I have been using BP for around 3-4 months by now and I apply it on twice daily. I have seen major improvements to my skin and I am very happy with the results. The problem is that I think that I've used it long enough and I want to stop using it. What is the best way to stop using BP and should I stop using it if my skin is looking clear right now?
Rather than stopping cold turkey, I would experiment with lowering the dose. Try going down to 1 full pump twice a day for 2-3 weeks and see how things go. If you don't break out, then try applying just once a day for 2-3 weeks and see how things go. If you're still clear, then go down to a half a pump for another couple of weeks, and so on. Be prepared to give it a good 6-9 months without treatment before declaring yourself "cured."But if acne returns at all, I would resume treatments to maintain your clear skin. Many BP user can get away with using less to stay clear, it's just a matter of doing a little trial and error to see what your skin needs.
