Can the regimen stop working?

After being on the regimen for 3 months, my skin improved dramatically up until the last few weeks. I've been going back to getting new inflamed break outs every single day, with more clogged pores I haven't had in areas for months. At first I attributed these break outs to the AHA I started using a couple of times a few weeks ago, but I haven't touched it for 5 days and I'm still waking up with new break outs. I have extremely acne prone skin, but I decided I'd try out the jojoba oil for the first time 3 days ago, and after 3 uses I got a cyst, followed by another one I woke up with this morning. I have a ton of new clogged pores every day, even though I stopped the jojoba oil. It seems like my acne is becoming severe and the regimen can't control it anymore. Has this happened to anyone? I'm so upset because I really thought this would work for me in the long term, since bacteria can't become resistant to benzoyl peroxide. But I have 3 cysts on my face and several pustules, I haven't had it this bad since before the regimen. I cleared up almost 100%, but that's completely stopped. I haven't changed anything in the last few weeks other than trying out AHA and jojoba oil. Could it be the moisturizer I've been using for about 3-4 weeks now? It only has 7 ingredients in it, and none are on any comedogenic ingredient lists except squalane, but that's rarely comedogenic.What's going on?

Hi lawrence1,

I'm sorry to hear about your skin. With regards to the moisturizer you are using, is it from Acne.org? If you are using another product recently, we would recommend that you switch back to the Acne.org Moisturizer and see if it will improve your breakouts.
