Too much benzoyl peroxide?

So I started the regimen last Wednesday, which would make today my 11th day on the regimen. I followed the directions for using the benzoyl peroxide and started with a pea size amount once a day for a week before using the full amount. My skin was reaction very well and started clearing up a significant amount already. I've noticed since this past Wednesday, when I started using the full amount, that my skin started breaking out a lot more. I'm not sure if it's too soon to tell, but I'm wondering if the irritation from the full amount of benzoyl peroxide is causing too much irritation and causing breakouts.

Hi amandarugg,

Irritation and breakouts is a common side effect of the Acne.org Regimen products however it does eventually go away. Just make sure that you follow directions precisely as outlined and you are not using any other products while on The Regimen.

Also keep in mind you should also be as gentle as possible when applying the Acne.org Regimen products. Don't rub. Use a feather light touch when applying the products and you should clear up within a few weeks.

If your skin could not tolerate the full amount of the Acne.org Treatment, you may reduce the volume and SLOWLY increase the amount until your skin is fully accustomed to the Acne.org Treatment.
