Hi, I've only used the Acne.org products for two days now, and I noticed that the following day after I used it once I had redness around my nose and cheeks. When I use the moisturizer my face feels very tingly as it dries. Is that normal? Or do you think I might be allergic to some of the ingredients in the moisturizer?

YES! Yesterday was the 6th day I was on the regimen and my face was extremely dry, red, irritated, and itchy. When I woke up today my whole face is swollen, red, and extremely dry! What do I do? I'm really positive it was the moisturizers that caused this.

Do I just not put any products on my face and let it heal on its own? Or do you have any recommendations on what I can do to reduce this

That redness does look like what others have experienced at the onset of using BP. How much BP are you using? You could try reducing the dosage significantly for about a week (and only using it 1X a day) to see if it goes back to close-to-normal (BP will always make my skin slightly red, even at a low dosage.), and use extra moisturizer to go easy on the skin. I have felt some sensitivity to the BP followed by the acne.org moisturizer, but I know personally that it works well in the long run after my skin gets used to the BP. I hope that helps! Keep us posted.
