Haha, i just got that one also. But i cant seem to find the "oil-free" one. I just got the normal one. Seems the same i think. But my skin is still flaking =( how long did u start the regimen stop flaking?
Hi, new member here. just started the regime 5 days ago. Got to say I'm already seeing some improvements. I was wondering what kind of moisturizers do you guys use? I just bought the Cetaphil moisturizing lotion, makes my face look damn oily. Decide to just use it during bedtime. Any moisturizers out there that doesn't make my face look shiny?
Qooguy : until now, my skin slightly flakes, depending on the % of BP i use. My derm prescribed 5% and its too strong for me, and so now i back on 2.5% thank god, and it doesnt flake at all
kit_fisto : I use neutrogena's moisturizer, scroll up for the link i posted its a really good moisturizer, because neutrogena is a brand recommended by dermatologists, and i personally like it as well
it as SPF, so i dont need to worry about the UV rays and stuff. Its important to buy a moisturizer with SPF because if not it will aggrevate acne.
I personally have no experience using AHA becaue i need to get clear before i can worry about the scars of pimples past

Wow, i have been on the regimen for about 6 weeks, and i still flake even though i am using 2.5% bp =(. But i add in jojoba oil,, and it helps abit. However, ii find tht the neutrogena moisture always turn white on my face whenever i apply it after BP. Do u have the same problem vague?
Just something to share with you guys. For people who faces turn red after the application of BP, well I have the same problem too. I thought it was the BP acting on my skin. But it turns out that its the moisturizer that's been giving me the lobster face. Before that I was using the Cetaphil lotion. After changing to the Neutrogena one, the redness subsided. So it may not be the BP that's giving you redness, it may be the moisturizer.
qoo: yes it does turn white, but i will smooth it out evenly so it disappears
bblack: ive had peeling lips, and i think the ones you can get from pharmacies are a lifesaver, they are white and the cap is usually pink or blue and it's shape is like a triangle, like your average tube with a rounded cap. i think its called vaseline lip therapy
Yes, the moisturizer might make your face red inititally but its one of the best around after you get used to it. jojoba oil might irritate your eyes though, so be careful not to let it get too close
petroluem (vaseline) might be slightly irritating on some skin. its good if you are not sensitive to it though as its cheap and really does the job well
Hey thanks for the input.
My derm gave me skinceuticals lip repair, it comes in a pump bottle and works wonders but its costly ($59). I'm currently using kiehl's lip balm for men, great travel size and works well too.
I used to have Neutrogena lip balm stick but it never helped for me.
I think in terms of products, everyone has different skin and we must all experiment with different kinds of creams before we know what our skin is suitable for
for my, salicyclic acid products do NOT work, even clearasil does not work.
However for my friend, it worked wonders.
Thank goodness the regimen worked for me, because I would never dream that in 6 months from pizza face i became normal looking
it takes patience and time, and meanwhile you've got this forum to keep you busy
hi fellow singaporeans.. are you guys still on the dan's bp regimen? hows the results so far?
I've been on the regimen for about 5+ months. I got results after 2+ months. I have to say, my skin is a lot better. Pimples that appear fades away after 2 days. Can't believe I spent so much money on products that don't work before. My cost so far for the regimen, $140 in 5+ months.
And if im going to use benzac 2.5%, how much is the full amount to use??Thanks alot!
For me I use half the length of my index finger when I first started out. As the weeks go by, I increase to a full finger length.
I dont use as much because my skin will flake like crazy and it feels like hard and dry, but i just spread it evenly over my entire face and let it dry before doing the sph 15 moisturizer. It works for now anyone having problems with acne on the back? ive got alot of scars ohno
hi guys
i have tried several things b4
from what i gather...
AHA - clear pores
BHA - clear pores too but go deeper
BP - kill Pacne
that all u need
so.....
arm with these knowledge i have been hunting for the product that will work for me
btw.. different skin different result..
it might work for me but u might not work..
but it follow's DAN regimen.. only not so much...
i started with Kiehl's blue series
cleanser, toner and moisturizer, Neutrogena on the spot..
i have replaced the
Kiehl's cleanser with Neutrogena Acne wash
because both contain salicylic acid *BHA* and it is cheaper
so i have been on
Neutrogena cleanser, Kiehl's toner, Kiehl's moisturizer Neutrogena on the spot...
for nearly 2 years.. mild breakout...
and i occasionally skip the toner cuz it is alcohol and kinda hash
and when i stop the BP.. i usually get break out after 2 days.. if laziness wahahhaa
not immediately..
but recently i found another product and i am so far loving it...
i replace the Neutrogena cleanser with
Hada Labo AHA/BHA cleanser
this cleanser doesnt come with fragrance so it smells awful, and no other nonsense ingredient
compare Hada Labo wash with neutrogena wash
my face doesnt feel tight and dry after the wash... and so far it looks very clear...
and also i have replace Kiehl's toner
with Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid lotion.. *pat approx 3 mins for everything to absorb
then follow by my Kiehl's moisturizer then Neutrogena..
my face doesnt feel that tight and super dry..
and so far.. so good!
Hada Labo cleanser *AHA/BHA*
Hada Labo lotion *HA* to hold moisture
Kiehl's moisturizer *BHA* *might try clinique's acne moisturizer*
Neutrogena On The Spot *BP*
hope it helps
