Day 31 Update:
Hi acne.org!
I put another thin layer of BP at night, and moisturizer, and I woke with no breakout! YAY! Also 5 active pimples were completely dried and are not flat!
So what me and a friend of mine have decided to do it count our actives every week. Some people would call me crazy for doing this. But I can do this. And it could be some hard, but I feel like it could help me know that I am making progress and therefore helping my confidence. Before starting the regimen I counted 50+ actives sore pimples on my face. The majority on my cheeks. Yesterday, after finishing my morning regimen I counted and I had roughly 35 active sore pimples. I know it is still a big number, but I hope that this number goes down as I finish my second month.
My right cheek is by far the worst with about 15 on that cheek alone. I am hoping for some relief!!!!!!
Anyway stay strong everyone!
It's nice that you have a real life friend going through this without you! I think it's a good idea to count the actives I might try that myself 🙂
Happy to hear you are improving. I had a good day as well! 🙂

Yup, but don't count too often because if the number goes up the next day you don't want to be bummed out. So maybe like once a week or ten days!:)
So happy that you had a good day! Hopefully we have more posts like this from now on!
Day 26 Update:
How is everyone doing today? I am trying to fix my picture so that I am upright instead of sideways haha I don't know how that happened!
Anywayssss¦.my skin. My skin is just blah blah blah. Nothing positive to report, except my attitude haha. I am thinking of posting every few days so that I don't bore you guys to death with my similar posts¦Not sure yet though?
More breakouts, a lot of red everywhere. My forehead is still looking pretty awesome, and my chin is getting a few small pimples though. Have not seen any cysts on them so far so that is great!!!
The reason I hate cysts the MOST is because when I get them I will get like 1-3 DEEP under the skin cysts that connect with the other cysts. This sucks so bad. I have a connecting underground railroad of cysts under my skin haha! What the heck right?
Thanks Everyone
TTYL.
I totally also have the railroad cyst thing too! I thought I was the only one, lol. I hate them so much! How long does it usually take for your cysts to go away?
Anyways, good luck on the regimen and hang in there! 🙂

WOW I can't believe someone else has been too haha. They suck so bad. But I think they take awhile to go away since they are connected to each other which makes it like they are 'feeding off each other" so for me personally it could take anywhere from 5-8 days depending on the size they are. Sometimes it has actually taken longer! UGH! They are so incredibly painful too right?.
And thank you very much!
Day 32 Update:
So, I am in the middle of week five and I feel good. Since my jumbo breakouts last Friday I have only seen maybe 5 pimlpes in total! (Normally about 5 everyday !) Things look like they are healing this week. However, I am prepared for another bad breakout sometimes soon. Bleh. So excited to have an improvement week! LOVE IT
Stay strong everyone.
I just wanted to mention that I really like your attitude towards this. Most would probably have given up by now, so it's great that you're sticking to it. Good luck!
Thank you! I am trying to fuel myself and others reading my regimen log that fighting acne is not easy, but through the power of positivity and endurance anything can be achieved. yay.
Day 33 Update:
Yes! Had another good night worth of healing!
Okay readers. So you are reading my post and probably wondering, 'Is this girl showing any improvements even though she breaks out almost everyday?' (haha okay or maybe you're not wondering that, but I would be lol) And I would just like to answer YES. Even though I am breaking out regularly there is still improvement. In my pictures it is hard to tell but my face is getting very flat compared to first starting the regimen. I would say I have had a 30-40% improvement since starting this regimen. So hopefully I should be clear in little over two months. But my skin has a mind of its own so it can't be to sure haha. But let hope shall we?
So there. It has been 33 long and sometimes unbearable days with 30-40% improvement. YAY!
Have a wonderful day everyone! I hope everyone is sticking to their regimen (cough cough mystory, aby, oceanbreeze, and other regimen users )
TOODLES!
I AM HAVING AWESOME IMPROVEMENT EVERYONE!!!! I WOULD SAY AN 80% IMPROVEMENT SINCE STARTING THE REGIMEN! ALL MY HEALING STARTED HAPPENING SINCE SATURDAY AND THINGS COULD NOT BE GOING BETTER!
**Stick to you regimen!!!!!!!
I am so so so so happy to hear this my dear! You deserve this so much!
I decided to come here less often as I was becoming a little obsessive.
I will continue to update my log but not every day and with more meaningful update.
All I can say is that I had a good few days as well but I don't want to rush and write about it until I make sure this is for real.
My skin was becoming really dry and look bad because of this so I am trying the night time only again.
I will continue to play around with this until I get it right.
How are you dealing with the dryness? Do you have chunks of skin peeling off? I can't stand that anymore it's so gross...
Also I really wanna see pics of your improvement if you can post!

I am not having any dryness or flaking because I stopped increasing the for a while now. You really have to stick to the same amount for a while before the dryness can even start subsiding. And also find the amount of BP that works with you own skin and then commit to that amount so that the dryness and begin to subside or else when you are always going to be consistently dry and flaky it could cause your pores to clog and bring an unwanted breakout.
Also I will be posting a picture soon and I am going to circle the remaining pimples because there is so much brown spots that it looks like pimples when it is not, that is why I am waiting for them to fade a little so that you can actually see the good results.
And I think it a good idea that you don't update everyday. I think I might start doing it every other day or so too, so that my updates dont sound so similar.
Commit. And you will get clear soon 🙂
I hope you have a wonderful weeks worth of healing 🙂
Here is a continuation of my week by week progress with week 5 added to it!!! Tomorrow I start week 6!!!
I had a very mild breakout last night, but this week has been really wonderful in terms of healing.
Before The Regimen: 50+ actives.
Week 1: Mild, noticeably improvement, but still breaking out. Dry, flaky, tight, red. (Half a finger of BP) (Scale of 1-10: 9!)(10 being the worst)
Week 2: No improvement, BIG BREAKOUT! My face became worse than week 1. All pimples were huge and raised high above the skin. BIG breakouts that brought deep and big pimples and numerous cysts. Dry, flaky, RED. (Full amount of BP) (Scale: 10!)
Week 3: Slight, slight improvement. Skin is flatter. Still breaking out a lot maybe 5-6 every morning. This week the pimples are smaller but I was still getting some cysts. No longer dry, flaky, or red. (Full amount form now on) (Scale 7.5-8!)
Week 4: BIG, BIG, BREAKOUT! Probably around 10-15 bloody actives came overnight. This breakout affected my whole face. Cysts, and all. Face began to swell and became painful to sleep. Breaking out continually every day with 1-5. Not a pretty week. (Scale 9-9.5) (35 actives)
Week 5: AWESOME AWESOME improvement!!!!!!! Recovered from last weeks breakouts. This was the first week where I could see WAY more good than bad. This shows you just have to stick it out because till now there has been very minimal results. Got a few pimples this whole week! I broke out anywhere from 0-2 actives everyday this week. (Scale 4)
I am scared though because I that time of the month is coming soon (yeah gross I know lol), and I am praying that I don't have another huge breakout. Anyway stay true to your regimen!
*******Also I am going to start update once every few days because I do not want to sounding so repetitive in my updates.
But always feel free to ask me any questions or message me because I will check those daily and get back to you asap!

Hello everyone!
I am coming on to do a quick update for you all!!! Day 36:
So currently I am still having some great healing, and my acne seems to be slowly disappearing! I will still get some mild breakouts every other day or so, however it pales in comparison to what I was experiencing two weeks ago!!!! YAY!!! I am thankful to this regimen! I pray for this regimen and I pray all of you will be clear right along with me
And I would just like to say thank you for everyone reading my post and giving me hope, and for those people declaring that my positivity helped them. It is my pleasure to make your lives a little easier You are all truly wonderful and are always in my prayers.

How much bp are you using? Are you using the full two pumps?
And congrats on your skin improving so much! I'm so happy for you!!
Yup! I have been using two pumps since after being on the Regimen for two week!!! And thank you so much
Day 37 Update:
No new breakouts. Things are drying out quickly. I counted the amount of actives left on my face and there is about 12!!! And half of which are going to be dried out tomorrow!!!! To put this into perspective, last week I had 30, andbefore the regimen I easily had over 50 actives!!!! I am so happy to finally see some results.
Hang in there everyone! Ask me for some help if needed!
Day 40 Update:
Hello everyone!!!! So I had a minor breakout 2 days ago, but today it is all gone. I am still about 80% clear which is great My left cheek has maybe 1 pimple, and my left still has about 3. My foreahead and chin carry the rest of the 6 pimples. So overall, I am satisfied on my resuls after 40 days. YAY!
Stay with your regimen everyone. Believe in your regimen and it will work.
love
thereisalwayshope
Day 42 Update!
So yes I am still experiencing improvement everyday!!! Tomorrow I am starting week 7!!! It so really hard for me to believe I have made it this far to be honest. I still have a handful of actives but I am sure they are all well on their way to completely disappearing!!! Yay!! On Sunday I will bring you the active pimple count, which continues to come down every week since week five.
I am thankful to the regimen and to everyone one of you who read my post. I appreciate it
Stay true to your regimen everyone. The results are worth the struggle!
