It's not the moisturiser per se, it's the BP mixed with it. I think you'd have this problem with any moisturiser once applied on top of BP, it'll go away eventually!

LewisS is totally right. My first few weeks on the Regimen, my skin would burn intensely when applying the moisturizer. I'm at week 5 and it doesn't anymore. Just wait for your skin to get properly adjusted to the BP.

I agree with all the above comments ..im in my 5th week also and it doesn't burn or itches anymore

Ooo we're at the same point in the Regimen! Hope it's going well for you!

Yes we r ...my face has cleared up a lot ..I had a breakout due to my period but happy to say its gone away already ..other than ..my skin has lots of uneven tones due to the peeling ..havent introduced the AHA as yet

Glad you've cleared! Me too! I'm breaking out a little bit because of a new birth control, and I popped way too much of a whitehead last week so it's coming back with a vengeance. Also going away quickly. Breakouts heal so much faster now! I'm also mostly uneven, but it's better than having active acne everywhere instead. I've been using AHA the past week, I highly recommend it. It makes your skin feel so much smoother and lightens it a lot. Also gets rid of flakes!

Well I'm living till in guyana

..so I'm waiting for the AHA to arrive ..but I'm really excited about the Aha ..read some good reviews

How do u use the Aha? As Dan recommended it?

Agree with everyone else, its not the moisturiser its just your skin's reaction to the BP. It's an awful feeling, there is no denying it, but it does pass. Just hang in there till you get to the other side

As everyone has said, yes it is the BP. However a bit of advice, would be to change how long you wait between BP and moisturiser. I have personally experimented 2, 5, 10, 15, 20 mins before applying moisturiser in the beginning phases. The results were all interestingly very different. I personally find waiting around 15 mins was the best time for me to reduce irritation. You may of course be different, however it is worth a try- but of course make sure the BP is fully absorbed, good luck

Thanks for the replies! I really appreciate them. I've decided to keep using Dan's moisturiser for now. Would it be a good idea to use Olay's SPF moisturiser for sensitive skin in the mornings? Dan's moisturiser makes my face very greasy and I'm getting some disgusted looks from some customers at my job.

I must admit I'm not feeling very motivated about the regimen at the moment. When I woke up today I had gotten a large bump on the left side of my chin which I have never experienced before. I didn't think too much about it, but this evening when I was about to apply the regimen again, I noticed I had gotten another large bump on my right cheek. Is this bad? I really hope I'm not one of those 1-3% that are allergic to the treatment. I've tried so many things over the years without any luck. If I can't use the regimen, I don't know what to do...

underneath32: Thanks for the advice. So far I have always waited 15-20 minutes before applying the moisturiser.

Yeah, I've been mixing it in with my moisturizer every night, but I also take a few nights out of the week to use it by itself. I also spot treat in the morning. Such a great product haha.

Ok great ...thanks

Happy to see ..I have no new breakouts ...yayy ...hope it stays this way..starting my 6th week tomorrow

No one knows? I'm in my fifth week now and the bumps are still there.

citphil has come out with an oil free foam cleanser and oil free moisterizer with (15) sun block. I love it.
