Hello,
Please can someone explain me the right amount of Bp pumps that I need to put on my face week by week. Because I have the bottle of Bp and it's very confusing for me to know the right amount to put on my face since the description on the web site is for the tube.
I'm on my 4th week of the Regimen and I've tried to put 2 pumps of it but it's literally burning my cheeks and around my eyes and I dont know if it's too early to put 2 pumps by the 4th week. My skin is very itchy, flacky an dry even if I put on the moisturizer and i have light to medium acne. I'm gonna explain to you the amount that I did so that you can see if it's correct ?
Week 1 : 1 pea sice of Bp X 1 day
Week 2 : 1pea sice of Bp X 2 day
Week 3 : 1 pump and half X 2 dy
Week 4 : 2 pumps X 2 day
Should I put less amount of BP or I can keep it that way ?
Than you so much for your help !!
How are your results so far? There is no need to keep upping the dose if you get good results at one pump twice per day.
You should avoid having dry skin throughout the day. Having flaky skin indicates a lack of moisturizing. Be sure to moisturize plentiful. You can do so throughout the day, whenever the need arises.
I have been using one full pump, twice per day, for a year now. I get good results this way.
Edit:
Just tried fitting two full pumps on my face, definitely feels like overkill. I would recommend sticking with one pump for a while. Especially since you are just starting out!
I've actually never gauged it based on the description, at least not after the first month or so. I use the pump and simply dish out what I need on my index finger until I completely lather all of the areas I intend to. I start with the area around my mouth, then hit the nose, rising above the bridge and hit the forehead falling down finally towards the temples and finishing just below the cheeks. Try not to get the BP so close to your eyes. It's more difficult than it sounds, practice makes perfect. I still have a burning sensation every now and then as I have to apply BP between my eyes for fear of a breakout there. I also hit my neck and the middle of my chest every time I apply BP. I'd say I use between a 1 and 1.5 pumps doing all of that, been at it for about two years now.
