Been on regimen for a month and my skin isn't getting better

Hi there, I've been on the regimen for 4 weeks and a few days but my skin in its fourth week actually looks worse than it did in my third.
I'm getting a couple of breakouts which are small and seem to go away quickly but they're still forming and in my problem areas I'm getting a lot of red bumps under the skin and lingering breakouts that won't seem to budge. There's a lot of redness in the particular areas.
I'm doing everything as guided. I took longer than most to ramp up to the full thick fingers length/2 pumps of BP because my skin is pretty sensitive. I only really started using that amount about 4/5 days ago, could my late usage of the full dosage be what's causing my problems right now? My skin is not looking like how the weekly acne.org chart says it should look.

Thanks

Hi Trudie,

I'm sorry to hear about your breakouts.

Many people are making common mistakes. Take this questionnaire to be sure you're right on track:

Also keep in mind that many people take 3-4 months to get clear. As long as you follow directions precisely as instructed and you are not using any other products in conjunction with The Regimen, you will clear up.

It's possible that the later use of the full amount of BP could have slowed your progress down. Usually acne treatments can take upto 8 to 12 weeks before seeing proper results. Don't worry you'll be clear in no time!
