I am using the 2,5 % BP cream for 1 week now. And I can't see any bigger improvement. My acne are STILL here and my whole face is red. I know it can't get any better in just 1 week, but my face looks horrible, and I can barely put any make up on because my skin is peeling like crazy off. mad.gif And it hurts a little bit.
Before i started using this prod. I was going to the dermatologis. It was a wate of time. My skin was even worse!!!!
I FEEL LIKE GIVING UP FROM EVERYTHING...

Is that normal for the BP treatment? ( hurtful peelings, redness.)
I tried put a little bit of coconut oil on the red zones. It didn't helped much.

ANY ADVICE? Thank you. surprised.gif

Coconut oil can clog pores. As much as I love the feel and reduction in inflammation I get from coconut oil I get clogged skin covered pores. The j oil was very helpful and the pinned post at the top about dry skin helped a ton.

Yes the BP pretty much ruins your life at first but make sure you are managing the symptoms. The first moisturizer I used after BP literally burned me. The oil of Olay sensitive was better and I am trying Ponds dry skin cream right now. I have ordered the kit so I can try the moisturizer here but so far I like what I am using but worry about causing more breakouts.

I'm on the exact same boat as you. I'm kinda ignoring the first 2 week symptoms cause I know it will get easier from there.

This is a very common reaction. Make sure you use plenty of sunscreen when you are out as your skin is extra sensitive from all the peeling. If the peeling is a little too much you can give it a rest for a day and use it as a spot treatment until you can handle the discomfort! Good luck:)
