Acne.org Products
Hello Anyone, Someone lol,
I have been using the Acne.org Regimen/Products for almost 2 months now, and I am pleased to say that my acne has cleared up rapidly. Using the 2.5% BP has helped me gain more control over my breakouts and I currently have no active breakouts, however I have only been able to work my way up SLOWLYto one pump morning and night due to increased sensitivity (dryness, flaking, redness,irritation,etc.) over the course of the entire two months. The flakes have a life oftheir own and cause my face to peel andtan unevenly causing blotches, they have to go! I would like to rub or scrape them off, but I dare not deviate from The Regimen or irritate my face further.I am having trouble combating these side effects with just the use of more of Dan'smoisturizer and Jojoba oil, and wanted to know if I could incorporate the AHA+10% Glycolic Acid. I understand that I have been using The Regimen for over a month, yet for now I am using less BP than the suggested amount for the average user at this time but plan to ease my way up to two pumps when I'm more comfortable.
Essentially my question is:
Even though I am struggling to adjust to the BP at 2 months with a dosage that's less than two pumps, couldAHA+ soothe my current symptoms and help my overall adjustment to the regimen?
Thank you!
Hi Sareidtate17,
Dryness is a common side effect of the Acne.org Regimen products but it does eventually go away.
Make sure that you are using 2 full pumps of The Acne.org Moisturizer twice a day or as often as needed to prevent dryness and irritation. You may also add in 5-6 drops of Jojoba Oil into the Moisturizer each time you apply it for additional moisture and then SLOWLY ramp up the volume of the Acne.org Treatment.
As for the flakiness, you may certainly start using the Acne.org AHA+.The Acne.org AHA+ will speed up the natural skin renewal process on a cellular level causing your skin to heal and replenish faster. This will help with skin renew faster than it can flake off. The Acne.org AHA+ will also help to fade any dark marks left behind from past breakouts.
If your skin could not tolerate the AHA+, you may start off by mixing 50% of the AHA+ and 50% Acne.org Moisturizer and apply the mixture every night. You can try this for a while and then switch back to using AHA+ full strength every 3 nights or so and see how that goes.
You may also start with a small amount of AHA+ and apply it every 2-3 nights and gradually ramp up the volume until your skin is well adjusted to the product.
