When to Start Tapering off

Hey guys,

So I've been using the regimen for almost 5 months, and I haven't had any pimples on my face in over a month. I've been thinking that I may be starting to grow out of acne a little bit, as my body acne has cleared up a lot, and I haven't even been getting clogged pores on my face anymore. However, it's possible that it's just being on the regimen for so long that's keeping me this clear. But I was wondering when it's okay to like start tapering off the benzoyl peroxide? I currently use a little bit more than 1 pump, twice a day, but with all the dryness and having not broken out in a while, I'm thinking of tapering off to a pretty small amount. What is the best way to do this? Is being clear for over a month a good sign that I can start using less?

Hi lawrence1,

If you are already clear of any active acne, you may add or change one variable at a time to The Regimen and see if you will remain clear.
