Hey everyone, just had a couple of questions about the regimen. I'm a male, just started using the regimen and I'm 20 with oily skin. I have tried accutane and it did work wonderfully, although the acne did come back, not as bad thankfully. Before I started the regimen, I read all these warnings about starting slowly so that your skin gets used to BP. After 3 days of using, I have not seen any redness, flakiness, itchiness or whatever on my skin. Besides, I only ever break out on the upper parts of my cheeks, nowhere else so I don't apply anything to the rest of my face. Is there any recommendations you guys can make for me since I'm only applying it on a small part of my skin & I don't have adverse reactions (yet at least)? Thank you all very much.
Well first of all, congratulations on having to only treat a small part of your face.
Ah yes, the 3rd day mark when many people (myself included) start to think, "hey, my skin isnt red, dry or flaky and isnt burning. I'll just start to go crazy with the BP as I obviously have very special tough skin". All I can say is DON'T DO IT.
Keep following the regimen instructions exactly as described. Be gentle, make sure you moisturise and build up slowly with your BP application. Its not until the 2nd week that most people start to feel the effects of the BP with dry, red and burning skin (plus often a very bad breakout). Keep with it though and it should help you to become completely clear like the rest of your skin. Good luck
