Hello,
I'm closing in on my 3rd month on DKR and I've just run into a problem. I'm starting to break out on my chin and right cheek again, which really set back my progress. I think it could be either the Cetaphil or AHA, which both have been known to break people out. I'm thinking of getting off the AHA for a while and seeing if the breakouts cease. Also, the winter is coming and my skin, which was getting better, is now slowly getting dry again. Whenever I eat I get a few flakes around my mouth, but not nearly as much as beforehand. I started waking up again with flakes, which I thought ended a few weeks ago. What should I do?
You probably need to step back a bit and check if you are still doing the regimen steps correctly. Sometimes without us noticing, we slowly change things. Like cleansing for too long, or not using emough BP, not taking the time in between to let the product absorb...etc,etc. Also, did you add any new products into the mix? Or change to a new product?
Getting dry could be because it's getting colder over there and the moisturizer you're using might not be moisturizing enough for your skin at this time of year. Don't get discouraged though, set backs happen sometimes on the regimen, you just need to get back on it.

Thank you for the advice. Now that I think of it, I have been using a bit more pressure during cleansing because I heard it helped with flakes. Also, I put in the Bp and it takes over 30 minutes to dry, but sometimes I'm in a hurry and can only wait until it has JUST dried. I'll be more gentle and see how it works
