Yeah, you can literally pat your face dry and immediately add benzoyl peroxide, even if your face is still damp.

Next, if you can get the Treatment (benzoyl peroxide) to absorb in 10 seconds, I'd be surprised. Ideally you want to get the Treatment absorbed in there before you apply the Moisturizer, but there is no waiting between steps anymore!

Worst case scenario even, let's say you don't get all of the Treatment absorbed and add Moisturizer right on top, it should still be ok. This new Treatment is so good it can overcome just about anything.

Yay thanks, Dan! I appreciate you improving your product. You care a lot for your community. I been using your stuff for years.

I have been finding the new formula less effective and super watery. Im breaking out like crazy since you changed it and now Im looking at a new regimen. Its really upsetting. Youre charging more and I feel like Im getting less. My skin is horrible now too since the change.

Hello! New to these forums.

It is winter here in Canada, and even my super oily skin gets dehydrated here between November and Feb.

Is there a possibility of applying the moisturizer first BEFORE the benzoyl peroxide? Im sure you will say the answer is no, but I thought Id ask anyway. The reason is that my face so dry when I get out of the shower, I want to apply moisturizer when the skin on my face is wet. I feel like if I do that, my skin will better tolerate the BP.

I have the large bottle moisturizer, BP and jojoba oil from the acne.org store.

Thanks!

I wouldn't do that, but...you can mix the BP and Moisturizer together and do it that way. This new BP is so incredible that it's super versatile. It will absorb kinda no matter what. However, I think applying Moisturizer first might be a step too far. But even that honestly I don't quite know. You just might be able to. Like I always tell people, do The Regimen til you're completely clear and then add in 1 variable at a time, which in your case would be putting Moisturizer first. Then see if you stay clear with that change.

Ive started incorporating 0.025% Tretinoin 3x a week for the last 6 months, and my skin always turned red with the original BP formula. However, the new BP does not cause any redness. I find it is so much more gentler even when applying it the morning after Tretinoin. In addition, the new moisturizer is a powerful tool in keeping my skin moisturized with no irritation from the BP and Tretinoin.

been using your products since 2017 and they are far more effective than whats on the market.

Have you considering creating a sunscreen? The chemical sunscreens sold in stores are terrible for my skin

@dan Thank you so much for your reply. That makes total sense. Winters here can get so dry, and often my skin is dry and parched that I cant bear to apply the BP directly. Ill work on applying more moisturizer after BP application. Thank you again!
