Acne.org Products
I am on the Acne regimen and I love it!. However, I am at a point where I would like to incorporate 2 serums such as Niacinamide and Arbutin for my hyperpigmentation. I am not sure if I should apply them before (since they are serums) or after the benzoyl peroxide. The reason for the confusion is that they all require the face to be dry and BP (according to the regimen) requires it to be applied before anything.
Hello SuaveDory,
Our best advice is to use The Regimen products. They will get you completely clear and will make your skin look nice and even toned and non-inflamed. Thats whats most important in order to prevent future hyperpigmentation and scarring. Make sure you use them diligently and you will get completely clear.
However, the hyperpigmentation itself can take several months or longer to fade. To speed this process you can add Acne.org AHA+ which will help increase skin cell turnover and allow your acne marks to fade faster. But nothing will help hyperpigmentation fade extremely quickly. Its only time that can do that. Remember that hyperpigmentation are not scars, however, and will fade with time.
