Acne.org Products
I just bought the BP from the Acne.org regimen, up till now I've used a 5% BP from the drug store since September. I haven't experienced any profound dryness from the 5% BP, but now that I started using the Acne.org 2,5% BP I'm experiencing a lot of dryness actually... Does anyone have any experience with this? I thought the 2,5 might be milder It is worth mentioning though that the 5% BP I used formerly didn't absorb very well and left kind of a white layer on my skin that would roll of when I applied moisturizer, while the acne.org BP really absorbs into my skin.
BP oxygenates skin, dries and peels inside the pores to kill acne bacteria deep inside the pores. If your other formula was not absorbing properly, chances are the active ingredients were not doing their work of oxygenating the skin which may be why it seemed "milder." Dryness and redness are common complaints in the early weeks of the Regimen but over time your skin adjusts and they become less of a problem. Try adding 5-6 drops of jojoba oil to your moisturizer to give it a boost as needed. My son is on week 9 of the Regimen but still gets dry skin from time to time. The jojoba oil gets his skin back in balance and helps with the flakes.
Wishing you great success with the Regimen! Hope it works as well for you as it has for so many others!
