Unless you have severe, widespread, and scarring acne, The Regimen is normally my suggestion for the most effective acne treatment.

Today is the end of my 4th week on the regimen. I am 17 yo male, mild acne and bright skin. Up until last week i only used the bp at night, and half of the amount Dan says, because my face couldnt take it, and ever since i tried using it at the morning my face is so red, people ask me why do i look like that. The regimen is not working currently, im breaking out as always. I understand it is because i only use the treatment at night, but it is not possible to do it twice for me.....help....?

Stop using it! In 4 weeks you should know if something is working or in your case making it worse! You're destroying your skin biome. It's now going to take another 4 weeks to restore it. Give your face a break for a while, especially if the acne is usually only mild...because it sounds like your skin looks worse now than it was before :(

Is your skin irritated, burning, hot to the touch? If so, I would stop using it - give your skin a break for 2-3 days. I ran into this issue too. I was afraid to stop using in fear of breaking out, but the break for my skin helped a lot.

To be honest, I found the BP in Dan's Regimen too powerful for me, although it says it's only 2.5%. I used the amount recommended and it gave me chemical burns.

I'm using Rodan and Fields Unblemish, which ALSO uses 2.5% BP and haven't had one issue with it, so I find it odd.

Its just a bit flaky at small parts and pretty red all over. I broke out this week while using the regimen so I dont wanna what would happen I were off it. Thx
