ok so i started the regimen a week ago using my own products. im starting to get clogged pores in places i dont normally break out in....im used to exfoliating every day with ether a scrub or acne pads so this 3 step is very different for me. my main problem areas are under my nose above the lip and my chin! my acne is not terrible but very consistent so by the time one goes away i get 1 or 2 more so im always left with red marks! so i geuss my question is should i add back in my acne pads for exfoliation? my skin looked good on day 4 but got really dry then broke out and looks clogged now....i look super oily with 2 pumps of moisturizer ....please help ....almost 27 and just want my acne gone!!!! its so depressing

my products are
first aid beauty red clay cleanser
benzaclin
cetphil oil control moisturizer ( my face hates all moisturizers)

The new spots must be your skin purging. Trust me....no new products until you are actually clear. You are only a week into it and some people actually break out even on the second month into the regimen so have a little patience.

To be honest, I have not used any of the products on your regimen. I hope you looked at the ingredients and made sure they aren't comedegenic and are gentle to use for your skin (apart from the BP).
