Did Anyone Not Purge Or Experience Severe Dryness When Starting The Regimen?

I'm just wondering if there's anyone out there who simply started the regimen and became clear - no severe dryness or "purging". Basically, I'm looking for simple success stories as encouragement :)

 

I have mild acne and sensitive skin, so I'm starting it a bit slow and hoping to minimize the adverse effects.

People with thick, tough oily skin tend to have fewer side effects I've noticed, and anyone who has previously used bp without big issues.

I got a little dry around my mouth (probably from talking etc.) but apart from that I'm fine, sometimes my skin will flare up and become dry even being 1 year into the regimen, overall I never really had many problems, the worst of my acne, or pretty much most of it was gone in a week or less :)

I was pretty much clear within 5 weeks, and totally clear within 3 months. But I did suffer in the second week with severe dry skin and a worse than ever breakout. I started far too quickly with the BP though.

 

Over a year later and i apply the regimen once a day and I remain perfectly clear.

 

Its worth a try :)

Thanks for your comments and the inspiration! I'm now on day 3 (I know that's still early) but things seem to be going fairly well. My existing spots have pretty much cleared up and have somewhat disappeared. I had a couple teeny tiny whiteheads pop up last night though, which is interesting (as I rarely get that kind). Skin is a little flaky, but that's only noticeable after I was my face/ before applying the BP and moisturizer. After applying those things you can't tell.

I'm starting week four. I've had acne for years, puberty was not my friend. I had some pretty tough drying, (that almost had me ready to quit) about week three but after getting the right moisturizer and jojoba oil that eased up in a about two days. Just the other day I no longer have the stinging or itching that maybe a side effect. I started a little quickly I think and had to adjust my portion so I'm not quite up to the full amount yet. Slowly is definitely the way to go! I hope your skin becomes as beautiful as it can be.
