Hello..I haven't been around much on these forums, which was a good thing, as my skin has improved well. I only ever had light acne, but it still annoyed me.

Anyway, I started out on the regimen back in maybe the end of May. Worked up very slowly toward putting a lot of BP on. Things have gone well. I'm very happy with my chin/side of mouth areas, which were always problematic. I have in the last couple of months only had a couple of breakouts, which for me is 2/3 spots....BUT while on the whole I'm very happy with the improvements there has been a rather worrying development. My nose, which almost NEVER got a spot in the last 3 1/2 years of me having acne has in the last couple of weeks started sprouting several small spots. This is really unheard of for me. My nose has always had blackheads/clogged pores but has never been an area of concern with regard to actual acne.

I'm wondering if anyone has any experience of such a problem? At the moment, I'm not really sure what to do. Often I would put a layer of bp on my nose while doing the regimen mainly because I wanted to get rid of the excess/make it absorb quicker...but I haven't been doing that so much now. I don't know if I should put BP on or not...

The only thing I can think of is that maybe the sun is having this effect on me, you know how sun can cause skin damage and how the areas most affected by skin burn are the extremeties i.e nose/ears etc. However, I didn't have this problem throughout June/July when I was in London and it was very sunny..
