Give yourself breaks, like days in between if needed. If able spot treat only reduces chances of unaffected skin from become inflamed and irritated therefore ramping up oil production and potentially setting up for future breakouts.

 

You can lightly moisturize these days or even after BP use; however, I found this not as effective. Probably because you need to allow for time of action without barrier aka moisturizer overtop. You can moisturize everyday as well again person & facial region specific.

Burning, itching, redness, inflamed looking skin is a sign of distress. Do not over use. Drying is normal as BP causes top cell layer to dry and shed, hence the moisturizing and light-LIGHT exfoliation if needed to allow for new skin growth.

I find that differin gel,adapalene,is sold as OTC/generic at Walmart is quite effective in combo with BP. Expensive, but you can spot threat with this. SMALL, very small amounts are needed. You could use this on alternating days to use less BP. It only burns when/if skin top layer skin layers are removed which would be a sign of when not to use anything until regrowth occurs.
