I just don't get it. BP has worked for me for years and got me through college. Even after college I was clear for two years and then a few months ago, boom, it came back. BP no longer seemed to work.

I'm eating well, I'm exercising, I'm applying BP, I'm taking my vitamin D... I just don't know what's going on.

This is awful.

Your skin has developed immunity to bp. Its something common. The longer we use smth on skin, the less effective it becomes either it is bp or just an anti dandurf shampoo! Give it a rest for a while. Try tea tree oil, it is said to have a similar effect.

newton, i feel you on that. I did The Regimen for a year and it was hands down one of the best topicals i used - well after a year i developed facial eczema/allergy from it. Still haven't found a replacement. Just yourself off and take it one day at a time.

yeah, change it up....try salicylic acid, or mandelic acid

drop the BP- also clean up your diet if you haven't, no processed foods and minimal sugar

get some sun (I know it's a no no) but a little bit every day, 10-15 minutes without makeup or sunscreen makes all the difference to me...I'm not suggesting you get burned just a little bit
