recommended cleanser like cetaphil

I was using the proactiv repairing lotion as well in the beginning. I still had some left and didnt want it to go to waste. I wanted to follow the clean skin regimen correctly so I eventually ordered the BP gel. When using any BP, start out with a small amount.. otherwise you'll dry out your skin like I did to mine. My neck got bright red, dry and itchy... and its still healing! ugh. Oh reason why my neck got so icky was cause I wasnt using a moisturizer in the beginning!

GOOD LUCK.

You can probably use that bp without a big problem. If I had some around I would use it until it was gone. It'll save you some money. The thing I noticed was that when I used a generous amount of it, the scent would sit under my nose and stink all day.

a tip, dont use proactivs repairing lotion. Why, when i used it like dan said the smell is horrible and made me sick sometimes when i would put it on before bed. dans bp gel is awesome stuff, if u can by this stuff. i used proactiv before but proactivs repairing lotion never got me as clear as i am now with dans regimen.
